The Dolphins vs Jaguars game begins at 8:20 p.m. ET / 5:20 p.m. PT today (Thursday, September 24).
It's on NFL Network, kicking off Week 3 of the NFL 2020 season.

We're minutes away from the Dolphins vs Jaguars live stream, which marks the start of Week 3 of this 2020-21 NFL season. We've got a Florida face-off is already a hairy situation — and no, I'm not talking about the follicles of QBs Ryan Fitzpatrick and Gardner Minshew. Miami's already down 0-2 for the season, and the consensus says they'll fall to 0-3.

Yes, Fitzpatrick's performances in each NFL live stream from this season has been plagued by inconsistency. Admittedly, that's been an issue in his career, so is he also consistently inconsistent? If we see him play more like his game 1 outing (3 INTs, 0 TDs) against the Patriots than his game 2 (2 TDs and 0 INTs) performance against the Bills, we're going to hear fans calling for rookie Tua Tagovailoa to take some snaps. 

Odds, as we've said, put Jacksonville as the favorites to win, and the over-under is set at 48 points at this moment. The Jags have confidence thanks to Minshew, who was even thought of as solid, as his team lost to the Titans by 3 on Sunday. While he had a pair of interceptions, he also threw a trio of touchdowns, and people favor that balance over how lopsided Fitzpatrick's lines tend to be. 

Can Fitzpatrick dust off the haters with a Week 3 performance that continues last week's trend, but also earns a win? If so, tight end Mike Gesicki will likely play a pivotal role, as he had 8 catches for 130 years last week. 

Unfortunately for many, this game breaks isn't on a broadcast TV channel, nor is it on Amazon Prime, as many TNF games will be. 

Here are the best ways to watch the NFL season start with the Dolphins vs Jaguars game:
