Very disappointing again this year. So far no more coaches’ film, just a condensed game with no replays. I’m guessing this is YouTube technology. I have their TV broadcast system. It’s often requires blind fast forwarding, with no video image. It also often darkens a paused image making it hard to view. When the story shows an image of a cellphone chat screen, pausing doesn’t help. in this case seeing contact on a play is impeded. Can’t recommend its purchase.

On the dark pausing, if you're using a standard streaming remote, just hit the top left button that normally exits you out of the platform. Except if you're paused, it just undarkens the screen. It works in every platform I can think of. Well not sure about NFL+.

Weird. I use YouTube TV and have no issues with fast forward or pausing. I'm using an Apple TV 4K box to stream so maybe that has something to do with it??? I also have a super fast internet connection.

In fact I paused it this morning to take a photo of a Typical Eagles fan and made sure to send it to all of my friends who are Eagles fans.

It used to be free for season ticket holders. Now they want you to buy it at 50% off.

I’ll try this and let you know. I’m using a fairly new generation Fire Cube from Amazon.

To resurrect this thread, I would recommend anyone considering NFL Plus to reconsider, and to unsubscribe if you are a user. This has turned into utter garbage. I usually miss 5 or so minutes of game time because the same day replays just aren't fully put together and sometimes skip ahead. That's a new negative this year. The kicker? They effectively have no support for NFL Plus. It is impossible to get to a live person, and creating tickets does nothing. If they weren't such a mammoth organization I swear I'd sue the pants off them for shoddy product and no support or recourse.

Had it for one year and cancelled it. I got it for preseason games which I could never watch for some reason. I just wait for NFL channel to show them late at night

This will be my last year of subscribing. The whole NFL tv lineup has jumped the shark. From NFL Network and its shows to NFL+ the quality has been pretty poor.

I pretty much just use it for Red Zone Channel now. For $100/year, that's pretty good for that I think. There's probably a million other ways to get Red Zone Channel though.

I'm out of market and I use NFL+ to watch the games right after they conclude. Been doing it for a couple of years now.

It's frustrating as heck to go to commercial and come back to the game for a punt. That's poor editing. Since it's a new problem, I presume they are trying to use AI to avoid paying people to edit the broadcasts.

I guess since this is the cheapest option to watch the cards for me, I get what I pay for. Still, do better NFL.

I agree with you 100%. I cannot watch ANY games LIVE on my phone
But, I can watch on my iPad, so far, knock on wood.

Since I don't have Fox, this helps me to watch some of the Cards games.

But, you're right, utter garbage.

I didn’t notice any skipping ahead prior to this season but seeing it now. Advertised as full game replay. Well, when they come back from commercial and I have missed an entire Cardinal offensive series that is not full game replay. Really pissing me off.

Problem is NFL Network doesn’t always show the Cardinal game replay.

I canceled it a couple of weeks ago. Nothing but bugs and a hassle to use.

They show all preseason game. Only certain ones are live, but they show them all. It's just usually the cards are in between midnight and 3 am. But I'm retired so I can watch them
I don’t recall seeing the Lions or Rams game replay.
