    And there’s no better example of that than this one right here. The Seahawks game was ONLY available on ESPN+, which is a separate subscription from all the other ESPN networks. It’s even excluded from the (hella expensive) Sunday Ticket package, as the game was a Monday night event.

    In order to steam all NFL games this season, you have to subscribe to all of these:

    1. Sunday Ticket
    2. ESPN+
    3. Amazon Prime
    4. Peacock
    5. Netflix

      It’s crazy because the NFL used to be one of the better sports for friendly streaming, but Sunday ticket is getting less valuable and more expensive.
