Sunday Ticket has been awful. We cancelled ours from renewing within 3 weeks. We like NFL+ better. My wife and I are OK watching games after they’ve aired.

NFL+ has spoiled me, I literally cannot watch live games anymore. Being able to skip through the absurd amount of commercial breaks, in-game ads, useless sideline reporters, etc. is fantastic. The condensed games are also great when I don’t have 2.5 hours to watch a game but I also don’t want to be a fake fan and just watch highlights

Tygr ,

Yeah we watch one 2.5 hour game and several highlight games of teams we like (or to monitor our division).

Glad I didn’t pay for it, the price is just ridiculous anyway. I use the, ahem, free sites that exist all over.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

When YouTube TV took over NFL Sunday Ticket, the key was ensuring that the experience was as good as it had been on DirecTV for the previous 29 years.

Users across social media reported suffering lag and long, repetitive buffering sessions with the streams throughout the day.

As per The Athletic, YouTube TV even added “better video quality” and a multiview feature with “minimal streaming delays.”

In May, the conclusion of an NBA playoff game was replaced with a repeating ad for the live-action The Little Mermaid movie due to a glitch.

Despite frustrating hiccups and demands for refunds, it’s inevitable that sports, like every other sort of media that used to be constrained to linear TV, find their way to streaming services.

And other streaming services, like Amazon Prime Video with Thursday Night Football, have implemented live sports without major glitches.
