High school football documentaries aren’t typically at the top of my watchlist, but sitting in a screening room in Pittsburgh — just hours before the 2026 NFL Draft takes over the city — 'Hall of Fame High' hit differently.

Aliquippa, nicknamed “Quip” by locals, has produced an almost unbelievable number of NFL legends, including Mike Ditka, Tony Dorsett, Darrelle Revis and Ty Law. That alone should be enough to justify a film crew’s visit to the school district. But director Jesse Washington set out to answer a more compelling question: why here?

Naturally, I would suggest you learn the answer for yourself by watching the 45-minute-or-so documentary produced by Dick’s Sporting Goods’ in‑house production studio, Cookie Jar & A Dream Studio.

But at the time I’m writing this, 'Hall of Fame High' is not publicly available to stream. So instead, here’s what you should know in the meantime about a school that has quietly become a pipeline to the NFL.

The first thing that stuck with me was hearing how many of the prolific players I listed grew up watching their parents or relatives go through the same program. Aliquippa has a reputation of sorts for breeding competitors. Not everyone becomes a Hall of Famer, of course, but the film maps out family trees that make it hard to ignore the generational through-line.

The other half of the story is rooted in western Pennsylvania’s industrial past. When the famous steel mills shut down in the 1980s, what remained was a work ethic built around purpose and expectations of success.

According to the Hall of Fame players spanning decades of professional careers, those expectations start young, especially when it comes to accountability.

Aliquippa High School football coach Mike Warfield once famously said, “You can't buy this at Dick's,” referring to the unique formula that fosters the program’s winning mentality. It’s quite the full-circle moment for the Pittsburgh-based sporting goods chain to have backed this documentary, don’t you think?

Because as Pittsburgh becomes the center of the football world for Draft festivities, 'Hall of Fame High' zooms in on a much smaller place and shows how greatness is passed down rather than manufactured. There’s something to be said for a football-loving town that refuses to lower its expectations.

While the film answers its central question, I found myself curious about what the program looks like today, almost wanting a "Last Chance U"-style version of it. Something tells me using cameras to chase the next football star would go against what Aliquippa is, though.

Either way, now when I inevitably hear about an NFL Draft pick from Aliquippa in the future, it’ll come with a bit of context.

After the victory comes the eulogy. "Super Bowl Champions: The 2025 Seattle Seahawks" is a film produced by NFL Films and narrated by "The Walking Dead: Dead City" star (and Hawks fan) Jeffrey Dean Morgan, which distils the franchise's Super Bowl-winning campaign into a 75-minute tribute.

Here's how to watch “Super Bowl Champions: The 2025 Seattle Seahawks" online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

On February 8, 2026, the Seahawks crushed the Patriots 29-13 to win the 60th Super Bowl, with Kenneth Walker III racking up 135 rushing yards from 27 carries and Sam Darnold throwing for 202 yards and a touchdown. But it was Mike Macdonald and Aden Durde's vaunted defense, dubbed "The Dark Side", that will be mythologized for years to come.

Yet aside from Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba, the Seahawks were snubbed at the NFL Honors.

The feature-length documentary splices behind-the-scenes footage captured by the team together with extended highlights and, NFL Films claims, "the largest compilation of player and coach wired sound from throughout the season ever" for a production of this nature.

We’re live!

Hello everyone and welcome to our coverage of the 60th Super Bowl!

Keep tuned for what promises to be a rollercoaster of a day as we talk you through all the action as it unfolds.

Super Bowl: Where, when, why and what?

We imagine you'll have a lot of questions.

Where is the action taking place?

When does the main action start?

Why is it happening in California even though no Cali teams are playing?

What do I need to know about the next 4-6 hours?

And most importantly who will be taking home the Vince Lombardi Trophy?

All in good time, we'll answer these all soon!

Where is the action taking place?

So, where is the action taking place?

Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara to be precise, just across the bay from San Francisco. This venue has served as the home of the San Francisco 49ers for over 10 years.

But how come they're hosting if the 49ers didn't make it to the Super Bowl?

Well, it's a part of a bidding process where cities bid to host the biggest sporting event of the year. It's a coincidence when cities host and have a team in the Super Bowl.

How do I watch the Super Bowl?

Perhaps the most important question now: how do I watch all the action?

We've got you covered. Check out our page dedicated to how to watch all the American football action no matter where you are in the world.

Whether it's Peacock if you're USA based or elsewhere, read more here.

Who's playing and who's the favourite?

It's the New England Patriots vs the Seattle Seahawks.

