NFL Games Without Cable: Watch Football Online Anywhere and Never Miss a Touchdown

You don’t need cable to catch all the pro-football action during NFL Week 13. Read on to find out how NFL fans can leave cable behind without missing any games!

In a hurry? Check out these three popular streaming services with which you can watch most NFL games live during the 2023-24 season:

If you are thinking of dumping your cable subscription, your best bet as an NFL fan is an online streaming service with live TV channels. Services like Netflix are on-demand content libraries. They do not offer live feeds showing live NFL games.

On the other hand, some on-demand services like Hulu also have live TV packages that provide you with access to the necessary NFL broadcasting channels. For example, Hulu + Live TV offers ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, ESPN, and NFL Network — alongside other sports stations.

And some, just to be confusing, offer select live events without having any traditional live channels (Prime Video, Paramount+, Peacock).

This article covers different ways you can watch the NFL without cable, so read on to find out more.

How to Stream NFL Games

The televising of NFL games is organized, consistent, and predictable (unlike most other popular pro sports). But that doesn’t keep it from being complicated and difficult to follow.

This chart will give you an overview of which streaming services carry which games, divided by when the games air.

No one service has all the games. Even if it carries all the channels, most Thursday Night Football games require Amazon Prime Video or NFL+. And there are other options for getting around regional broadcast restrictions.

You can refer to our full NFL schedule on this page to find out what channels you need for the games you want to watch.

We’ve got more details on each option — read on.

Fubo: Full Live NFL Game Coverage

Fubo is well-known as the streaming service for sports fans. With it, you can livestream all the national and local NFL games in your area. Fubo offers a wide variety of sports in general.

The service does an excellent job of covering just about every type of sport out there, including international events. And it offers one of the best selections of regional sports networks (RSNs) in the industry.

It features well over 150 channels of live sports, TV shows, and movies. With local channels as well as ESPN and NFL Network, you have everything you need to enjoy the NFL season online.

With the Sports Plus add-on for $10.99/mo, you will also get NFL RedZone and 30+ other sports channels.

You can check out the free trial to see if the service is right for you. See our Fubo review for more info on the service. You can also learn more in our guide about how to watch NFL on Fubo.

It has you completely covered if you are a fan of your local MLB, NHL, or NBA team. And the same goes for the NFL.

It features well over 75+ channels in its base ($79.99/mo) plan. This includes all your local channels. The Choice plan adds NFL Network. And you can get NFL RedZone with the Premier plan ($164.99/mo) or with the Sports Pack add-on ($14.99/mo).

Hulu + Live TV: Watch the Whole 2023 NFL Season

As it stands, Hulu’s live TV plan offers all four local channels you need to livestream the 2023 NFL season for $76.99/mo. It also provides ESPN and NFL Network. To get NFL RedZone, you need the Sports Add-on for $9.99/mo extra.

Alongside the 85+ channels, you get Disney+ and ESPN+. It also comes with unlimited cloud DVR storage for up to 9 months, with streaming on up to two devices at once. If you plan to watch any on-demand content with Hulu, the no-ad plan for an extra $6 may also be worth considering.

You can read our Hulu + Live TV review for more about the plan. Try one month for $76.99.

Sling TV: Low-Cost Service With Lots of NFL

Sling TV is a great deal at $40.00/mo for the Blue plan (or $5/mo more if ABC is included), which features 40+ channels. For NFL viewing, it’s more of a mixed bag because it only provides local affiliates for Fox and NBC (depending on your location).

With the Sling Blue plan, you also get NFL Network. But if you want ESPN, you need the Sling Orange plan (also $40.00/mo). The real football fan should probably get the combined Orange + Blue plan for $55.00/mo. With it, you also get ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN3.

You can get NFL RedZone with the Sports Extra add-on for $11/mo or $15/mo with the Orange + Blue plan.

If the lack of local affiliate channels bothers you, Sling TV offers a free HD antenna when you prepay two months on your subscription. They also have deals on other Sling-optimized gadgetry. In most locations, you should be able to get CBS as well.

Read our Sling TV review to learn more, plus these Sling-specific NFL guides: NFL on Sling, NFL Preseason, NFL RedZone, and Sunday Night Football. Also, head over to Sling TV’s website to try the free on-demand content with a handful of free live channels.

