Thanks jaguarmanftype and captaind for answering my question. YouTube TV seems like a real alternative to cable, which has gotten so expensive. We have cut back our package to try to keep the cost down. I am definitely going to look into it.

I have had a very good experience with it as far as reliability and streaming quality. The one thing I really do not like is that they are slowly adding a bunch of channels I will never watch and raising the rates to cover their costs. $65 is still less than I paid years ago for cable but I hate paying for stuff I'll never watch. I had hoped that someone would come out with a true a la cart option for cord cutters but it really never happened.

I don’t think the industry structure will ever allow for it. The only way to save $ is to cancel it when you’re not using it.
I am concerned we’ll lose that with the NFL Sunday Ticket, though.

IPTV is the way to go. You get everything and its way cheaper than YT TV and obviously cable. I use an antenna for local channels and i can watch any Citys channels if i want to and i do sometimes. I watch the Padres on Bally's SD, watched the Chargers on LA's CBS last week, and watch SNL on NY NBC channel at 8:30 for examples.
My internet is the costly thing (everybody needs internet to run these things)and i have Cox Panarama which is like $106 a month and the IPTV streaming service is only $15. I pay for 6 months at a time to bring it down to 15. Its actually $14.83 ($89 for 6 months)
Need the Panarama internet as we have like 12 things connected at a time usually including phones, tablets, PC , TVs and Fireboxes and can be more at times if the game console is being used and all the TVs are connected at once. We have 4 TVs.....3 used regularly that are smart TVs.

My brother set me up to watch Ravens games in Baltimore. I use a VPN to log into his router, then Ihave full access to his cable subscription.
I need to figure this out for my house so I can watch the Bolts when I’m traveling.
I love my TIVO so I’m not getting rid of cable until it’s dead. I have my own slo mo replays every game. And I love to go back and see who missed the block or how the blitz worked or how the receiver got open. Football is so much more interesting when you look at the details.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
The Wasted Decade is done.
Build Back Better.

It's a matter of convenience for me. I live in inland-coastal SD, so to capture any local channels would require an amplified rooftop antenna and that still doesn't guarantee signal. I used to use Sling TV as the cheaper alternative with Locast as my locals provider several years ago for a time, but that option is long gone now. Funny thing with Sling TV that added value for me with that Locast option was I could use a VPN and get locals in any market even if Sling TV didn't carry the rights to air them.

But I do like the "Key Plays" feature that allows me to catch up on the game or just view a condensed version of it with the most impactful plays.
That's a question I had. Does YouTube TV have DVR-like options like pause, reverse, and forward, so you can pause the game and go back and re-watch a play? Or is it like streaming a game on your computer from one of the "free" streaming sites, where all you can do is sit there and watch the game play through?
