NFL 2024: How to watch every football game this season

Fubo TV gives you access to ESPN, NFL Network, Fox, ABC, CBS, NBC, and over 100 other live channels. Starting at $80 a month, the live TV streaming service is definitely pricey (but certainly not the most expensive option on this list), but it offers nearly all of the channels you’ll need to watch both the NFL preseason and regular season, and still saves you a ton compared to a traditional cable package. Fubo subscribers also get 1,000 hours of cloud DVR storage. The platform also offers a free trial period.

YouTube TV gives you nearly every channel you need for the 2024 NFL season, including Fox, NBC, ABC, CBS, ESPN, and NFL Network. Plus, YouTube TV is the home of NFL Sunday Ticket this season! The Sunday Ticket package, while pricey on its own ($479.99/season), gives you ALL out-of-market Sunday games (160+ games per season).

If you purchase the Sunday Ticket bundle with YouTube TV, you can get both for $146.49 per month for four months (that’s $586 for the season). Now, you’ll need to keep paying for YouTube TV to keep your access to the NFL Sunday Ticket bundle. Right now, you can get your first three months of YouTube TV for $52.99 per month for the first four months. After that, the cost increases to $72.99 per month.

Another advantage of this option is that YouTube includes four months of Max with the YouTube TV + NFL Sunday Ticket package.

One thing to note: YouTube TV live streams tend to have a slight delay, which isn’t great if you’re trying to follow the game live down to the exact second.

Currently, DirecTV Stream is offering its Choice tier (normally $109/month) plus a free month of DirecTV Sports Pack ($14.99/month) in a bundle for $98.99/month (plus tax) for the first month. DirecTV Stream’s Choice tier gives you access to all the usual football suspects: NFL Network, ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox. The Sports Pack add-on will give you access to the ACC Network, Big Ten Network, SEC Network, and plenty of local RSNs. The best part is, you can currently try all of this out for free for 5 days. So if you’re interested in trying out a live TV streaming service for football season but aren’t ready to commit, we recommend starting with DirecTV Stream.

You’ll also get unlimited cloud DVR storage included with any DirecTV package you choose.

Starting at $8 a month, a Peacock subscription will give you access to stream the Green Bay Packers vs. Philadelphia Eagles Sao Paulo, Brazil game exclusively on the platform during kickoff week.

NFL+ also offers a 7-day free trial.

Wait, a flat TV antenna? Aren’t these things supposed to have long, telescoping metal rods (aka bunny ears)? Nope, this new design (which you’ll see from countless other brands) works just as well, and it’s not meant to sit on top of your TV. Instead, you mount it to a wall or window using the included adhesive pads, with the black or white side facing inward to best match your decor.

The aptly named Flatenna is actually flat as a sheet of paper. You just screw one end of the 12-foot cable into the bottom and the other end into the coaxial input on your TV. (Yes, that means there’s an ugly cable running along the wall; consider a Race track kit like this one to help hide it.)

Channel Master promises a range of up to 35 miles, but of course that depends on a number of factors. As mentioned above, optimal placement (as high and unobstructed as possible) makes all the difference.

The big news here is the price: At just $29, the Flatenna is pretty affordable and a good place to start your antenna journey, assuming you don’t mind having a black or white rectangle taped to your wall or window.