We know you already know that, you wouldn't be reading this if you did.

But who's looking like the favourite? Early conventional wisdom has Seattle as the bookie's favourite but New England have lifted more Super Bowl trophies.

Will the underdogs make it a record-breaking seventh win or will Seattle provide a win for the West Coast with the home crowd more than likely on their side?

Only time will tell...

Battle of the Titans

Every team loves a narrative and these two giants are no different.

New England Patriots were dominating when it came to Super Bowl appearances for much of the 2000s and 2010s in the heady days of Tom Brady...but recently not so much.

That is until Drake Maye who looks set to fill the big shoes of Brady and bring New England to a possible win today. Will he deliver?

And then we have Seattle Seahawks with Sam Darnold. Having only one victory and three appearances at Super Bowl, Seattle are putting all their chips with Darnold who has had a journey from player of ridicule to the Comeback King.

But which team and player will see them to victory?

Not here for the sports?

So, we've talked a lot about the sporting action but - he says in a barely audible whisper - maybe you don't like American Football?

A lot of Americans and viewers from around the world tune in for much more than this. It's as much about the atmosphere as it is the two teams battling out on the field.

And that includes the halftime show which this year will be Bad Bunny's terrain. The Puerto Rican rapper - who scooped up some Grammys less than a week ago - is a phenomenally popular artist who will be sprinkling his own flavour over proceedings.

He'll be singing and rapping fully in Spanish, the first non-English performance in Super Bowl history. It's sure to be explosive, keep tuned for that.

Less than an hour until kick off!

Well, the hour is nearly here.

In 40 minutes, we'll be kicking off the action in California.

Anticipation for one of - if not - the biggest sporting event of the year is high and we're hoping for a riveting game.

Still not sure how to watch the action where you are? Check out this handy guide here.

Who is Vince Lombardi?

You'll know his name from the trophy named after him, but who is Vince Lombardi?

Well, back in the 1960s as head coach, he led the Green Bay Packers to three straight and five total NFL Championships.

Not only is he considered the greatest America Football coach all of all time, but he is often thought as one of the greatest sport coaches ever.

So, now you know.

A handy guide to understanding American Football

With the rise of NFL in other countries, such as the UK, there's a lot of understanding to do.

NFL UK have put together a very handy guide to understand all the rules.

You're welcome.

Welcome Green Day!

Doing the pre-show this year, we have California locals: Green Day.

They open with some of their classic songs from American Idiot. Their masterpiece Holiday is their first song.

Interesting to see if they get political given what this album was protesting and their stance on the current government.

American Idiot closes their set

Now, Green Day play their signature song which already sounds like it was bleeped slightly.

They're being fairly apolitical as the occasion demands but it's no surprise they played it now in America.

How do you follow this explosive opening?

Seattle Seahawks enter!

The Seahawks are in the building!

They will be led by their five captains WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba, CB Devon Witherspoon, FB Brady Russell, DE Leonard Williams and WR Cooper Kupp.

Will the favourites prevail?

Enter New England!

Here come the New England Patriots!

The six time Super Bowl winners are looking for a seventh to see them break a record...whether they can do it or not is a different matter.

Are you cheering on the East Coast as they take on the West Coast?

America the Beautiful is performed

A stirring rendition of America the Beautiful is performed by Grammy-winning Washington local artist Brandi Carlile.

Classy stuff from the Seattle Seahawks fan.

Charlie Puth has the unenviable job

And now the hardest job of the night apart from the halftime show: the national anthem.

Artists have been slated and lauded in equal measure for their interpretations before.

Puth does a pretty decent job, a gentle rendition from the guy who sang the Fast and Furious weepy song.

It's nearly time!

The stage is set, and it's nearly time to go!

Are you ready?

Make sure you kow how you're watching the action where you are here.

Super Bowl Hall of Famers watch on

Manning, Montana, you know a few of these names.

They watch on from the sidelines as they prepare for the start.

Find out how you can watch for free if you're in America now.

New England win the coin toss!

And there we go: the Patriots win the coin toss!

This means that New England will kickoff and take the ball after halftime, a massive advantage psychologically too before any action has even been played.

Kickoff!

The moment you've been waiting for!

New England kickoff and seem happy with it.

Steady progress for Seattle

After New England's kickoff we've watched Seattle make steady progress up the field.

Nothing for either teams yet but keep posted.

Seattle score 3!

As soon as I type that it's 0-0, Seattle go on and add three to the scoreboard!

