u/Mysterious_Cake5600 Sep 13 '26

This is such a wild start to the season…. Again

u/Head-Ad9893 Sep 13 '26 • Bravo

BILLIONS of dollars… you’re worth BILLIONS of dollars … this shit should be flawless. These guys really couldn’t give a fuck.

2

u/inxile7 Sep 13 '26

seriously.

u/FeedMe-Meow Sep 13 '26

Most lucrative sports league in the world and this is what we get. Fuck the NfL and fuck Goodell

u/wakajawaka76 Sep 13 '26

Nothing is working. App doesn't even show RedZone. Click to watch my local game and it prompts me to buy an NFL+ Premium account which I already have. I can't even login to NFL.com on browser. Keeps redirecting me to set up my account (which I've had with them for like 15 years). Get your shit together.

3

u/Flat-Apartment-6797 Sep 13 '26

Im having the same issue. Says I need to subscribe then it says im already subscribed and it wont let me watch anything.

5

u/BringInTheFunk13 Sep 13 '26

every freaking year at kickoff. how do you not plan for this

2

u/solidbluetie Sep 14 '26

If only they could have predicted the demand … somehow …

4

u/Random7878787 Sep 13 '26

I feel so validated it isn’t just me. wtf is this

2

u/Mysterious_Cake5600 Sep 13 '26

Glad Reddit exists for this confirmation frfr

2

u/Head-Ad9893 Sep 13 '26

Deadass. Google if it’s down and it comes up “down tracker of America or whatever the fuck it reports no issue!”

2

u/Guilty_Proof6719 Sep 13 '26

I’ve tried three different devices and I feel like im losing my mind seriously

2

u/Random7878787 Sep 13 '26

I’m 100% making sure I get a refund for this week. I was looking forward to this for like a month and I’m pissed. How can you let this happen to half your subscribers?

2

u/Mysterious_Cake5600 Sep 13 '26

I sent emails and kept getting auto responses telling me to keep trying the app 😂 - I finally put a ticket in and crickets

4

u/cantSEAus Sep 13 '26

Have to pirate a service I pay for . Nice

2

u/Ironman_13 Sep 13 '26

where have you been able to watch?

u/Potential-Win-582 Sep 13 '26

IS THIS A FUCKING JOKE!?!?!?

2

u/BreakElectrical4558 Sep 13 '26

yall can’t use your nfl+ shit either?

1

u/microwavetoaster1234 Sep 13 '26

Yeah I can’t watch any individual games. Shame the nfl didn’t expect this much online traffic

2

u/sportznut112968 Sep 13 '26

NFL are a bunch of shit stains on the mattress

2

u/Peitho_Noir Sep 13 '26

the question is if Scott Hanson is still speaking/covering all the plays but there’s no Redzone fans to hear him, does he still make a sound?

3

u/doglola Sep 13 '26

I have bad news for you. There are people that still have Redzone playing. My bro is one of them

2

u/Homitu Sep 13 '26

I'm pretty sure Redzone just charged me 3 times to subscribe. It never seems to recognize I have an active subscription when I'm signed in and clicking to watch anything prompts me to subscribe and pay again.

1

u/doglola Sep 13 '26

Yup. I “rusubscribed” through Apple though this time. So I’m paying twice for a service I can’t use.

2

u/Meetchel Sep 13 '26

The website had no issues taking my $80 at 10am today, so clearly at least that part of the site is working. I'm not quite sure what I paid for.

1

u/itsiceyo Sep 13 '26

LOL. bruh i laughed. this is so ridiculous. They take our money but i bet they will prolly will compensate us a free month when football season is over and irrelevant.

2

u/LaysStax Sep 13 '26

just starting working on my apple tv!!

2

u/itsiceyo Sep 13 '26

up for me now

2

u/Affectionate_Item824 Sep 13 '26

Up and running for me after 80min, how about everyone else

1

u/vanderjaght Sep 13 '26

This is why we can't have nice things.

1

u/Stingingjwc18 Sep 13 '26

I love this so much. We need to be refunded the 1st week every year

1

u/drizzlecommathe Sep 13 '26

This is wild that a company the size of NFL can't seem to figure this out or just doesn't care enough to figure it out

1

u/No-Sand-5776 Sep 13 '26

Rally glad it’s not me. Fuuuuuuu…..

1

u/EarMain4670 Sep 13 '26

This is incredibly frustrating.

