DIRECTV Has All the Biggest Sports of the Year, Including the Super Bowl
It’s Super Bowl Sunday, and if you’re someone who cut the cable cord, you may be scrambling to figure out a way to watch the big game tonight.
In fact, if you’re a sports fan, you’re probably hoping to find a new, more streamlined way to watch all of the sports you love. There is a streaming package out there that includes all of the great sports channels you’re going to want to have at one great low price.
Let us introduce you to DIRECTV via Internet.
What is DIRECTV via the Internet?
DIRECTV, best known for its satellite TV service, now offers the same great live TV experience over the internet with a Gemini Air device (like a Roku or Fire Stick). Depending on the package you choose, you’ll get anywhere from 90 to 185 live channels.
With over 65,000 movies and TV shows available On Demand, you can catch up on your favorites whenever you want. When you connect via the Internet, you’ll also get unlimited cloud DVR storage, so you can record more of the content you love, with no hassle (or satellite) required.
Payment works similarly to cable, though. There is a 24-month agreement required when subscribing to DIRECTV Internet, and you’ll get a two-year price guarantee to avoid price fluctuations within those two years. While month-to-month streaming service offers may be flexible, there is value in keeping your monthly contract rate consistent.
What Sports Can You Watch on DIRECTV via the Internet?
In short, all of them!
With the DIRECTV Choice plan, you’ll gain access to nearly every network you could possibly need to watch whatever sport it is that you’re looking to watch. Here is just a handful of the channels you’ll get, and what sports are streaming on them:
- ESPN (NBA, NHL, NFL, F1, tennis, more)
- ABC (NBC, NHL)
- NBC (NFL, PGA Tour, Premier League, Big 10 Football, Olympics, Super Bowl 2026)
- FOX and FS1 (Super Bowl 2025, NFL, Nascar, international soccer)
- CBS (NFL, PGA Tour, college football, March Madness)

In addition to all of that, you’ll also get local sports channels that allow you to watch your local teams. For example, subscribers in the New York City area will get MSG and MSGSN (Rangers, Islanders, Devils, Knicks), SNY (Mets), and YES (Yankees) included with the Choice plan.
