Interesting.  I just looked that up and The Athletic stated:

Quote:Under consideration from Apple is adding choices like allowing fans to buy just one team’s out-of-market games, or perhaps even standalone games, sources said.

That might be a good thing for out-of-market Bengals fans.  So instead of paying the full price for all of Sunday Ticket they could just subscribe to the Bengals games for a reduced price.  I think Apple TV+ is $5.00 a month. So it would be $5.00 a month plus whatever the package cost for the games.  I have a year free because I bought a new iPhone several months ago and they tossed that in.  It's okay, not great.  I don't watch it very often. I probably won't renew when the free year ends.