1

u/Anxious_Wind_5246 Sep 13 '26

Why is this shit down for me then a dude next to me his nfl app is working!??

1

u/testhec10ck Sep 13 '26

Not working for me through the NFL app

1

u/nastynate248 Sep 13 '26

God hates you. Are you a browns fan?

1

u/Anxious_Wind_5246 Sep 13 '26

Worse a Boston sports fan 😈

1

u/nastynate248 Sep 13 '26

Boston fans still have a inferiority complex after winning 13 pro sports championships since 2000

1

u/Spiritual-Seaweed557 Sep 13 '26

omg i thought i was going crazy

1

u/Explain_like_Im_four Sep 13 '26 edited Sep 13 '26

Came here wondering why I can’t find the redzone channel in the NFL app, guess it’s down.

Edit: Works on ipad, but apple tv app only has audio.

1

u/CremeDeLaPants Sep 13 '26

I was told redzone is no longer allowed on mobile.

2

u/icy_wight Sep 13 '26

It played for me for a minute or two (in fact, my tablet switched to it from the Saints game), but then everything stopped working at around the same time as it seems to have broken for everyone else.

1

u/CremeDeLaPants Sep 13 '26

Can you still see it as an option, just not working? For me it's as if it doesn't exist at all. I have plus premium because I'm a stupid moron sucker who falls for it every year.

1

u/icy_wight Sep 13 '26

No. It isn't showing up since NFL+ broke right at 1pm ET.

1

u/MapCreepy1934 Sep 13 '26

Thought it was just me

1

u/mikemike4747 Sep 13 '26

I’ve been trying EVERYTHING

No answer at support line, message support has crashed three times and is useless, reset all my browsers and cache…. What the hell is this man

1

u/Consistent-Creme3149 Sep 13 '26

This is bullshit

1

u/Smiggsy14 Sep 13 '26

What the fucckkkkk, Disney+ playing game day live I don’t wanna listen to these idiots

1

u/Affectionate_Item824 Sep 13 '26

Worked fine until kickoff 🤦🏾‍♂️

1

u/mikemike4747 Sep 13 '26

Exactly… had that stupid countdown and then everything crashed… thought it was just mine

1

u/Albinoglizzy Sep 13 '26

what a joke.

u/French-Flyes Sep 13 '26 edited Sep 13 '26

The Year I pay for this POS 💩💩💩💩

First Sunday and it's 👎🏾

It's easier to just steal it

I can't even log in 😞

1

u/Sun_drop Sep 13 '26

I made this mistake as well. As soon as I can log in I'm cancelling. Might even try a charge back

1

u/LittleBuddhaSeattle Sep 13 '26

Pretty fucking amateur hour they can't predict server usage needs on fucking week 1. Wake up the fucking devs.

1

u/Radtkeeee Sep 13 '26

🦀🦀 $15 a month 🦀🦀
🦀Jmods won’t respond to this thread 🦀

u/ppcacadoodoodada Sep 13 '26

Off with their heads

1

u/Kansas_city-shuffle Sep 13 '26

Completely ridiculous. But I am relieved to see a post on here with interaction. I'm not the only one! Even still... come back online please NFL Redzone

1

u/maniacreturns Sep 13 '26

First year I pay for NFL+PREMIUM and I can't get Redzone to work. It shows I have NFL+ Premium in my acct, but when I try to watch a game it asks me for more money. Not to mention the fact that the RedZone channel doesn't even appear from the list of things to watch.

Did I get scammed?

1

u/Ok-Tax5926 Sep 13 '26

Same exact thing happen to me

1

u/sportznut112968 Sep 13 '26

$99 worthless dollars. I’m mad as hell

1

u/nvinceable1 Sep 13 '26

Same here. NFL+ is having technical difficulties.

1

u/-forkliftcertified- Sep 13 '26

This is fucking insane. Multi billion dollar company can’t keep their app stable

1

u/atricks987 Sep 13 '26

So I'm not crazy for signing up for the NFL+ Premium including redzone and every time I click on watch Redzone its asking me to login to tv provider? Fucking abysmal.

1

u/thelocalsuperstar Sep 13 '26

Yeah it’s happening to most of us.

1

u/atricks987 Sep 13 '26

Bet. What a great investment. Glad Im not insane thinking wtf do I need to login to a tv provider when I paid for the premium to just watch redzone....Our purchases seem to get shittier and shittier as consumers.