A lovely early edge for the Seahawks as they dominate early doors.

3-0.

Any Canadians watching?

And a shoutout to any Canadians watching, the friendly neighbours up north!

Maybe they'll be cheering on Seattle, Washington who share a border with Canada.

Regardless, here's how you can watch all the action if you're based here.

New England slowed down

Hall, of Seattle Seahawks, successfully takes down the ball from New England!

Very good defensive play as they don't give up too much ground.

Seattle miss a big opportunity!

Seattle launches the ball up the field in what looks like it could be a huge opportunity...

...but no one's there to receive it!

The score still stands at 3-0 to the Seahawks.

How do I watch the halftime show?

This halftime show may be one of the most talked about of recent years

A tall order consider Kendrick played last year in an incredible but contentious set where he performed his iconic diss track Not Like Us about Drake.

But how do you watch all the action as Bad Bunny takes the stage?

Read all about it here.

Some celebs watching on...

Tennis player Roger Federer, Apple CEO Tim Cook and rapper Jay-Z.

It's a random assortment of celebs - some appearing in the news for the wrong reasons recently - but reflects how diverse the crowd watching at home is too.

Seattle defence works overtime!

Are New England lacking in their offence or are Seattle playing a great defensive game?

More the latter but New England are struggling to find points as Seattle still lead with three.

3-0.

If you had to describe the action so far in a single picture:

Start of second quarter

As one quarter ends, another begins.

A low scoring game so far as both teams get a sense of the other but the quarterbacks have certainly see plenty of action.

Will this continue?

A close call for New England

Seattle make a hell of a lot of progress!

New England nearly allow the ball to be caught near touchdown in a slip but thankfully no game.

But two successive charges up the field see Seattle get ever closer to scoring some more points on the scoreboard.

Will the East Coast hold off the West Coast or is this fighting the inevitable?

An alternative halftime show (that nobody asked for)

Some not content with the announcement of Bad Bunny's halftime performance have taken it upon themselves to organise an 'alternative halftime show' led by faded country singer Kid Rock.

Not sold? Me neither.

Well, if you want to tune into this far-right protest - who were outraged at the idea of a non-English halftime show - on your own head be it but here's how you can do so here.

Let me know if it's any good.

6-0 to Seattle!

With the New England Patriots refusing to budge in the red zone, Seattle use their initiative and kick an incredible field goal thanks to the talent of Jason Mayers.

While Seattle have doubled their lead, this looks likes it'll be a low scoring game all in all unless either team can capitalise on a burst of momentum.

Who's your money on?

You can always rely on dramatic pictures at Super Bowl

A game of defence (so far)

To be fair to both teams, their defences are incredibly strong.

The downside? This means not as much dramatic action and a very lethargic score early doors.

You can see both offensive teams struggling to find gaps but it just takes a slip up to change that score dramatically for either side.

A reminder for our Americans and Canadians how to watch the action where they are.

Even the celebs are checking their phones

Jessica Alba, Billie Joe Armstrong and Tobey Maguire.

Another strange who's who of celebs gracing the Super Bowl crowd but they all seem preoccupied with their phones or partners.

Albeit it's a break between action but this could be remembered as one of the slower Super Bowls...or maybe it'll end in an explosive final quarter as tends to happen.

It's anyone's guess.

Approaching the end of 2nd quarter

With less than one minute left of 2nd quarter, we may still be at 6-0 by the end of play which would mean three points scored in each quarter by Seattle.

However, the positive? The halftime show is just around the corner...

A reminder how to watch the halftime show here.

(And the alternative one too, I guess)

A great interception but three points to Seattle still

As it looked like the ball was heading to Seattle in the touchdown, New England jumped in front and stopped it dead in the water.

Inevitably the Seahawks scored another three points for their efforts with 10 seconds left.

9-0.

Lowest scoring first half since 2018

That's the big stat so far: Lowest scoring first half since 2018.

We hope viewers, particularly around Europe where it's after midnight, aren't falling asleep.

Thankfully, the halftime show is on soon!

Here's the halftime show!

Strap in as Bad Bunny's time approaches...

Enter Bad Bunny!

Bad Bunny cuts a fine figure in a white getup, a subversion of the American football outfit holding the football with a tropical jungle surrounding.

The dancers take over in a steamy halftime show and it's only just starting!

Shout out to Puerto Rico!

No habla Espanol but even I recognised Bad Bunny's shout out to his home country. Hola, Puerto Rico!

He's wasting no time and has an infectious energy as he goes through his back catalogue.

