i switched to rewind after having sunday ticket online (without dtv) the first year it came out at $350 but there was no replay or record options so if i wasn't home to watch i missed it thus i bought rewind. this year though you can watch the games when the afternoon game is over in previous years you had to wait til after the sunday night game was over. i have already purchased gamepass for 2015

This is BS. The game rewind mobile app worked perfectly for me last year.

NFL Game Pass gives cord-cutters a new option

Julia Boorstin | @JBoorstin
CNBC.com

The NFL launched a subscription service Tuesday, part of a group of offerings designed to enhance the traditional television model.

Called the NFL Game Pass, the $99-a-year service will allow subscribers to watch regular season games on television as soon as they're over.

The pass app will also provide access to preseason games live, plus the ability to listen—with no accompanying video—to regular season games live. The app will include different camera angles and other exclusive content that's not available on traditional linear TV.

"This is a real game-changing year," NFL Chief Digital Officer Perkins Miller told CNBC. He did apologize for his pun.

"You've seen so much growth in these pure-play native digital apps like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime. ... As we looked at what we could do with our premium content, the preseason games, our games on demand, we said if we could unify that into one package and make it easy for our fans, I think we'd be aligning ourselves with the trajectory of online video consumption for premium content providers."

This is the latest in a string of announcements the NFL has made about new streaming options. Last week, the NFL announced in-season games will be available live at no cost to all Verizon customers. (In the past only Verizon customers with certain packages had access). Plus, this fall the NFL will for the first time offer a game exclusively on Yahoo, not TV. And it's streaming, again at no charge, two more CBS games than last year, in addition to streaming the Super Bowl and playoffs.

These streaming video options won't replace the experience of watching a game live on a giant TV in a living room, but for a cord cutter willing to make some compromises, they're pretty compelling options. And in a time where sports are considered one of the most valuable pieces of the traditional pay-TV bundle, it's worth watching this area.

The moves don't directly threaten cable and satellite TV providers, as this content is available on broadcast TV, which people could theoretically access via an antenna, but it's another example of the "chipping away" of the traditional TV model.

"The NFL is definitely trying to hedge against change the best we can," said Miller.
"I use the word carefully because I really think of it more as we're being responsive, because we're trying to come at it from a fan-first point of view.

"We know our fans are watching broadcast TV; we know they're touching their mobile phone and want and expect to get content there. We know there's an emergence of connected TV applications and that we need to be directly accountable to our fans to deliver content there."

I "heard" there's a way for people living in the U.S. To watch the games live using game pass ($129 for the season).

i believe you use a vpn so they don't know you're in the us. reddit has a thread on how to do it. i have us gamepass and only a few days left before the season and it's not up and running on my roku yet.

Yes, I bought NFL gamepass with a firefox add-on called anonymox.Use anonymox to change your IP to a country outside the US when you log onto NFL.com. You are then given a different menu for gamepass. For 100 british pounds you can buy a gamepass package that allows you to watch all the NFL games LIVE. You can use a US credit card to pay for it also. Just make sure when ou log onto gamepass you have anonymox enabled to a non-us ip. It's pretty easy. The trial version works but I recommend buying the premium version of anonymox. It's like $25. I used it all last year, and pre-season this year, and just ran an HDMI cable from my laptop to living room TV. So for around $175 you can watch all the NFL games live and in HD.

Thanks for the info. I already set it up and it works great on my laptop at home. I used Australia. That was the least expensive international plan that I found ($129). I used overplay to set up the VPN. I've been using game rewind for many years, but I just recently found out about this when I did a search. http://www.cuttingcords.com/home/2015/8 ... -to-get-it

I have one question. This weekend I'm going to and staying at a local casino early Sunday through Monday. Will there be any issue watching the game live using their secure network or any other secure network in the future?
