As an NFL fan, you do not want to miss any of the games of your favorite team. For every NFL game on air for the season, Dish Network offers you several ways to watch without subscribing to cable at a huge cost. Below are the best ways of getting all NFL games with Dish Network.
NFL Network
The first way is to contact Dish Network and request them to include the NFL Network in your package. Although there are many ways available to watch the NFL games NFL Network will not give you all the games but it will give you over 140+ NFL games every season including Thursday Night Football along with Sunday out-of-market afternoon games.
To get the NFL Network, you will need to have a package that is similar to the Dish Network’s Flex Pack, Dish Network America’s Top 120+, Dish Network America’s Top 200, Dish Network America’s Top 250, or Dish Network Latino Max. Fortunately, excluding Flex Pack, all these Dish packages come with NFL Network and other sports channels that include ESPN, FS1, and MLB Network, among others. With one of these packages plus NFL Network, you will get over 15 NFL games through the season to watch live out-of-market games.
NFL RedZone
In addition to the NFL Network, NFL fans should also consider tuning into NFL RedZone on Dish. RedZone offers snapshots and replays during the NFL Sunday afternoon games at the moments when the teams are in the 20-yard line, ready to score. Well, that is a good idea since you can follow all the action live from the games.
Dish’s Multi-Sport Pack can be used to add NFL RedZone for $13 per month. Syndicated with the NFL Network, RedZone provides football fans with the best reason to tune in to NFL Sunday for hard-hitting plays, last-minute drives, and all the touchdowns from around the league.
Streaming Services
In addition to Dish programming, streaming services help access local CBS, FOX, NBC, and ESPN games each week, plus primetime and playoff games. Platforms like Paramount+, Peacock Premium, FuboTV, Sling, YouTube TV, and Hulu Live can air local primetime games during the season. Almost all also offer NFL Network and RedZone in some packages.
That way, you can effectively bundle Dish with a streaming plan that will give you the best experience while watching NFL games. Watch local games on NBC, CBS, FOX, and other local channels via Sling TV, YouTube TV, FuboTV, or Hulu + Live TV. For out-of-market broadcasts, national primetime games, RedZone, and much more, turn to Dish subscription.
NFL Sunday Ticket
This is the most expensive means of watching every out-of-market NFL game through the NFL Sunday Ticket. Sunday Ticket provides every Sunday afternoon game except for the ones that are locally televised and can be accessed on all your TV and streaming platforms. It is available only to those who subscribe to DirecTV satellite service and is considered the best way to watch NFL games across the country.
Sadly, Dish Network TV offers no NFL Sunday Ticket package. But if you wish to have Sunday Ticket work with Dish, you can get it as a streaming service. Select the Sunday Ticket student, single-team, or maxiFootball streaming plan to watch out-of-market games throughout the season on your mobile, tablets, streaming players, gaming consoles, and much more, with no satellite needed.
This combo allows for all the live local broadcasts with Dish in addition to all other out-of-market Sunday afternoon games on Sunday Ticket. Simply connect your Dish receiver and any other streaming device to watch all the football without blackouts or limitations.
Regional Sports Networks
To watch live regular season games, it is necessary to include regional sports networks (RSNs) that also broadcast local team games. Other regional networks that broadcast local pre-season, regular season, as well as early playoffs, include NBC Sports Regional Networks, Bally Sports, YES Network, Spectrum SportsNet, and MASN among others.
Dish includes major RSNs in packages such as America’s Top 120+ and above. You get NBC Sports RSNs, AT&T SportsNet & some Bally Sports Networks that were FOX Sports Regionals based on where you live. Before joining an RSN, find out which local RSN broadcasts your home team.
It’s also important to note that Dish Network has NFL Network and RedZone as part of its lineup, which in conjunction with local RSNs, will allow subscribers to watch all in-market and out-of-market live games without having to stream a single game.
Bottom Line
To get max NFL football through Dish Network, one has to plan to depend on what he or she wants. Choose a Dish package with NFL Network and your local regional CBS SPORTS networks. Supplement with RedZone and streaming additions such as FuboTV for national primetime and local market games. Last but not least, incorporate NFL Sunday Ticket where you can get all out-of-market games.