Viewers in Puerto Rico and elsewhere can find out where to watch the Super Bowl where you are here.

Enter and exit Lady Gaga!

A blink and you'll miss it appearance from previous Super Bowl alum Lady Gaga!

Nice to see her, whether she'll be back to accompany Bad Bunny later is anyone's guess.

A costume change to a white suit and Bad Bunny picks up where he left off.

God Bless America...and others!

The only English Bad Bunny speaks in this electrifying set is his closing line 'God bless America' and continues to list other countries as well such as Mexico, Canada, El Savador, Ecuador and - of course - Puerto Rico!

He slams the American football down on the ground and marches off the field. A triumphant and defiant performance, balancing a line between apolitical but still saying plenty without explicitly saying anything outrageous.

Wonder how Kid Rock did.

Pedro Pascal, Karol G, Ricky Martin and Cardi B...a who's who of Latinx celebs!

And back to the game...

Well, that will have woken up grandad nodding off in his chair!

The third quarter is now in play after Bad Bunny vacates the stage and hopefully he can pass some of that energy on to the offensive for either Seahawks or Patriots.

We'll find out soon...

Less than 10 minutes of third quarter

We've got less than 10 minutes on the clock when it comes to this quarter and we're still to see a single point from New England.

While they've proved strong on defence, they've struggled to deliver the goods when it comes to offensive play.

Can they break the pattern of play so far and provide the ultimate upset? Anything's possible, I guess.

A near flash of brilliance from New England

New England had a serious case of momentum as they charged forward, en route to the touchdown...but thwarted by a strong defence.

With five minutes on the clock this quarter, the Patriots have their work cut out if they want this seventh record-breaking Super Bowl win.

We're mow in the territory of 'potential greatest upset in Super Bowl history' if the East Coast somehow prevail against the West Coast.

What a sight that would be though.

The touchdown alludes New England

Forget touchdowns, New England can't even seem to get the ball into the field goal range.

Less than a minute to go and the idea of any Patriot points seems unlikely in this quarter.

Maybe next quarter, eh lads?

End of third quarter

A magnificent touchdown for Seattle!

Another moment of inspiration as Seattle finds a body in the touchdown with a triumphant throw and a giant catch.

6 points thanks to AJ Barner!

A sloppy mistake or great play? A bit of both to be honest.

19-0.

An incredible touchdown courtesy of Seattle

A touchdown (finally) for New England!

Not to be outdone, New England also score a touchdown within five minutes of Seattle's!

It's just nice to see some numbers on the board for the East Coast and at least the pretence of competition.

Who knows though, it could the explosive final quarter as is often the way with Super Bowl.

Here's hoping.

19-7.

This Maye be the turning point

The much hyped replacement to take up the Tom Brady mantle (an impossible task) has delivered.

Drake Maye managed to find Mack Hollins from an incredible distance and give a sliver of hope to the Patriots.

19-7.

Less than 10 minutes left, don't miss the action!

Things are heating up and with less than 10 minutes you don't want to miss anything!

Check out how to watch all the action wherever you are here.

Another touchdown for Seattle!

A clean run to touchdown for Seattle!

An oversight from New England as their defence looks bare but an absolutely storming run from Seattle too.

This may be a bloodbath with five minutes left to go.

29-7.

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words

Patriots take a touchdown but no celebration

You'd almost not register that the Patriots have scored a touchdown based on the lack of recognition of this milestone between players and crowd.

They know it's over but at least they haven't finished on single digits.

Just over two minutes left.

29-13.

A near touchdown for Seattle

It looked like an incredible run from Seattle, with no defence to stop them...until it wasn't.

Evidence of holding was flagged by the ref and it was ultimately called out. New England will appreciate this, any more points will only add to the humiliation.

29-13.

Just over 30 seconds left

I'm sure if they panned to the stadium seats, you'd see the Patriots fans filing out in an orderly line.

Just need to officially crown Seattle and then it's done.

Seattle win!

And that's it: the Seahawks are triumphant!

From the first quarter it was clear that this was the team in control and little was done from the Patriots to refute that.

By no means was it the most interesting Super Bowl but you have to admire New England pushing on to the end in what became a battle of defensive play.

29-13.

Congrats to Seattle!

With four appearances at the Super Bowl, and only one previous win in 2014, the Seahawks have broken their decade-long dry spell with a victory tonight!

The superior team throughout, this was definitely the right result.

FINAL RESULT: 29-13.

