talbert240 Posted October 9 Posted October 9 I am trying to sort out how to watch Monday night's game only on ESPN. I don't have a cable package, on NFL ticket and streaming services. None of them carry ESPN, only the useless ESPN+, that I now refer to as ESPN-, (ESPN minus). Sling Orange day pass, at $4.99 per day, seems like a perfect solution to get ESPN for the day and watch the game with the family. Anyone try this before? Quote

Talley56 Posted October 9 Posted October 9 If you are asking specifically about the day pass, I have never used that (I didn't even know that was an option through Sling). But if you are asking about Sling in general, that has worked well for me. Just make sure you don't go to the gamecast on espn.com if you don't want to know what's going to happen on the next play before you see it, since streaming is usually delayed by a few minutes. 1 Quote
chris heff Posted October 9 Posted October 9 Do you have NFL Ticket through YouTube TV? Because if you have YouTube TV you have ESPN. 1 Quote

I only pay for NFL Ticket not the full YouTubeTV package, with other programming. The sling site says the day pass is "new". I'll probably give it a try. 1 Quote
NC-billsfan! Posted October 10 Posted October 10 I looked it up. Looks very interesting, I to need to find a way to watch the game Monday night. Looks like a possible option. Quote
RiotAct Posted October 10 Posted October 10 is it still going to be on ABC locally in the Buffalo area? Quote
Just Jack Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Something else to consider is Fubo Fubo - Watch Live Sports & TV Without Cable TV | Try Free They have a free trial, sign up on Sunday, watch the game on Monday, close your account on Tuesday. 1 Quote
BlueRed Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Just tossing this out there, I know it wont work for all but the sports betting apps (DraftKings, FanDuel, etc) have been live streaming select NFL games inside their app for games that you’ve placed a bet on. It’s gotten me through so far for the games I’d like to watch this year - and all I have to do is place a small bet on the game. 1 Quote
Gigs Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Dude just get a firestick, jailbreak it yourself because truthfully its easy, get a VPN and pay $10/month for an iptv service. You'd have at least a dozen channels with the Bills game on. Thats what everybody but myself are doing 1 Quote
buffalostu2 Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Can't you just get a DirectTV or cable provider login from someone you know hasn't cut the cord and log in on TV app? Quote

I don't have trouble with Bills Monday night games because I am local but there have been a few I wanted to watch. Haven't found the answer for it. I'll check out that day pass next time I want to watch one. Didn't know it existed. Thanks. Quote

We've had Sling for 10 years or so and it's great... blue for the most part. I used to turn on orange for a Bills game but now I just put the games on "elsewhere". Have seen the $4.99 thing and I'm not sure you can use it if you aren't a Sling customer, really never looked into it. If so... that's a pretty good deal. Quote

I have ST now that it's gone from DTV, but prior agree, waters were always smooth. I will add one time was watching a pirated feed of college game, then remembered I actually had that channel and switched to legal feed, the reception on pirate feed was much better picture. 1 1 Quote
