Why NFL is Sunday Ticket so expensive now? If you want flexibility, it’ll cost you an extra $100. Bundling NFL Sunday Ticket with YouTube TV makes sense for those who are committed to the latter for at least the next nine months. Hence the need for foresight when choosing one of these plans. YouTube TV is a cable replacement service with features like a grid guide and DVR. YouTube TV’s $11-per-month Sports Plus add-on also offers NFL RedZone without the need for Sunday Ticket, but no standalone RedZone option exists for YouTube Primetime Channels subscribers. Meanwhile, the NFL RedZone add-on will provide whiparound coverage of early and late afternoon games. The difference with YouTube TV is that you’ll also get a full pay TV package to go with it. In both cases, the core NFL Sunday Ticket offering is the same: You’ll get live access to out-of-market games, along with a “multiview” feature for watching up to four games at a time.

(The best time to do so is right after signing up.) If you go with YouTube Primetime Channels, Sunday Ticket will auto-renew at the regular price unless you cancel beforehand.