Vidgo: Great for Football Fans

Vidgo is a great deal with a range of live TV channels. For $69.99/mo, you get 110+ channels that span the range of interests.

You get two key local channels, ABC and Fox (select markets), to livestream the NFL season, along with five ESPN channels (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN Deportes, and ESPNews), and NFL Network.

One downside of Vidgo is it only includes 20 hours of cloud DVR storage. But you can stream on up to 3 devices.

To offset the lack of NBC and CBS, you can check out Peacock and Paramount+. Learn more about Vidgo in our review. Try one month for $20.

NFL+: All In-Market Games on Mobile Devices

The subscription also includes access to all live out-of-market preseason games, live game audio, and NFL library programming.

If you normally record live games and watch them later, then NFL+ Premium is a good choice for just $14.99/mo. You get complete full and condensed game replays of all games on all devices, in commercial-free HD 720p.

Other Streaming Services for NFL

• Paramount+: Formerly known as CBS All Access, it allows you to livestream in-market NFL games from CBS Sports for $5.99/mo. Paramount+ Premium provides a lot more along with Showtime. Try Paramount+ for just $1.98/mo!
• Peacock: Get all the games that air through NBC (mostly Sunday Night Football) with this service for $5.99/mo.
• Amazon Prime Video: The only way to stream Thursday Night Football live on your TV. The (possible) good news is that if you already have an Amazon Prime membership, you already have Amazon Prime Video — it’s included with the free shipping.
• ESPN+: It streams 12 games this year including two playoff matchups. The international game on October 1st will be exclusive with Disney+.

Non-Streaming Options for Watching NFL Games

We’re big on streaming, but even we recognize there are some occasions when non-streaming providers are better options. Here are two alternatives to this newfangled streaming.

• Watch for Free with a Digital Antenna: If you live in a location within range of the necessary towers, you can get Fox, CBS, ABC, NBC, and often a lot more — completely free to your TV. In HD! (Trust us, it’s a lot of football.) Sling TV’s even giving them away! Use the FCC’s DTV tool to see what channels you’re missing out on. Read more on antennas.
• We hate to admit it, but sometimes, even for all their faults, your old, expensive (but reliable) satellite or cable provider is your best choice. With increasing competition from the streaming services, many have lowered their rates, or are offering pretty sweet deals. If you have to go this route, we recommend DIRECTV Satellite or DISH Satellite.

Devices to Livestream NFL

You can livestream NFL games on most of the streaming devices in use today using the services we’ve discussed above. These include the following:

There are some exceptions. Vidgo doesn’t support Samsung smart TVs. Neither DIRECTV STREAM nor Vidgo supports LG or VIZIO smart TVs or Xbox systems.

Hulu + Live TV and YouTube TV support PlayStation units.

All the Channels You Need to Stream NFL Games

The simplest bet for NFL fans is to stream games with a service. What’s the best service for streaming NFL games live? Here’s an overview of which live TV streaming services offer the key channels:

NBC	✔️	✔️	✔️‡	✔️	❌
Fox	✔️	✔️	✔️‡	✔️	✔️‡
CBS	✔️	✔️	❌	✔️	❌
ABC	✔️	✔️	✔️†‡	✔️	✔️‡
NFL Network	✔️	✔️	✔️	✔️	✔️
NFL RedZone	💲	💲	💲	💲	💲
ESPN	✔️	✔️	✔️	✔️	✔️

The primetime games are provided nationally by Amazon Prime (Thursday), NBC (Sunday), and ABC/ESPN (Monday). The international games are broadcast by NFL Network other than one exclusive to ESPN+. Holiday games are streamed on a combination of TV channels.

Sunday afternoon games are broadcast between Fox and CBS. But there is a complication: the games are regionally broadcast. There are up to 13 games on any given Sunday afternoon and only 4 will be shown locally. We have a detailed guide about this issue.

Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime Video

In the past, Amazon streamed many Thursday Night Football games. But they also aired on NFL Network or Fox. Now, Thursday Night Football is only on Amazon Prime Video.

In 2023, Thursday Night Football will feature one preseason and 16 regular season games live exclusively from Amazon. There are no Thursday night playoff games.

