Compare DirecTV NFL Sunday Ticket to NFL Network Red Zone

As A new subscriber of DirecTV I was very excited for the NFL Football Season to begin. I have the opportunity to watch every football game available and can track my Fantasy Football team Players live. My question now is with the emergence of the NFL Network's Red Zone Channel - Do I really have the need to watch every football game or just the highlights? Let's compare these options.

Let's take a look at fans of out of market teams. As I live in New England the local team here is the New England Patriots. I am aware I am in the minority. The Saints will be televised between 5 and 7 times nationally this year in addition to when they play New England, which will be broadcast locally. This leaves approximately 9 games. With the Sunday Ticket priced at $300 that would be approximately 35 dollars per game to see the remainder...almost the price of a ticket to see them live if I lived in New Orleans. So as a fan of a Team not designated in my area I would lean towards the NFL Network in this scenario.

Now let's take a look at tracking your Fantasy Football Team. Last year as Sundays Games developed I found myself online in front of the computer receiving updates through the NFL Red Zone tracker. I received up to the minute stats on all my players with the click of a mouse. With the red zone it became very exciting as I wondered if my player would earn me six points or my defense would hold up. I did spend endless minutes waiting for a screen to refresh as I looked at what would appear to be the visual affects of an Atari2600 video game. Red Zone offenses and defenses, with the exception of a game's last two minutes, are the most exciting of any given Sunday. Sure after the results you have the celebrations, but to see a team make it or break it inside the 20-yard line is the true definition of football. With those images now shown live every time a team approaches the goal line I feel I will achieve pure football ecstasy every Sunday.

This Time I will have a 42-inch TV, HD, and surround sound. I will have the ability to watch my player or my oppositions perform in the Red Zone. During Games televised (regardless of the channel) we have tickers at the bottom of every screen, we have game breaks, and we have highlight shows at halftime and for an hour following the game. ESPN constantly airs the NFL's highlights all day and all night. For me this is more than enough information to track my fantasy team and players. I see no advantage of the NFL Sunday Ticket.
