OT: NFL Sunday Ticket Question


Recommended Posts

Next year I'm getting a ticket so I can watch the Panthers in my home and avoid internet feeds and sports bars for all 16 games (with my luck we'll get like 6 primetime games and it won't be worth buying).

My question is--what is the total cost on getting Sunday ticket for those of you who ended up getting Direct TV? I mean after installation, etc. what am I looking at in terms of total cost?

I would be starting from scratch, have just basic cable now. It always says like $99 per month or some deal amount for NFL Sunday Ticket..... but I've heard is astronomically expensive. Just trying to get an idea so I can price it out.

I don't know if the deal is still going on, but probably not. A few months ago DirecTV had a deal going on that if you signed up for service with them NFL Sunday Ticket was free. My neighbor got it free when he signed up. Doubt it's still going on for the 2012 season but maybe worth asking.

You can also haggle with them after their promotion is over. We've had directtv for 3 years now with the sunday ticket each of those years. We are getting choice extra package with sunday ticket for the price of choice package with sunday ticket.

i got directtv new this year (switched from time-warner cable) and it came with NFL sunday ticket and 2-room HD DVR for around 60 bucks a month, installation and equipment were free :) overall experience has been a small headache tho, each monthly statement has had some higher bill/random fee then you get rebate later kinda crap... the wife deals with them tho so im happy

I've had DTV for about 4 years now, and every year I call to cancel my Sunday Ticket and they reduce it to six payments of $33. Comes out to a little over $12/game. I can live with that, considering I used to go get tanked at the bar at 10am and it'd cost me easy $50 per Sunday. I'm pretty sure if you wait until football season is close next year they will give you the first year of ST for free too. My DTV bill is usually around $100 a month with all the regular and sports stuff plus HBO.

    • Oh it was bad and we had no depth so the injuries just crushed us. Eh we split with the other two bad teams in our division. Still beat the Cards, Raiders (who might have the worst roster), and NYG (who had a pretty bad roster). Our OL and RB were solid. Honestly our defense had no depth and a ton of injuries. Hopefully just being healthy can give them a nice boost. It can’t get much worse lol.
    • Agreed. Our coaches were better than some of the other dumpster fire teams and we played in the NFC South. That helped. Outside that, a simple look at the roster will very quickly reveal it to be the worst in Panthers franchise history. That was obvious before we had even played a game. It was funny that people were surprised we had a historically bad defense. It was so insanely obvious. 
    • I take the T Mac, Horn Jr,  and Renfrow additions as a direct shot over the bow when discussing XL. 1 year of dropsies and he finds himself automatically downgraded to WR2, at best, with the t Mac selection. I really hope he understands the gravity of this.  Barring unforeseen circumstances, T Mac will play all but a handful of snaps at WR1. Thielen will be on the field on all third downs, at least. guarantee. Coker will get a ton of snaps. He is just too good to be parked on the bench. JHJ will make the final 53. They will like him returning punts and kicks. He’s has good hands and elite game speed.  Dan still can’t bring himself to watch the SB from 22 years ago. How well do y’all think XL’s 3 drops on the final drive of the Eagles game went over? Dan is as serious as a heart attack when it comes to winning and losing. I don’t see him waiting patiently with developing XL if he is killing drives and/or costing the team games. Look no further than Ginn’s career to see what happens to first rounders with suspect hands.  I’m crazy, yes, but I do think that if Coker comes on, T Mac is who we hope he is and XL has another year of dropsies, he may end up as trade bait. Coker is going to continue to up his already impressive game. I don’t think anyone will argue that. He has a chip. JHJ has a chip. Thielen is Mr first down. XL better show growth.  I just don’t see Dan as the type who is patient with projects.
