When you buy select Samsung QLED or OLED TVs

Football season inspires some of the best TV deals of the year. If you're tempted to bring home your new TV at the start of the season (rather than waiting until Black Friday or playoffs), consider buying a Samsung — with your purchase, you'll also get a free way to watch a ton of NFL games. As of Sept. 9, Samsung is throwing in a free year of ESPN's new streaming service (a $299.99 value) with the purchase of a glare-free TV. These include The Frame Pro, S95F OLED, and several 4K and 8K Neo QLED models, most of which are also on sale themselves. You could save upwards of $1,000 with these combined savings.

Finding a way to watch NFL games for cheap is an art form these days — especially now that StreamEast met its demise. The ESPN DTC streaming service is one new strategy to add to your playbook this year. A subscription gets you access to all ESPN networks: ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNEWS, ESPN Deportes, SEC Network, and the ACC Network, plus ESPN on ABC, ESPN+, ESPN3, SECN+, and ACCNX. It's one way to watch any live game on ESPN or ABC. The Samsung promo covers the ESPN Unlimited Plus plan, which is set to show 47,000 live events total throughout the year.

In terms of the TVs you'll be choosing from, Samsung didn't hold back on offering its best models. Here's a full breakdown of all the Samsung TV deals eligible for the ESPN promo:

While dark scenes and nighttime watching are typically an OLED TV's wheelhouse, Samsung's S95F OLED is often referred to as one of the brightest OLEDs on the market — crucial for watching sports in daylight. There's a serious price slash on every size of the Samsung QN1EF, which is already a budget-friendly QLED option even at full price. Plus, we think Samsung's The Frame Pro is one of the best TVs of the year. All QLED models listed here are Neo QLED, which combines the classic layer of quantum dots we're used to with QLED technology, paired with mini LEDs.