If your local team is playing on Thursday Night Football, one of your local networks will also air the game.

Your only other option for TNF is to watch on NFL+ — but live games are limited to your mobile device.

We have lots more info on Amazon and Thursday Night Football in our viewing guide.

Sunday Afternoon Football

Sunday afternoon is when most NFL games occur. These Sunday afternoon games air on two local channels: CBS and Fox. Each Sunday afternoon, you will have your choice of 4 games to watch. Of course, since they air in two timeslots, you will only be able to watch two of the games.

The games that are aired in your local media market will be those deemed of most interest to fans there. As a result, you will always see your local team(s) play.

Local NFL Team Channels

Here are all the local CBS and Fox affiliates that broadcast Sunday afternoon games in the local area.

The Sunday Afternoon Problem

On any given Sunday, there are anywhere from four to nine (give or take) games starting at 1:00 pm Eastern (the “early slot”), and three to six starting between 4:00 and 4:30 Eastern (the “late slot”). Your local CBS and Fox affiliates will both choose a maximum of one from each slot.

In other words, on the day with the most football games, you don’t have the opportunity to watch the vast majority of them.

Why do it this way? Because there are 32 teams in the NFL, which has always scheduled games primarily on Sunday afternoon. Most fans prefer to follow their local team, so the current setup works for the most number of people.

Sunday Night Football on NBC

Sunday Night Football consists of one game a week, with kickoff occurring at 8:20 pm. This is often one of the most anticipated games of the week. NBC has exclusive rights to this game, and live

streams them on its streaming service Peacock.

Fubo, DIRECTV STREAM, and Hulu Live all have broad coverage of NBC. Sling carries it in select markets. Vidgo doesn’t have it at all. You could combine Sling TV or Vidgo with Peacock to make up for this.

For more information, please see our guide to Sunday Night Football, or our guide to watching SNF on Sling TV.

Monday Night Football by ESPN Sports

Monday Night Football is presented by ESPN Sports. This means that it’s usually on ESPN and ABC. But some times this season, there are two games and these channels split them.

The Manningcast is presented on ESPN2 for ten games this season. And ESPN Deportes provides Spanish-language coverage of every game airing on ESPN.

Like Thursday Night Football (although less commonly), when your local team plays, a local broadcast affiliate will simulcast the game along with ESPN. That could be CBS, Fox, or another channel depending on your location.

Get more details in our Monday Night Football guide as well as our guide to MNF on Sling TV.

Special Presentation Games

Most of the games fall into the categories above, but there are a few special circumstances throughout the season.

Sunday Morning International Games

The NFL is continuing its series of international games this year. Five are scheduled, all on Sunday mornings at 9:30 am.

Date	City	Teams	Channel
Sun Oct 1	London	Falcons (7) vs Jaguars (23)	ESPN+
Sun Oct 8	London	Jaguars vs Bills	NFLN
Sun Oct 15	London	Ravens vs Titans	NFLN
Sun Nov 5	Frankfurt	Dolphins vs Chiefs	NFLN
Sun Nov 12	Frankfurt	Colts vs Patriots	NFLN

The first London game will be at Wembley Stadium. This game will also feature an alternate real-time feed from the animated Pixar Toy Story setting of Andy’s room. Toy Story Funday Football will stream live along with the game on ESPN+, NFL+, and Disney+.

The other two London games are at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The two games in Germany will be held at the Frankfurt Stadium.

Saturday Games

NFL schedules Saturday games once the NCAA Bowl Games start.

• Sat Dec 16 (Week 15): 3 games TBD
• Sat Dec 23 4:30 pm (Week 16): Steelers @ Bengals (NBC)
• Sat Dec 23 8:00 pm (Week 16): Bills @ Chargers (Peacock)

The unscheduled games will be chosen at some point “over the 2023 season.” Traditionally, we don’t have the Week 15 schedule until about a week before.

The second Week 16 game is Peacock’s annual exclusive game.

Holiday Games

Deck the halls with pigskin pennants! The NFL is planning some extra festive triple headers for Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day this year.

Thanksgiving Day (Thurs Nov 23, Week 12)

• 12:30 pm: Green Bay Packers @ Detroit Lions (Fox)
• 4:30 pm: Washington Commanders @ Dallas Cowboys (CBS)

How is the National Football League structured?

