Madden NFL 25 Anniversary Edition for PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 bundled with NFL Sunday Ticket
Store: Amazon
Price: $99.99 with free shippingIs It Worth It?: We're calling this one an Editors' Choice, as Madden NFL 25 is one of the season's most anticipated gaming titles. Although it's list price for this special edition, it includes a code good for a 2013 regular season (17 weeks) trial of NFL Sunday Ticket on computer, tablet, and mobile devices. While GameSpot had issues with the game not including enough new twists, it praised Madden NFL 25 as "still a very comprehensive and full-featured treatment of NFL football."
Of note, there are three available options for the NFL Sunday Ticket code. If you have DirecTV service and NFL Sunday Ticket Max you can access NFL Sunday Ticket on your computer and mobile devices using your current DirecTV username and password. If you don't have DirecTV service, you can sign up for DirecTV and get $10 off per month for the first year of service and one year of NFL Sunday Ticket Max at no additional charge. Or, if you can't get DirecTV service, the code will allow access to the 2013 regular season (17 weeks) trial of NFL Sunday Ticket on computers, tablets, and mobile devices — including Red Zone.

Avanti 1.7-Cubic Foot Portable Party Pub
Store: Staples
Price: $199.99 with free shipping
Lowest By: $41Is It Worth It?: We listed this party pub for $20 less last week, but the current price is still so good, we'd be remiss to omit it from our roundup. With this dual kegerator, you'll serve as the life of the party, wearing your team's colors and, if called upon by your friends, a lampshade on the head. (Better yet, you should settle for a football helmet instead: It's more apropos for the season.) Available in Stainless Steel, it can accommodate up to two 5-liter mini-kegs and features a draught-style handle and tap, digital temperature control, CO2 regulator and pressure gauge, and interior LED lighting.

Mainstays Home Theater Recliner
Store: Walmart
Price: $134 with in-store pickup
Lowest By: $126Is It Worth It?: See this chair? Never mind that Walmart says it comes in Camel (pictured) or Sierra, as the color in the photograph looks an awful lot like "football brown" to us. This faux leather chair features a push-back recliner design, which, as we all know, proves ideal for operating a remote at extra-comfy angles. You supply the armchair quarterback banter, beer and chips sold separately. And remember: You can juke like a running back, and dodge the $19.97 shipping charge, by choosing Site-to-Store pickup.
