Fans know the problem well. Everything is fine if you just care about one team. But if you want to see everything, you can’t. There are 8 games on during one period and 5 games on during the other.
NFL RedZone fixes this problem by curating the action. It focuses on the games in the red zone. And when more than one game needs attention, RedZone offers the Octobox.

FAQs
Can I get NFL RedZone for free?
NFL RedZone is strickly a pay TV channel. Other than getting it free for a few days with a trial, it is not available. And every service that offers it charges roughly $10 to $11 does for it — on top of its base price. And that is why Sling TV is the cheapest way to stream NFL RedZone.
Can I get NFL RedZone alone?
It appears that NFL RedZone was once available as a standalone service. But even then, it was only available on phones and other mobile devices. This year, NFL+ has integrated NFL RedZone with its Premium plan. It costs $14.99/mo but if it’s all that you care about, it’s a good deal.
