    Yes, it will be more difficult due to exclusive streams: https://apnews.com/article/how-to-watch-nfl-streaming-1784047265cfe5c32adfb054d5ad970e

    TBH, I’m not sure what Hulu with Live TV gets you beyond what’s already available on YouTube Sunday Ticket. Sadly, YT ST is the best way to legally watch the most games. I split that with some friends and then pirate the Peacock-only, etc. games if I really care about them.

    If YT TV ever kills family accounts, I’ll just go antenna/OTA+🏴‍☠️ for everything, because I’m not fucking rich.

      It sounds like YT ST is for games that are not in your local area?

      Local channels like your local FOX, CBS, and NBC affiliates are not included in NFL Sunday Ticket, nor are national channels like ESPN. However, these are available with the YouTube TV Base Plan.

      So for SNF, MNF i’d still need tv access and well I’m so rural that I can’t pick up OTA reliably. This is where I would need TV services and Hulu makes the most sense for my home.

      others in my house aren’t the type to figure out how to check the high seas for streams.

        Ah, that’s right. I didn’t know that getting YT ST without the YTtv base plan. For sure plenty of games are always on the base plan (or ORS, or Hulu Live TV, etc.).

        It’s a racket, man.
