The home of the Buffalo Bills on reddit. Circling the wagons since 2009.
What’s up guys! I’m wondering if any of you can help me out. Im looking for a streaming service to watch the Bills this season since I don’t have cable. I live in Western New York near Buffalo. I tried Sling for Friday’s game and local sports are blacked out on that service. Is there any streaming service that doesn’t do that? Thanks in advance! Let’s go Buffalo!
p.s. Also tried looking on the NFL Streaming sub and didn’t find an answer. Also, google didn’t help

I dunno. r/nflstreams works great for me. I watched the last two preseason games through links I found there and it worked just fine.

Have you considered upgrading your bandwidth? For a couple extra bucks a month, it’s totally worth it to watch out of market games. I’m at 50Mbps and there’s zero lag.

FWIW If you can get an HDMI hooked to your TV, the games will be much better. Chrome cast is a bit janky at times and the definition of compromised. Good luck
I stream to my iPhone and use a HDMI to display on my 65” TV.
Me too! High five!
For sure, it's how I've watched for the past three years. Make sure you have an adblocker and you'll be golden

Use a antenna if you are in the area. The only game you won't be able to see is the Monday night game because it's on ESPN
Tried an antenna. Didn’t work too great
Digital Antenna?
Antenna and over the air will actually give you the best picture quality. Give it another shot with a stronger antenna. Google "what antenna to buy for my area" and there's sites that give you great expectations of what you should be able to pick up and their distance. Good luck man.
All the preseason games are streamed on the bills app and website.
I live in NYC where my only option is to watch 14 games at a local bar. Beer + Bills = Sunday Funday
Not a bad time. I went to McFaddens when my wife and I were visiting NYC during a Bills game. Awesome experience
I have no idea if it’s a Canada-Only thing but I watch all my games on DAZN. Stream online or to a chromecast. It’s about 150$ a year (that’s cdn dollars so maybe it’s a few bucks for you guys)
From what I’ve read it’s Canada only :(
Ahhh sorry bud
Classic Canadian response.
Canadian here. Can confirm.
DAZN killed NFL Sunday ticket ? I remember Rogers telling me they no longer offered the package
I know Shaw started carrying Sunday Ticket part way though the season after all the outrage. They're not available everywhere though.
There is an app for channel 4 you can watch the games on. It’s like 4 bucks a Month
I watch the preseason games on Gamepass and the regular season games on the Sunday Ticket. I live in an apartment complex that doesn't allow dish, so I was able to order the standalone streaming package without having to buy a DirecTV subscription. Checkout nflsundayticket.tv to see if it will work for you. If you are blocked out, but think you should be eligible (as was the case for me) just bug them on Twitter and they can send you a one-time use code to get it. It's like $300 for the season or something like that.
I’m in an apartment complex too. So do I have to bug them to allow me to see in market games? Haha
Oh I didn't see the "in-market" part. I don't know if that changes your situation.
r/nflstreams links are posted like 30min before kickoff
r/lazyman or r/nflstreams
Lazyman is for NHL
Ah word, you're right
I live in Southeastern North Carolina and have been a Bills fan since birth. I hook my laptop up to my TV with an HDMI cord and google search whatever Buffalo game is playing. I find any result with Reddit being the website the best to use. You might have to refresh the page one or two time during the game, but hey it free 😊. I hope you find this helpful. GO BILLS!!!
You could save yourself the trouble this year and just subscribe to r/nflstreams

You're fine with any of the streaming services that have the local CBS and Fox affiliates. Sling will work for you. The rights for streaming the preseason games are wonky but that issue will not exist during the regular season. You'll be fine and get all the regular season games as they air.
Are you positive? I cancelled my sub to Sling already haha I could try it again
I am positive.
In addition, the NFL app offers streaming of any games that air in-market during the regular season.
These preseason streaming issues are just a result of each team negotiating the rights for their broadcasts with their local carriers...
Awesome! That’s great news!
I usually go for the hands over face, peeking between my fingers method.
Lmao
Iptv plenty of providers out there
I've been using r/nflstreams as well. That being said allegedly the bills are live streaming from this url: http://www.nfl.com/labs/clubs/stream/dev?club=buf . I watched the first quarter from it and it went well but suddenly cut out. This is live for the rest of the preseason I believe.
With beer
Get a jailbroken firestick and your good bro, one of the buffalo instagrams advertises it all the time
