The coaches film is the best part. I'm betting you'll enjoy that during the regular season.MikethePurple wrote: Ah ok, sounds good. Sounds like I'll have a little playing around to do with it. So far it seems to be a nice option for watching games!
Cool, yes, I'm definitely looking forward to checking that feature out![/quote]MikethePurple wrote:The coaches film is the best part. I'm betting you'll enjoy that during the regular season.
Hmm. I may be doing something a bit more unorthodox. Using NFL mobile app on my phone, and I don't see that option.Mothman wrote: On the page where you select which game you want to watch or hear, you should see an option to select the home or away broadcast (see below).
Yea, 'Gamepass`, 'audiopass' and 'Game Rewind' were all seperate things prior to this year, where they were all combined.Mothman wrote: Yes, they did away with that option. They also used to offer a subscription to the radio broadcasts separately from the video repeats.
I've been a Game Pass subscriber since they created that package and I've found it worth the money. I listen to the games live when I can't watch them and then watch them the next day. It's also a great way to see some other games of interest.
One of the best aspects of Game Pass is access to the "coach's film", which is usually available by mid-week following the game.
If you can afford the $100 and you think you'll make regular use of the services, it's worth it.
Yea, Sunday ticket has these as well, but their's are called shortcuts.Mothman wrote: As you said, it's cheaper than going out to a bar to watch the games every week (at least if you buy food and drinks).
Trying to have a media blackout until you can watch is difficult. I can't do it. I just listen live (it's fun). If you have NFLRedZone, you can always go to that when you hear a team in the Vikes game get near scoring position. They will often (but unfortunately, not always) go to the game at that point. That's what I tend to do.
Another nice aspect of Game Pass is that you can watch the game in real time or watch an abbreviated version that shows all of the plays but cuts out the huddling and down time between them. That's not ideal but it's a way to take in the game if you don't have much free time.
I tend to re-watch the losses in "condensed" format. That minimizes the pain, but I still get to see all the plays. Some games just can't be re-watched at any speed. The first Seattle and GB games last year, for example.Mothman wrote:Another nice aspect of Game Pass is that you can watch the game in real time or watch an abbreviated version that shows all of the plays but cuts out the huddling and down time between them.

I was going to ask this. Because from what I can see online you can't watch regular season games live, but I was hoping the replay would be available shortly after. Doesn't sound like I could watch a noon game at 6pm...Mothman wrote: During the preseason, the video broadcast seems to be available (that's how I watched Friday's game). That might be new because i don't remember that option being available lat year. Maybe I just missed it.
During the regular season, only the "listen" option is available on game days. The video isn't made available until some time after the Sunday night game. Exactly when seems to vary but I've found it's always available by Monday morning.
Oh wow, this is sounding even better. Now, I can go out during the day while the weather is still nice and come home and watch the game in the evening. Having them available by 5pm Pacific will be great!GoldenBear91 wrote:I did some digging and according to this...

•Broadcast versions of Sunday morning and afternoon games (9:30am ET, 1pm ET & 4pm ET) are available by 8pm ET on Sunday.
I hope this is true! Then I could watch the Vikes before heading to work on Monday morning!
