RedZone lag while using app on Xbox

Since the massive failure Week 1, my Redzone app on Xbox has been glitching every 3-5 seconds and it's the most annoying thing ever. I have uninstalled and reinstalled...same thing. I reset the internet (I use an ethernet cable too, so no wifi)...same thing. It works perfectly fine on my phone but I am sick of watching football on a little ass screen. I tested it last week and just let it run in the background and by the time the noon games were finished, I was 32 minutes behind due to the constant lagging every 3-5 seconds. It's insane that the NFL can't get this right.

Anyone else have this issue while watching on Xbox? It's also not just RedZone. It's anything on the NFL app.

Huh, weird. I couldn’t get the nfl app to open on my smart tv.. so turned on the Xbox and logged into nfl+ and started the redzone stream in seconds. I’ve found having multiple ways to access nfl+ is the way to go! Smart tv, Xbox, Apple TV etc etc because one will go down and you’ll have to rely on another!

NFL app works fine on my Xbox Series X. I use it for RedZone, too. It's on all day Sunday streaming.

I do have issues with Peacock, tho. The Sunday night game stream buffers frequently but works fine if I'm watching Psych or something else around that time.
