Unlurking...the Apple TV might be good for that situation too. It's about the size of a hockey puck and you can get SportsCenter on demand. If you could get Sunday Ticket or Red Zone on there? Might push a lot of folks to cut the cable company out.

I think the odds of that are slim though. DirecTV will pay for that deal until they go under to keep it exclusive.
My guess is that you COULD get something like NFLST to work using the mirroring function, but it wouldn't work that well. The way it's really designed to work is that you use another device to point it to whatever video needs to be played, then it connects directly to that video (independent of the controlling device).

For something that's not supported like NFLST, it has to actually stream a mirror of the tab from Chrome. That might work, but I bet it's choppy at best, and you'd have to keep your computer with Chrome open the entire time.