The NFL is divided into 2 conferences (AFC and NFC) with 4 divisions. AFC North: Baltimore, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Pittsburgh. AFC South: Houston, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Tennessee. AFC East: Buffalo, Miami, New England, NY Jets. AFC West: Denver, Kansas City, Oakland, LA Chargers. NFC North: Chicago, Detroit, Green Bay, Minnesota.

What are the top NFL teams for the 2023-24 season? [Updated Sep 28th, 2023]

No one can say for sure, of course, but most of the sportsbooks have set odds on the different teams to win the Super Bowl. They disagree in minor ways with each other, but the ordering is pretty consistent for the top contenders. The change listed is from the start of the regular season.

1. San Francisco 49ers (↑4)
2. Kansas City Chiefs (↓1)
3. Philadelphia Eagles (↓1)
4. Miami Dolphins (↑6)
5. Buffalo Bills (↓2)
6. Dallas Cowboys (–)
7. Baltimore Ravens (↑1)
8. Cincinnati Bengals (↓3)
9. Detroit Lions (–)
10. Cleveland Browns (↑↑)

BetMGM has the Dolphins and Bills tied. DraftKings has the Bills and Cowboys tied, and the Ravens and Bengals also tied, with the Lions between them. Fanduel puts the Bills above the Dolphins with SF and KC tied and the Dolphins and Cowboys tied.

How do I watch NFL games in Spanish?

How you will watch NFL games in Spanish will depend on where you are watching. Prime Video, as of 2022, features an alternate Spanish-language stream of Thursday Night Football with its own on-air announcers. You can watch Sunday Night Football games (or any NBC NFL broadcast) on Telemundo or Universo. And you can watch Monday Night Football on ESPN Deportes.

Fox Sports shows some of its specially scheduled games in Spanish on Fox Deportes, but it doesn’t do this for its regular Sunday afternoon games.

CBS dubs its games in Spanish; check your audio settings to switch to the Spanish language track. The NFL has announced that the Super Bowl, on CBS this year, will be covered in Spanish by TelevisaUnivision.

A low-tech but effective workaround is to mute your TV and get Spanish-language audio either through Entravision or a local Spanish-language radio station in your area. Just be aware there may be a delay between your streaming broadcast and the radio.

How do I stream NFL games on my phone?

NFL+ was made for streaming NFL games on your phone. For $6.99/mo, you can stream live any local or nationally televised game on your phone. For $14.99/mo, you can watch unlimited replays (not just on your phone), and they’ll throw in NFL RedZone. You can find more details on NFL+ plans and benefits in our full NFL+ review.

You can also use any of the live TV streaming services to watch NFL games on your phone.

Can I watch NFL games using a VPN?

Yes, you can use a VPN to watch games with the streaming services reviewed above. A VPN, or Virtual Private Network, is a type of connection software that provides an extra layer of security and privacy. More relevantly, for the purposes of watching NFL games, it can change where the internet thinks you are located in the world. We recommend ExpressVPN. See our VPN NFL game viewing guide for all the details.

Superpower Your Sports Streaming With a VPN

For the sake of privacy, security, and access, you should be using a VPN. They are low-cost and easy to use. We’ve been using them for years and our top pick is ExpressVPN. Other brands worth checking out include Hotspot Shield and CyberGhost.

i	Our VPN Buyer’s Guide provides a complete introduction and all you need to know to choose the best VPN for your needs.

What is the NFL Network?

NFL Network is the NFL’s official basic cable channel. It has news, analysis, as well as series and specials about football. It used to show Thursday Night Football before Amazon took that over. Today, the NFL Network features lots of preseason games, four out of five international games, and the Holiday Classic on Christmas Eve. It’s included in most TV provider base plans, as well as NFL+ and the NFL Game Pass.

What is NFL RedZone?

NFL RedZone is a special channel that’s only on the air for seven hours on Sunday afternoons. Their tagline is “Every touchdown from every game,” and they deliver. Every Sunday from 1:00 pm until 8:00 pm, Scott Hanson breathlessly covers every amazing pass, major drive, and score. If you find yourself bored during the endless time-outs and commercial breaks, and just want to watch the exciting parts, then RedZone is for you.

