Spoke to WCG this morning about ordering the package for the season. For all you NFL fans you will not get it anywhere but DAZN. It is basically Netflix for sports. It is available on most smart tvs, Apple TV 4th generation and some gaming consoles. It's $20/month so cheaper for sure. Just not too sure about streaming reliability. Time will tell.

They offer a free 1 month trial if anyone is interested. https://www.dazn.com/en-CA

NFL Game Pass directly from NFL for last 2 years and had good success in streaming without hiccups. But now that DAZN has bought the exclusive rights to broadcast in Canada they are the only place to purchase. It is cheaper, but I have watched preseason games the last couple weeks and the streaming is horrible. I did voice my displeasure but it is not going to get you anywhere. Don't plan on casting from a tablet or computer to a tv because it lags badly. You can ask WCG if improving network speeds may help? I am too cheap to do that, so I grin and bear it!

We have Bell/MTS internet and I'm not sure if it matters (I'm not very savvy when it comes to internet speeds and lingo and stuff) but we tried streaming a pre season game the other night and it came in crystal clear.  
 
The only big difference we found is that you can't picture in picture. Used to have 3 games and redzone up (excessive, I know) but looks like now we'll be down to Redzone or toggling through games. Apparently it's something they have had a lot of feedback on and may look into adding the feature in the future.

Looks like if you have MTS TV you can get all the Sunday games if you order the East and West time shift channels. $3 a month per time shift. They are promoting this on their website. Cheaper than DAZN.
