Follow these simple steps and you’ll be able to watch your favorite NFL team, even if they’re not playing in your market.
Introduction
If you’re an NFL fan, but you don’t live in the same market as your favorite team, you may be wondering how you can watch their games. Thankfully, there are a few different ways that you can catch NFL action from out of market, and in this article, we’ll go over some of the best options.
How to Watch an NFL Game Out of Market
In order to watch an NFL game out of market, you will need to have a satellite or cable subscription that includes the NFL Sunday Ticket. The NFL Sunday Ticket is a service that allows you to watch any NFL game that is being televised, regardless of what market you are in. You can also stream NFL games out of market on your computer or mobile device with NFL Game Pass.
Find the game you want to watch
The first step is to find the game you want to watch. You can do this a couple different ways, but the simplest is to just go to NFL.com and look at the week’s schedule. Find the game you want to watch, and note the network it’s on (ESPN, FOX, CBS, or NBC).
Consider an NFL Sunday Ticket
If you want to watch every game, every Sunday, consider NFL Sunday Ticket from DirecTV. You can get it without DirecTV service, but it’s pretty expensive—$293.96 for the season.
There are a few packages available, but the basic one gets you all out-of-market games on Sundays. You can watch them on your TV, mobile devices, and game consoles.
You can also get the NFL Sunday Ticket with Red Zone channel. This channel switches between different games showing all the action in and around the 20-yard line—AKA the red zone.
Use a VPN service
If you want to watch an NFL game that’s not being shown in your market, you can use a VPN service to connect to a broadcasts in another city.
First, you’ll need to find a VPN service that has servers in the city where the game is being broadcast. We recommend ExpressVPN because it has strong security features and fast speeds.
Once you’ve signed up for a VPN service, download and install the software on your computer or mobile device. Then, connect to a server in the city where the game is being broadcast.
Now, open your web browser and go to the NFL Game Pass website. You should now be able to watch the game as if you were in the city where it’s being broadcast.
Use a streaming service
For those of you who are looking to watch an NFL game that is out of market, there are a few different options available to you. You can use a streaming service such as NFL Game Pass or Sunday Ticket, or you can find a bar or restaurant that is showing the game you want to watch.
If you decide to use a streaming service, NFL Game Pass is a good option as it provides access to all out-of-market games, live and on-demand. Sunday Ticket is another option, but it is only available to DirecTV subscribers.
If you would prefer to watch the game at a bar or restaurant, your best bet is to call ahead and make sure that they will be showing the game you are interested in. Some establishments will only show games that are popular in their particular area.
Conclusion
Out-of-market NFL games are easy to watch if you know where to look. With a little bit of research, you can find the right package for you. Whether you want to watch on your computer, phone, or television, there are plenty of options available. The NFL Sunday Ticket is the most comprehensive package, but it comes at a price. Other packages, like NFL Game Pass and fuboTV, are more affordable and offer a variety of features. You can also find individual game tickets on sites like StubHub. Whichever route you choose, make sure you do your research so you can catch all the action this season.