Seattle accept their trophy

Sam Darnold is taking the stage and accepting the iconic trophy after riding the highs and lows of professional American Football.

Truly a comeback for this man, this will surely be the story of the tournament.

Confetti rains down as the team cheers the fans.

Seattle Seahawks: the clear winners of Super Bowl LX

That's all folks!

Well, thanks once more for joining me for the 60th Super Bowl!

Whether you were here for the halftime show and vibes (guilty) or here for the sporting action (hopefully you weren't too disappointed), these days are always events and this one was no different.

I hope you had fun, I certainly did! I've been Dan, and I'll see you again soon.

While Canada doesn't have an NFL team (yet), the Seahawks of Seattle and Patriots of Foxboro, New England are about as close you can get. The two northern franchises play off for the Vince Lombardi Trophy on Sunday and we're explaining the different ways you can watch Super Bowl 2026 in Canada.

Canadians and the rest of the world have seen this show play out before in 2014, of course, when then Brady/Belichick era Patriots staged a fourth quarter heist to overcome the Seahawks 28-24. Seattle are the favorites this time around, however, with Sam Darnold and Drake Maye trying to cap their respective outstanding seasons with football's biggest prize.

Although there are no Canadians set to star in this Sunday's clash, the Seahawks roster that romped to victory over the Denver Broncos at Super Bowl XLVIII featured two: punter Jon Ryan and tight end Luke Willson.

Trying to discover your Super Bowl 2026 TV channels and streaming options north of the border when the action gets started at 6:30 p.m. ET / 3:30 p.m. PT on Sunday, February 8? Keep reading to see where to watch Seahawks vs Patriots, whether you're a Canada native or are just travelling to the Great White North this weekend.

Can I watch Super Bowl 2026 for free in Canada?

If you already get TSN or CTV (or subscribe to DAZN), then Super Bowl 2026 will be ready for you to watch this Sunday without paying an extra cent.

However, there are no official free streams in Canada.

That seems particularly surprising, considering that broadcasters and streamers in many other football-loving countries around the world are showing the 2026 Super Bowl absolutely FREE:

• U.K. — Channel 5
• Australia — 7plus
• New Zealand —TVNZ+
• Ireland — Virgin Media Play
• U.S. — YouTube TV (free 21-day trial)

🇨🇦 Travelling to Canada from abroad? Use NordVPN to watch your local free stream from anywhere – save 70% for Super Bowl.

How to watch Super Bowl 2026 in Canada

So while no free streaming options are available, there are still several paid services available to NFL fans in Canada to watch Super Bowl 2026:

🍁 DAZN: The specialist sports streaming service includes the NFL Game Pass by default in Canada, so anybody with a DAZN subscription can watch. The standard starting monthly price of an annual subscription is $24.99, but you can currently get your first two months for as little as $9.99/month.

🍁 TSN 1: If you already get TSN through your TV package, you're ready to watch on TV or online at TSN.ca or the TSN app. Otherwise, you can get access to everything the network has to offer with its TSN+ streaming platform, costing $8/month or $80/year.

🍁 CTV: Super Bowl 2026 will also be shown on CTV (on TV or on its website), so you can watch there if you have access.

🍁 Fubo: There's no free trial, but you can watch all NFL games with the Sports Pro Monthly plan for CA$34.99 monthly ($20 off your first month, usually CA$54.99).

Watch your FREE Super Bowl 2026 stream from anywhere

If you're in Canada now and want to watch the free Super Bowl 2026 live stream you would have been able to enjoy in your home country, you can still do so thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network).

The software can make your devices appear to be back in your home country regardless of where you are, making it ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN — we explain why in our NordVPN review.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in Canada and want to view a U.K. or Australian service, you'd select 'United Kingdom' or 'Australia' from the server list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Channel 5, 7plus or another streaming service and watch your regular Super Bowl 2026 live stream when in Canada.

We’re hours away from the biggest televised sporting event of the year, and while snacks, drinks and seating arrangements are on the minds of viewers everywhere, plenty of people overlook their TV — the portal to all of the action.

Even as a TV-reviewer, I get the impulse not to tinker with your TV. But the truth is, most people are just a few simple steps away from improving their TV’s picture by a considerable margin.

Whether you’re planning to stream the Super Bowl for free or you’re angling to watch the Super Bowl in 4K on Peacock or YouTube TV, here are five settings to tweak for a better-looking broadcast. (And, if you’re worried about tinkering with your TV, fear not: These changes are just as easy to undo as they are to make.)

