49. I know what you mean. Its disappointing when I set up my calendar

Each year only to find match-up games between teams that I really want to see are off limits because ....greed. I'd know why they think that it's a good idea to shut out their fans. Except... you know greed. Bastards.

Here's how much it will (roughly) cost to watch every NFL game in the 2025 season
...
The All-Encompassing NFL 2025 Viewing Plan
(For CBS/Fox/NBC/ABC games that aren't blacked out locally) One average over-the-air antenna: $40
(For CBS/Fox/NBC/ABC games that are blacked out locally) A standard Sunday Ticket annual subscription ($379) AND a monthly base subscription (4X) to YouTube TV ($73): $671 total (Psst, remember when I said watching every single game is optional?)
(For Netflix Christmas games) A standard with ads subscription (one-time): $8
(For Amazon Prime Video Thursday Night Football games) A standard monthly (4X) subscription: $36
(For Peacock-exclusive games) A premium monthly subscription: $8
(For ESPN Monday Night Football games) A monthly subscription (4X) to ESPN+ ($12), a monthly (4X) subscription to ESPN's direct streaming service ($30), OR a monthly subscription (4X) to a Disney+/Hulu/ESPN bundle ($30): $48 or $120

Rough total: $811 or $883

If you want to spend that much money accounting for every NFL game this coming regular season, more power to you. At least you know where you'll stand and that your wallet will definitely hate you after the fact. And know that Roger Goodell and all 32 owners will be laughing all the way to the bank. Well, more than they already do.
