I had YouTube TV from the beginning. $14/mo. Great deal. It had everything we needed, mainly local broadcast stations plus the major basic cable channels, to supplement our streaming services. Then they kept adding and adding, raising the price each time. I finally looked at what I was paying last month, $80. My son had one show he watched on ABC and I would record football in the NFL season. Not worth $80/mo. Too bad. I would really like that $14/mo service again. It was all I needed.

I have moved to a partial subscription. I have it for football season then it gets paused until the next football season. I like that YouTube lets you have unlimited recordings so i can watch as much or as little football as i like.

I do the same, haven't found a better service for just watching football, but I'm all ears.

Depending on whether it's college or NFL, and how local your team is, you could try an over the air television antenna.

I get every NFL game I need with mine.

NFL, but I want more than just local games.

Roku TV + a good antenna and DVR fills those needs pretty well for me. I get NFL network on it and all the big cable channels that NFL game are on. It's not quiet as seamless and easy, but it's free.
