Right now....I wish there was a NFL version of MLB at Bat '09. Great little app it is. For $10 you can choose to listen to either the home or away radio feed of every game and if you have the latest fw, you can watch select games.

There's also a free version which only gives you live scoring but there are plenty of NFL apps that do that now.

But NFL audio is what I'd like, because pre-season games generally aren't on TV outside the local area. Once the season starts, you can keep up with things via DirecTV's new mobile app (assuming you have DirecTV, Sunday Ticket and Superfan).

If you have sirius, you can pay the extra couple dollars for premium subscription and use the sirius app to listen to NFL games or any other sirius channels.

Recently switched over to XM but I think you can do the same as they use the same app....pisses me off that they charge for online listening now. Sirius never used to, was part of your sub. Guess once the merger happened and XM already was charging they figured hey, why not. I might have to look into what it costs...might not be worth it though because like I said, I can use DirecTV's new mobile app to watch the games since I sub to NFL ST/SF.

EDIT: Just looked into the SiriusXM online app and found this:

Some select programming, including MLB Play-by-Play, NFL Play-by-Play, SIRIUS NASCAR Radio, and Howard Stern, will not be available on the iPhone and iPod touch.

For the most part, I've been fairly unhappy with the switch to XM from Sirius. I did it to get the best of both worlds....that is to say, all the MLB, NHL & NFL games. If Sirius would have worked out a deal with MLB before this season started (as they were supposed to be doing), I'd still be with them.

Anyway...I get TONS of dropouts with XM. Just around town next to buildings that are no more than 2 or 3 floors high. Never had a problem with Sirius. Never. I would lose Sirius coming out of the alley at the end of my street because it was almost like driving through a tunnel made of trees and I'd lose it under the overhang at the bank, but that's about it. With XM I lose the signal very often. Very disappointed in this as I had read loads and loads of people talking about how XM had such a superior signal distribution compared to Sirius.

If Sirius ever added all MLB and NHL games to the "Best of XM" service, I'd have no hesitation in moving back to Sirius' hardware.

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      Its really wild to watch this part of the community boil down the success of the 2025 Panthers to whether or not BY9 busts or breaks out. Ill take middle of the road mistake free game manager that distributes the ball and orchestrates the offense.  If we can get that with a D that doesnt put us in a 27 point+ hole every week the team can improve. Id love a deep post season run but honestly at this point Id be ecstatic about feeling like we could win every week.   Jake is never going to get a yellow jacket but damn if he didnt make watching the team fun.     eta: I think too many people are looking for an I told you so moment over their pre-draft "evaluation" of Bryce

      I consider last year Bryce's rookie year.....and I expect some regression/D adjustment in his second season in Canales' O.  Film is film.   So yeah, I agree....he won't be the dude that opened up the year week 1 or closed the door week 17.  We will get some dude in between it all most likely.  Which IMO puts us in a really awkward no man's land with Bryce.

      The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't.