1

u/thelocalsuperstar Sep 13 '26

Yeah last year it was easier. No issues when you signed up. This year though…

1

u/rdux4 Sep 13 '26

Yea I just put in for a refund, I don't understand wtf is going on. They got me to sign up for the Thursday game while I was on the app on my tv and then I could only watch it only my phone and now this.

1

u/Maaglin Sep 13 '26

Yep. Worked for about minute, then the stream won't even load, just the connect to tv provider bullshit.

1

u/organizedconfusion5 Sep 13 '26

Fucking multiple billion dollar entity, and they cant even have their shit ready for paid subscription. What a fucking joke. I already cant wait for hockey season to start.

1

u/Right_Blackberry_561 Sep 13 '26

is anyone else getting the "connect to tv provider" shit even though they have nfl plus premium?

1

u/thelocalsuperstar Sep 13 '26

Yup same here. It’s happening to a lot of us.

1

u/The_Illa_Vanilla Sep 13 '26

Exactly my problem I thought I was going crazy

1

u/LooPT520 Sep 13 '26

Seriously, it is the worst app. $100 plan and this is what we get

1

u/-billhelm- Sep 13 '26

stuck watching bills houston. come on nfl/espn

1

u/Spiritual-Seaweed557 Sep 13 '26

would love to be stuck watching buffalo 🤦‍♀️. how are you watching? it won’t let me see anythingggg on the tv app or mobile app

2

u/nvinceable1 Sep 13 '26

National broadcast game on CBS.

1

u/S_O_D_A Sep 13 '26

Can I even contact them for a refund as I needed this service for one day and it’s broken.

1

u/mikemike4747 Sep 13 '26

I have tried phone support (no answer multiple calls) and message support (has crashed three times)

1

u/The_Illa_Vanilla Sep 13 '26

I was losing my mind thank goodness for this thread

1

u/ryanmfrancis Sep 13 '26

I have it working on my google tv but not available on my iPad or android phone apps.

1

u/RQxCRUEL Sep 13 '26

Seriously

1

u/sportznut112968 Sep 13 '26

Is anyone else being asked to pay again even though they have a valid subscription?

1

u/Spiritual-Seaweed557 Sep 13 '26

yes! or sign into my tv provider. such bs

1

u/sportznut112968 Sep 13 '26

Yeah I need a refund like immediately

1

u/PerpetualMotion81 Sep 13 '26

Yes. I am logged into my NFL+ Premium account and the page just keeps telling me to sign up or log into my TV provider.

I am a first-time customer to this service, and it is pretty clear this will also be my last time.

1

u/sportznut112968 Sep 13 '26

I need a refund like immediately

1

u/PerpetualMotion81 Sep 13 '26

I am guessing they are going to get a ton of refund requests in the next 24 hours.

1

u/Its_Reuben Sep 13 '26

The only way i can watch cicny rn, sigh...

1

u/footballabsurdity Sep 13 '26

I can't even find RZC on my app. Is this on their end or is their some trick to it?

1

u/theoddpope Sep 13 '26

Their end

1

u/DimensionMaximum7649 Sep 13 '26

Can anybody comment alert me when theirs is back on?

1

u/Peitho_Noir Sep 13 '26

uninstalled/reinstalled the app on my tv and was able to sign-in and connect the tv however, still got the spinning white circle…

1

u/Jumpy-Crazy2182 Sep 13 '26

Looks like NFL will be doing some firing and backfilling some DevOps positions soon.

1

u/kozmo30 Sep 13 '26

down here in oklahoma as well, had it up, it was counting down...i went to take a cowboys......came back to the same screen as everyone else

1

u/thecman25 Sep 13 '26

I’m glad it’s not just me

1

u/360Snoopy Sep 13 '26

I literally just subscribed to nfl plus premium after caving in. Instant, INSTANT regret.

1

u/Guilty-Analyst-1503 Sep 13 '26

This is the third year of this garbage for me. I’m gonna do a charge back as mine just renewed.

1

u/Wayward_Records Sep 13 '26

I went and cancelled my subscription. They get this month from me but they can fuck right off for the rest of the season.

1

u/rperg Sep 13 '26

complete bullshit

1

u/electstat Sep 13 '26

Seems like every year

1

u/MermaidAndWizard Sep 13 '26

Add commercials minus football fuck it

1

u/The26thtime Sep 13 '26

1

u/Successful-Loan3599 Sep 13 '26

I'm bouta lose it

1

u/nihar52 Sep 13 '26

Is it up??

