is NFL Rewind worth a subscription?

I have some experience with it. Game Rewind is actually gone. Starting this year, it's GamePass, and there's only one price: $100. So if you are really only interested in watching Panthers games, it may not be worth it. To justify the price increase, they added radio feeds to the package, which had been a separate thing in the past, and also put a bunch of episodes of Hard Knocks, A Football Life, Sound FX, America's Game, and lots of Super Bowls - even older ones. They have Super Bowls III, VII, and XIII for example. 

 

The morning after games, there are condensed games available, so if you don't want to spend 2 hours watching the full broadcast tape, that's really nice. FYI, the full broadcasts do have commercials, but it's limited to just the first 10 seconds or so of the first one from each commercial break, and there's a button that lets you skip 10 seconds ahead, so you can effectively skip commercials). One of my favorite features are the condensed games. They let you relive moments of Panthers glory as they happened, and it only takes about 30 minutes to watch them all the way through.

I also like the All-22 coaches film option (this feature is not available for preseason games). If you know something about football, it's a good way to make your own judgments about certain players, or what happened on a given play. I don't know when coaches film becomes available after games, but it's probably around the same time as the condensed games. 

Another cool thing is that you can jump around between specific plays when you're watching the full broadcast or the all-22 film. You can watch a play from the middle of the first quarter, and then 2 seconds later be watching a play from the beginning of the 4th. Etc. 

As for your other questions, only the all-22 coaches film and public broadcast camera angles are available. 

 

The main drawback is that it's mainly an on-demand service, and it's not available at all while there are any sort of regular season games on TV. So you can't watch a 1 PM Panthers game while the 4 PM games are on, or during SNF or MNF. I think that covers everything important. Hope that helps.

Is there a way to download the play clips so you can make highlight videos?

I had it for two year and didn't really think it was worth the price. If they would release the all 22 before Weds it would be cool but it seemed like I would wait 2 days for all the games to show up then another day for the all 22. Unless you just have the extra cash to piss away I really see no value in it.

yeah as others have mentioned it's been rebranded as gamepass and the price has been jacked up.  that's also not to be confused with the insanely good international version of gamepass where you can stream any game live and watch replays on demand.  i'm going to wait until the season gets underway to put down the money most likely.

that said i've subscribed off and on since 2008 and i think it's awesome.  if you're a die hard NFL fan and interested in such things it'll really boost your knowledge of the game.

The best thing to do is get a VPN so it looks like you're in a different country. You can get gamepass for a decent price depending on what country you're looking at and you get every game live to your computer. You also get every archived game going back to 2009 with broadcast, condensed, All-22, and endzone views. I highly recommend it if you don't have a way to watch panthers games.

This is what I do and I love it.

    • yeah, now it's going to get awkward.  The team circles pay attention to all this stuff.  All the wives and girlfriends see the posts.  They all talk like everyone.  Football is just a normal world outside of the fact they play a game for lots of money.  Gossip travels. They know the Theilen's want out at this point.  Carolina is now the disappointed failed trade location.    So now AT takes sort of an inhouse hit in Carolina IMO  
    • Ummm... The dude looked like he was about 180 pounds soaking wet with us (I don't care what his listed weight was/is) - he would have been destroyed in the run game even more than our current and past crappy ILBs. The problem is we primarily play 3-4 or nickel/dime - there is little room on the field for him because he isnt an edge LB blitzer and he can't cover for crap. The only thing he can do kind of well is be an in-the-box safety that can try and beat blockers to the spot because of his athleticism. Washington was able to make him work last year because they used him solely as an in-the-box safety and almost exclusively ran a single high FS. The funny thing is they had good yards/game stats against the pass despite most of their secondary having embarrassingly low PFF grades. Washington was also terrible against the run, which might explain why they gave up so few yards passing.
    • Just get the deal done. We've teased it so much that the Thielen's expect it. Now we run the risk of our veteran WR locker room presence becoming disgruntled. Just take what we can get, make him happy, and get future assets while freeing up snaps for guys who will be here beyond this season.
