however if you live in a foreign country you can view the games live. So the trick is when you sign up for NFL Game Pass you use a VPN that makes it look like you are connecting from another country, and when you start the streams every Sunday you also use the VPN to start the stream.
If you google "VPN NFL Game Pass" there is a lot of info about it.

Try that out and let us know if this actually works. Personally, I think it's stupid that DirecTV is the only conduit for watching out of market games live, legally. With the advancement in internet streaming services, I think it's about time for the NFL to sever that partnership and provide that service directly to the consumer no matter what TV service (or no service) they have. And I think with the approaching new ATSC 3.0 standard coming, the NFL would then have the technical ability to offer a service like NFL Sunday Ticket to cordcutters. Even if it costs $300/season, I would still be willing to pay that over having to be a DirecTV subscriber. If you don't know anything about ATSC 3.0, read up on it. It's going to change life for cord cutters.