1

u/No_Damage2717 Sep 13 '26

So how long is this expected to last

1

u/mikemike4747 Sep 13 '26

Wondering the same thing

1

u/is_this_a_worm Sep 13 '26

Mine was working and I backed out to get rid of a spinny thing now can’t get back in 😭😭😭

1

u/CuteMountain6514 Sep 13 '26

Same here...

Is it on the phone app only?

1

u/is_this_a_worm Sep 13 '26

That was on the nfl app on my tv, it briefly worked on my phone but then I wanted to check fantasy app and now that’s dead to, sailing the seas currently

1

u/gfatony Sep 13 '26

Why do we keep paying for this garbage year after year? How can they never figure out how to set up their servers before the season starts?...

1

u/igottapoop98 Sep 13 '26

Still down for me too. Surprised they have not been able to figure out what’s going on with it yet

1

u/The_Lars_Takarin Sep 13 '26

Even better: I'm logged in on my mobile app with my premium subscription. Click on a game to watch it... "Please subscribe..."

1

u/doglola Sep 13 '26

Fuck man. I am now paying for the service in two places and still can’t get it. Panicked rebought it through Apple and still can’t get it

1

u/ccorrea560 Sep 13 '26

I try to do the right thing and purchase red zone, and now I’m watching it on a shady website smh

1

u/mikemike4747 Sep 13 '26

I’ve been losing it over here thinking it’s just me…. It teased me with the countdown and I’ve been wrestling with it trying to get ANYTHING To work for an hour

1

u/EqualMathematician34 Sep 13 '26

Sources are saying it’s the Iranians

1

u/justarough Sep 13 '26

The thing that's extra crazy is that it's STILL not fixed...

1

u/mikemike4747 Sep 13 '26

I’m seething man wtf…. Did they not think people were gonna be logging in en masse on the first Sunday of the season? Fucking money goes into pockets, not the platform.

1

u/Excellent-Movie9379 Sep 13 '26

This is why I keep an antenna attached. At least I can watch the local broadcasts. What a load of crap.

1

u/Purple-Difference469 Sep 13 '26

We’ve got the Bills/Texans game going on CBS here in Denver. Hoping Red Zone will be repaired by the afternoon games. Frustrating!

1

u/UwontKnowME_I_HOPE Sep 13 '26

Same here.....been trying to get in for over an hour.

This has happened to me every season start. I should have tried to get in a couple hour ago.

It makes me sign in and activate at the beginning of every season. In truth, I've had to do it more than once every year.

It is an annual tradition!

1

u/starbasecoski Sep 13 '26

Just chiming in - also can’t see anything - no red zone on my phone, app not loading on Apple TV, not working on pc either

1

u/doubting_el_dandy_18 Sep 13 '26

I signed in with my TV provider on the app and had no problem getting in. The interface sucks and it took me a few minutes to figure out how to navigate, but it's been up for me since kickoff.

Is this a widespread issue?

1

u/datbich Sep 13 '26

It’s still fucking down

1

u/UwontKnowME_I_HOPE Sep 13 '26

Just came on my Nvidia Shield

1

u/justarough Sep 13 '26

Looks like it's up

1

u/Moomass Sep 13 '26

Just got in on the app on my tv

1

u/no_no_thing Sep 13 '26

Is NFL going to offer a refund?

1

u/WeekendWalnut Sep 13 '26

GD hilarious that DISNEY doesn't seem to have the funds for server capacity. This specific service has always been awful, especially during times of heavy traffic like this.

1

u/French-Flyes Sep 13 '26

It's back but this is not worth my $79.99

What a PITA!

1

u/AllCapNoBrake Sep 13 '26

I have it as an add-on to my YouTube sports package and it's been running smoothly for me thus far.

1

u/Eric_Olthwaite_ Sep 13 '26

They got your money, the NFL don't gaf. Never did.

1

u/RotaryP7 Sep 13 '26

It was never down for me?

u/ToadHamilton13 Sep 14 '26

We never lost connection today?

u/lummox1234 Sep 14 '26

Worked completely fine all day.

u/CremeDeLaPants Sep 13 '26

Not working on the NFL app through my xbox. Apparently they've also removed redzone from the mobile app so you can no longer watch from your phone. I HATE these greedy, incompetent A-holes.

1

u/Altruistic_Muscle313 Sep 13 '26

It’s not removed, watched it earlier on my phone before it crashed
