Here’s how to watch every NFL game this season:

Many NFL games are broadcast on local channels, so if you want to watch a game in-market, it may be as simple as turning on your TV (or setting up a digital TV antenna). A $7/month subscription to NFL+ gives you access to NFL Network, which can be a great way to watch some games, but the downside of NFL+ is that during the regular season it’s only local and primetime games (and only on mobile or tablet!). In that case, we recommend watching the NFL.
