$200....I think its a great deal.
Think of it this way...there are 17 weeks and an average of 15 games a week. 3 of those games are not on Sunday ticket each week. So that leaves you with 184 games for 200 bucks, or $1.09 a game. All in HD and it assures you see whatever team you prefer every week....and no annoying Canadian ads, though never pay attention to them anyhow cause im always switching around.

$200... January is playoffs and we get all the games.
Otherwise if you don't mind Seattle, NFC East or Green bay you could get by with basic tv packages. I think those are the games I remember getting often.
I got it this year and my cousin got it last year, and when you break it down to basically 12 bucks per week to watch more then 4 Bears/Saints games per year I'm quite content with it

Sad seeing my Bills lose earlier, but I do like the Giants, too, so I am glad they have woken up and will now proceed to run over Dallas.

Great gif from the NO vs. ATL game. The difference between victory and defeat truly is a matter of inches. Rookie Kenny Vaccaro saves the game for the Saints:

Or a matter of a stupid penalty, just ask Tampa Bay.
Saints win, Panthers, Falcons and Bucs lose, you must be having victory sex Moe.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A football fan fell from an elevated pedestrian walkway and died at San Francisco's Candlestick Park during the 49ers-Green Bay Packers game.
San Francisco police spokesman Gordon Shyy says multiple people witnessed the man's fall onto a sidewalk from the Jamestown walkway, which goes around Candlestick.
According to police, witnesses say the man appeared intoxicated when he fell just after kickoff at about 1:30 p.m. Sunday in the 49ers' 34-28 win over the Packers. Off-duty medics and police officers gave him first aid until an ambulance arrived, but the man was declared dead from his injuries.

Or have a set of officials that don't know how to apply offsetting penalty rules.

not to mention you now get NFL red zone included in the package with shaw which is pretty much the greatest invention ever (direct TV doesn't have redzone)
also, you get an app for your ipad (so you can stream) and iphone (still not released but supposed to be coming).

Actually, DirecTV has the original redzone channel. It was a huge success, so the NFL bit on it and created their own.