1. If it’s still enabled, turn off Eco mode

Most TVs arrive with at least one energy-saving setting enabled by default. You can read all about these settings in our Eco mode explainer, but here's the gist: Energy-saving picture modes (or eco-friendly brightness settings) dynamically adjust a TV's brightness in order to reduce energy consumption.

This process is managed by a light sensor on the TV that adjusts the backlight (or OLED pixel brightness) in real time. In my experience, this picture mode or setting is, more often than not, too aggressive in its approach. As a result, this can lead to a dull, dim picture — especially in well-lit rooms.

To disable this setting, check your TV's settings menu for options like Power and Energy or Energy Saving. Some TV brands stick their brightness toggle in the TV's Brightness menu, while others relegate this setting to a General Settings menu.

As mentioned, there’s a possibility that your TV’s primary energy-saving step has been folded into an entire picture mode. I recommend using a different mode — and it’s probably not the mode you’d expect.

2. Choose a better picture mode than Sports or Vivid

Look, I know the word “sports” is right there in the name of the Sports picture mode, but in my twelve years of testing and reviewing TVs, I can’t recall a single TV whose Sports mode was worth using.

This mode might look fine if you’re squinting at it from across a dark pub or sports bar, but you can almost certainly achieve a better-tuned picture by avoiding its bluish, highly-saturated look. The same can be said for Vivid or Dynamic, two picture modes to avoid on every TV.

Instead of setting your TV to Sports and walking away, start with a more accurate picture mode (like Cinema, Movie, Filmmaker, Theater, or even Standard) and make finer adjustments to your viewing preferences. These modes are closer to reference accuracy, which means they allow your TV to more closely replicate the colors of everyday life.

When it comes to making those finer adjustments, a good place to start is with your TV’s backlight. Believe it or not, your TV could be holding itself back.

3. Crank up the backlight

Unless you’re trying to go easy on your eyes, increasing your TV’s brightness will go a long way towards improving the picture. On most LED TVs, this setting will be called Backlight, but depending on the type of LED TV, you should also check that Local Dimming is set to High and Peak Brightness is set to High, too.

OLED TVs don’t rely on LED-based backlights. For these sets, the overall brightness of the picture can be adjusted via the OLED Pixel Brightness and/or Peak Brightness setting.

4. Double-check the color temperature

If you’ve already switched into a more-accurate picture mode, you might not need to change your TV’s color temperature setting. However, it’s worth double-checking.

While some people favor a cooler-looking picture for sports, I recommend using Warm or Low for a more accurate presentation. If you’ve been using a cooler color temperature setting regularly, it might take a few moments to adjust to a warmer setting, but in my experience, it makes for a more pleasing picture in the long term.

5. Reduce (or disable) motion-smoothing

Motion-smoothing settings might not be ideal for filmic content shot at 24fps, but football is an entirely different story. Sports are typically broadcast at 60fps, which means there’s some wiggle room for motion-smoothing settings to potentially improve your viewing experience.

If you’re lucky enough to own a TV whose motion enhancements are granular and not just an on/off toggle, I recommend starting with a light touch. Despite the fast-paced nature of football, the players’ movement can start to look a little rubbery if you crank up motion interpolation too high.

Most TVs keep these settings within the Picture menu, sometimes tucked away in a submenu marked Clarity. As mentioned, depending on the make and model, your TV might have several motion-related options.

On Samsung TVs, for example, you’ll find both Blur Reduction and Judder Reduction. Blue Reduction smooths out fast-moving objects by reducing the smearing effect that often comes with them. This is relevant for sports.

Judder Reduction, on the other hand, is less relevant for 60Hz broadcasts, so I wouldn’t recommend using it. (For what it’s worth, I also wouldn’t enable Judder Reduction for movies and shows.)

I’m confident that making these simple changes to your TV’s settings will result in a better picture, regardless of your TV’s capabilities. Don’t fumble the ball this Sunday.

The latest addition in ESPN’s acclaimed 30 for 30 series, ‘The Philly Special’ recalls how one play helped the Philadelphia Eagles secure a shocking 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots at Super Bowl LII and secure the first title in the history of the franchise. It’s a real-life Rocky story that has been immortalized on t-shirts, murals, tattoos, and even a statue outside Lincoln Financial Field.

Here's how to watch ESPN's 30 for 30 'The Philly Special' from anywhere with a VPN.

The 2018 Super Bowl remains one of the most spectacular in recent memory as a team of underdogs overcame one of the greatest dynasties in NFL history to claim the Vince Lombardi Trophy. But it is one moment in particular that makes the story even more fascinating. Towards the end of the second quarter, the Eagles perfectly executed a trick play that has transcended football and become part of Philadelphia’s cultural identity.

