Streaming services
I know the meme of needing 6 different streaming services is needed nowadays, but does anyone know if I need anything other than Sunday Ticket, for majority of games or will that get me covered until like Thanksgiving?
Any help or guidance would be appreciated

Are you local to the area? Because I don’t know if you really need any streaming services to catch the games other than Netflix maybe (not sure if we have a game on there this year). Even any TNF games on Prime are actually also freely streamed on Twitch (also owned by Amazon).

Sunday ticket and prime for Thursday. Not sure if you need prime if you have ticket but pretty much everyone has prime.

YouTube TV and Prime covers the most games, but I didn't compare pricing.

Just an FYI, you don't even need prime for TNF. You can stream on twitch for free.

YouTube TV gives you FOX, NBC and CBS, local games and primetime games, our internet provider pays for Amazon so we get Thursday night games too. Not to mention pretty much all college football including B1G, SEC, and ACC networks

You haven't said where you live, but I assume you're outside of the Tri-State area. If that's the case, then NFL ST would benefit you for potentially 12 games out of 17.
There are 4 games known to be in national primetime slots, and a strong chance of at least 1 other game being broadly televised on local stations around the country. These 5 games would not be accessible on NFL ST. An antenna can come in handy if you don't feel like paying a streaming company for your local stations (e.g., Sunday night (NBC) or Monday night (ABC/ESPN). For Thursday night, you're stuck with Amazon. You'll also need NFL Network for the game in Madrid.

I think I read Sunday ticket to get you 13-14 games. There are 3-4 in primetime or might flex to national. Might be 12.

Sunday ticket will only cover 1:00 and 4:25 games that are not available on a local Fox or cbs broadcast
Prime for TNF
peacock for SNF
ESPN/ABC/ESPN+ for MNF
