Can I Whatch Foot Ball Games With Disney Espn Plus

The NFL's widespread COVID outbreak has led to a reshuffling of the schedule and created a Monday night doubleheader. The Raiders and Browns were slated to play on Saturday and will now play tonight ahead of the regularly scheduled Monday Night Football game between the Vikings and Bears. Two more games -- Seahawks versus Rams and WFT versus Eagles -- have been moved to Tuesday.

The Browns and Raiders kick off in Cleveland at 5 p.m. ET (2 p.m. PT) on the NFL Network. The Bears and Vikings will follow at 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT) on ESPN.

Looking for the popular ManningCast for tonight? Bad news, I'm afraid: Peyton and Eli have the night off and won't return to their alternate MNF broadcast on ESPN2 until January.

Here's how to watch tonight's action, as well as the rest of the NFL season, without cable.

How to stream NFL games

Major streaming providers such as YouTube TV, Hulu Plus Live TV, FuboTV and DirecTV Stream offer nearly all the major channels you will need for football. This includes CBS, NBC and Fox, as well as ESPN, which is needed for Monday Night Football.

Sling TV offers NBC and Fox in some markets with its Blue package, but it lacks CBS. It's also worth noting that to get ESPN you will either need to switch to its Orange package or go for its Blue and Orange bundle.

Those who are fine with watching on phones or tablets, meanwhile, can also use the Yahoo Sports app to stream the games that are broadcast on your local stations for free.

What about RedZone and the NFL Network?

All of those services above, with the exception of DirecTV Stream, offer the option to get RedZone and the NFL Network. RedZone will usually require you to spend another $10 or $11 per month as an add-on.

If RedZone is all you care about, the cheapest option is getting Sling TV Blue for $35 a month and adding the $11-per-month Sports Extra add-on. This gets you all the football channels with the exception of ESPN and CBS.

What channel is the NFL Network?

If you do have cable or satellite, here is where you can find the NFL Network on a few of the bigger providers. Note: The exact channel numbers may change depending on your area, so for best results check your channel guide.

• DirecTV: Channel 212
• Dish Network: Channel 154
• Verizon Fios: Channel 588
• Comcast Xfinity: Channel 180
• Charter/Spectrum: Channel 310
• Altice/Optimum: Channel 219

How about Thursday Night Football?

Most Thursday Night Football games will be broadcast on Fox, NFL Network and Amazon Prime Video. Check out the full Thursday Night Football schedule here and our recommendations for thebest ways to watch NFL without cable throughout the season.

What about Paramount Plus?

Paramount Plus offers live CBS feeds with its Premium tier for $10 a month. Depending on where you live, however, your local CBS station (and those NFL games) might not be available. CBS offers livestreaming services in many markets; you can check if your area has live CBS streaming here.

What about Peacock?

All of NBC's regular-season NFL games will be available to stream on its Peacock streaming service, so long as you pay for one of its Premium subscriptions.

There are two of these tiers, a $5-a-month Premium option that has ads (when watching nonlive content) and a $10-per-month Premium Plus option that will stream nonlive content ad-free (and let you download some content to watch offline).

Sling TV

Carries NBC, Fox and NFL Network for $35 a month

Sling TV's $35-a-month Blue plan includes NBC, Fox and the NFL Network. Enter your address here to see which local channels are available where you live.

Note: This version of Sling TV does not include ESPN. For that, you'll need to switch to the similarly priced Orange plan or go for the combined $50-per-month Orange and Blue bundle. RedZone is also available for an extra $11 a month.

Amazon Prime Video

Carries Thursday Night Football games only

Most Thursday Night games will be available on Amazon Prime Video. For millions of Amazon Prime subscribers, the Prime Video channel is already included at no extra cost. But if you're not a subscriber, it might be worth it to shell out the $9 a month for the stand-alone TV service fee.

All of the live TV streaming services above offer free trials (except Peacock, which just has a free tier that doesn't stream live NFL games), allow you to cancel anytime and require a solid internet connection. Looking for more information? Check out our live-TV streaming services guide.