You can get NFL RedZone from most TV providers, though it’s always in a higher tier or add-on. It’s also included with NFL+ Premium and NFL Game Pass.

Do I need NFL Sunday Ticket?

Most NFL fans do not need Sunday Ticket. The NFL has actually done quite a good job distributing games to fans. And most of it is done for free. NFL Sunday Ticket has a certain reputation as the thing serious fans fork over hundreds of dollars for but it’s really just certain kinds of fans who should do so. And those are fans who are focused on one or more non-local teams.

Check out our guide to out-of-market NFL watching, which also has links to guides on how to watch specific teams, and our NFL Sunday Ticket review for further discussion.

How do Fox and CBS divvy up the Sunday afternoon games?

Up until this year, CBS had the rights to AFC games, and Fox had the rights to NFC games. If it was an inter-conference game, the away team usually determined the broadcaster. According to NFL Operations, this year this is no longer necessarily the case. However, if you examine the schedule, most games tend to follow this guideline.

How do I livestream CBS NFL games?

There are several ways to livestream CBS NFL games. One top recommendation is Fubo. However, if CBS is the only channel you’re missing, you can try its parent company’s streaming service, Paramount+. For just $5.99/mo, it provides live access to NFL matchups. This service only covers games that will air on CBS.

How do I watch NFL games live for free?

If you have searched for free NFL games to watch, you undoubtedly have come across a lot of services that are scams. The only legal ways to watch NFL for free are:

• Use a free trial of one of a paid streaming service
• Get an antenna for local channels.

We recommend staying away from illegal sites. They are potentially dangerous.

Much better to install an HD antenna or subscribe to a low-cost service like NFL+.

How much of the NFL season can I watch with free trials?

There are not enough free trials to watch even half the NFL season. But you can go for a while — roughly 5 of 18 weeks. Here is a list of the services and how you can use them:

• Amazon Prime Video: Offers a 30-day free trial, which allows you to watch 4 weeks of Thursday Night Football.

Why are some NFL games not scheduled this year?

Five games in Week 15 and all the games in Week 18 don’t have dates, times, and channels assigned to them. This is to allow the NFL the flexibility to gain larger audiences. During Week 15, three games will be on Sunday, but the two games with the most viewership potential will be played on Saturday. Once the playoff picture is clear, the games will be scheduled, and we will provide it here.

Can I livestream NFL on Amazon Prime?

Yes, you can. Amazon Prime subscribers can watch most Thursday Night Football matches starting with the 2022 season, directly from the Prime Video app. Amazon Prime costs $139 per year and includes free 2-day shipping on Amazon, free video streaming, and more.

How can I watch Thursday Night Football online?

This is the second year that you will not be able to watch the whole NFL season with cable alone because most Thursday Night Football games will be available to stream only. You can watch these with Amazon Prime Video. You can also watch these games live with a subscription to NFL+, but you can only watch live on mobile devices.

How do I watch NFL playoffs online?

Once the playoffs are underway, there are plenty of ways to watch online. Options are pretty similar to the regular season, with games airing on ESPN, Fox, NBC, and CBS. So services like Fubo and Hulu + Live TV will work well for you. You can learn more in our NFL playoffs guide.

How can I watch Monday Night Football online?

To livestream Monday Night Football online, you need to have access to ESPN. The streaming services we reviewed above offer ESPN, like Fubo, Vidgo, Hulu + Live TV, and Sling TV. You can also watch on ABC. ESPN+ ($9.99/mo) streaming 12 games this year. And ESPN2 features some games with alternative commentary from Eli and Peyton Manning (aka, the Manningcast.)

How can I watch Sunday Night Football without cable?

Since Sunday Night Football airs exclusively on NBC, you need an option with that channel. The cheapest way is to use an antenna, but this will depend on where you are located. A more general option is to livestream with a service like Fubo or Hulu Live, which allows you to watch Sunday Night Football online without cable TV in most areas.

Didn’t live games on mobile used to be free on the NFL app or NFL.com?

Yes, they did. Until 2022, you could watch in-market and nationally televised games free on your mobile device with the Yahoo Sports app, the NFL app, or on nfl.com. If that sounds familiar, it’s because the NFL is now charging $6.99/mo for basically the same service on NFL+.
