Sunday comes around, your team is playing, and the game isn’t on any channel you pay for. Out-of-market rules decide which games a TV provider shows you, and those rules depend on where you are. NordVPN changes the city your streaming app sees. The timing is good, too.
Right now the Basic plan costs $3.49 a month, a 69% discount, which totals $94.23 for a 27-month term against $312.93 at the usual rate. The savings are $218.70, and three months come on top of the two years.
Pick a US City, Then Open the App
NordVPN has servers in 55 US cities, so you choose the one carrying the game you want. Pittsburgh, Buffalo, and Kansas City are on the list, along with most cities that have a team. I connected to New York, signed up for NFL+ on that connection, and watched on my phone with the VPN alone. No GPS spoofing was required, and I didn’t install a second app.
YouTube TV worked the same way from a US city, and Prime Video’s UK page for Game Pass opened as well. Connect before you open the app, and there’s nothing else to do.
It Works on the TV as Well
DAZN Canada includes NFL Game Pass. My existing DAZN account kept the catalog of the country it was created in, so I made a new one on the Canadian connection, and the Game Pass listing appeared. I watched it on a Fire TV Stick and on a Roku with the connection shared from my PC. Roku doesn’t support VPN apps, so the connection has to come from a computer or a router.
Android TV and Apple TV have their own NordVPN apps. Picture quality depends on speed. On the Canadian server, NordVPN recorded 185.72 Mbps, compared with 190.36 Mbps on the same connection without it. Either figure leaves room for the highest quality setting these apps offer.
The Basic Plan Covers Every Screen in the House
The Basic plan at $3.49 includes the VPN and nothing extra. It connects 10 devices at once, which covers a household with two televisions and a few phones. Servers span 152 countries, so the same subscription is useful long after the season. NordVPN keeps no logs of what you do online, and that policy is independently audited.
I’d start with the Basic plan and upgrade later if you want the antivirus and password manager on the Complete plan at $4.49. A 30-day money-back guarantee applies, which covers four Sundays of football before you’ve committed to the term. The regular season goes on into January, and the price stays at $3.49 for the full 27 months once you subscribe.