The play itself saw quarterback Nick Foles move up behind his offensive line and Jason Kelce snap the ball directly to running back Corey Clement. Clement then pitched the ball to Trey Burton, who passed it to a wide-open Foles for a touchdown. It’s since been utilized by teams across America, but this one instance lives long in the memory.

In the feature, that quartet of players recall the play and provide a unique insight into how it materialized. Doug Pederson, the head coach who called the Philly Special, also recounts the moment it was executed and became part of Philly folklore.

Read on to see how you can watch ESPN's 30 for 30 'The Philly Special' from anywhere.

Seattle put in a historic defensive performance as they frustrated the New England attack and didn't allow young Drake Maye any time throughout the game.

You can watch Patriots vs Seahawks REPLAYS at Super Bowl 2026 online from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

The Seahawks entered as clear favorites, and it was a magical night not only for their defense but also for placekicker Jason Myers, who scored five field goals. That set a Super Bowl record, surpassing Jake Elliott’s four for the Philadelphia Eagles last season.

For the Patriots, it was a desperate outing, with much of the team overwhelmed by the occasion. Quarterback Drake Maye, in particular, struggled to handle the Seahawks’ relentless blitzing defense.

How to watch Super Bowl 2026 online in the U.S.

The rights to show this year's Super Bowl LX in the U.S. have fallen to NBC. So if you have it available through your antenna or cable plan, you're good to go.

Super Bowl tip: Get Peacock Premium free with Walmart+ 30-day free trial.

Cord-cutters can also opt for a service like Sling TV. The Sling Blue package costs from $45.99/month and gives you access to more than 30 channels including NBC (in select markets only).

YouTube TV is a more comprehensive option, offering all three NBC channels on its Base Plan. It costs from $82.99/month (with a $23 discount on each of your first two months), after you've given it a try with its 21-day FREE trial.

A love letter to Bill Walsh-era Gold Rush dynasty, to Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Ronnie Lott and Steve Young, four-part prestige docuseries "Rise of the 49ers" charts the club's spectacular ascent through the 80s and 90s. Before The Catch they were perennial also-rans. They'd go on to become not just an all-time great sporting dynasty, but a cultural touchstone that galvanized San Francisco — and captured hearts and minds across the globe.

Here's how to watch "Rise of the 49ers" from anywhere with a VPN.

People love a winner, but the 49ers weren't like the widely reviled Cowboys, Patriots or Chiefs. Despite all of their successes, the Niners still managed to retain their charm. Their style was a huge part of that. It was Walsh who masterminded the bold, creative West Coast offense, every ounce as entertaining as it was effective, yet archive footage reveals a coach who was wracked with self-doubt.

Young's emergence in 1987 must have felt like the last thing he'd needed. Montana was the man, but all of a sudden, while he was still in his prime, it became abundantly clear that his backup was a Super Bowl winner and Hall of Famer in-waiting too. The quarterback controversy would come close to tearing the team apart.

San Fran fans had hoped to see the 49ers clinch that long-awaited sixth title on home turf at the 2026 Super Bowl, but this is as good as consolation prizes get. If Tom Brady seems a strange choice as the docuseries' narrator and effective anchor, it's worth noting that, despite being passed up for Giovanni Carmazzi in the 2000 NFL Draft, he remains a lifelong 49ers fanatic, and it'll be fascinating to see his exchanges with his childhood heroes.

Read on to see how you can watch "Rise of the 49ers" from anywhere.

How to watch 'Rise of the 49ers’ in the U.S.

The NFL's highest-scoring offense and meanest defense meet tonight in an NFC Championship Game that will produce a clear Super Bowl favorite. The Seahawks have home advantage and an extra day of rest, but Seattle has two major problems: key running back Zach Charbonnet is injured, and Los Angeles defensive coordinator Chris Shula is Sam Darnold's kryptonite.

Meanwhile, Matthew Stafford has two major weapons in Puka Nucua and Davante Adam’s. You can watch the NFC Championship Game 2026 live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for FREE.

The NFC West rivals served up a pair of thrillers during the regular season. The Rams won 21-19 in Week 11, and the Seahawks got their revenge in Week 16. They overturned a 14-30 deficit in the fourth quarter, and went on to win 38-37 in overtime. In both instances, the home team came out on top. However, while Matthew Stafford threw for 457 yards and three touchdowns in the latter despite Davante Adams missing out, Darnold threw four interceptions in the former.

The Seahawks quarterback was behind a league-worst 20 turnovers in the regular season, and in his two encounters with the Rams this campaign, he's been picked off six times. It gets worse too. He was sacked an NFL playoff record nine times by the Rams defense at the Wildcard Round stage 12 months ago, when he was a Viking. And this time around, he's carrying an oblique issue that could limit his movement and delivery.

For the Seahawks to progress, Darnold will almost certainly need to lean heavily on the running game, but Charbonnet's season-ending ACL injury raises further complications. Although Kenneth Walker went off for 116 yards and three scores last weekend, Charbonnet has been their go-to guy in the red zone all year. Then again, the Seahawks always seem to make the Super Bowl whenever a new pope is elected.

Here's how to watch Rams vs Seahawks from anywhere in the world, and potentially for free.

It is exactly 10 years and one day since the New England Patriots and the Denver Broncos last met in the NFL playoffs, with Peyton Manning getting the better of Tom Brady on that occasion. They clash in the AFC Championship Game again today, with a place at Super Bowl LX up for grabs.

You can watch Patriots vs Broncos online from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

Times have been tough at the Gillette Stadium since the Pats' last Super Bowl win in 2018 and the end of the Brady–Belichick era. But the good times seems to be back under Mike Vrabel and 23-year-old star QB Drake Maye. They've followed up a 14-3 regular season with comfortable postseason wins over the Chargers and Texans? Can the Patriots sew up the conference at the Mile High Stadium today?

Despite coming into the postseason as no. 1 seeds, the Broncos made heavy weather of defeating the Bills last weekend. A hot Buffalo comeback took the game to overtime, before Wil Lutz's field goal sealed a first Denver playoffs win since their Super Bowl victory a decade ago.

As two of the AFC's most successful franchises go head-to-head today, read on as we explain how to watch Patriots vs Broncos online, on TV and from anywhere, including free options.

The NFL Divisional Round concludes today, with the Texans vs Patriots kicking off Sunday's action. Neither C.J. Stroud nor Drake Maye covered themselves in glory in the first round, throwing a pair of interceptions and a trio of turnovers respectively. Although Houston's run game ranks a lowly 30th in the league, of late New England's rush defense has been the NFL's worst by far. Maye, meanwhile, is up against the meanest defense in the league.

You can watch NFL Divisional Round live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for FREE.

The Rams vs Bears wraps up the Divisional Round, which is fitting because both teams left things late last weekend. Having masterminded a spectacular comeback from 18 points down against the Packers, Caleb Williams was arguably the star of the first round, and he'll fancy his chances against this Los Angeles defense. The Rams were enormous favorites for their clash with the Panthers, but if it wasn't for the brilliance of Matthew Stafford they'd be out already.

After an opening round that featured 12 fourth-quarter lead changes — that's an NFL playoff record, not just a playoff round record — No.1 seeds Seattle and Denver entered the fray yesterday, perhaps even with a small degree of trepidation. After all, four of last weekend's six games were decided by four points or less.

Such was the parity this season that neither the Seahawks nor the Broncos were clear top dogs, and they needn't have looked any further than the 2025/26 College Football Playoffs for proof of what a poisoned chalice a first-round bye can be. It was a case of rust rather than rest for three of the top four seeds, who fell at the first hurdle.

However, the Broncos tormented Josh Allen en route to edging a nailbiter 33-30 in OT. Bo Nix, however, broke his ankle on one of the last plays of the game, which means that backup QB Jarrett Stidham will start next weekend's AFC championship game. Kenneth Walker III, meanwhile, scored three TDs as the Seahawks shredded the injury-hit 49ers. 41-6 was the final score.

One of the most head-scratching, unpredictable NFL campaigns in living memory has produced a Wildcard Round slate worthy of the name. Five of the 14 teams in the playoffs suffered at least 11 defeats last season, and three went from worst to first in their respective divisions — both NFL records.

You can watch NFL Wildcard Round live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for FREE.

The tie of the round is the Packers vs Bears, the arch-rivals' third encounter in five weeks. Green Bay won a one-possession thriller in Week 14 and hasn't tasted victory since, losing four in a row, while Chicago won a one-possession thriller in Week 16 and hasn't tasted victory since, losing two straight. Jordan Love is back for the Packers, and it's worth noting that this will be Caleb Williams' first taste of the playoffs.

The 49ers vs Eagles is a clash of the last two NFC champions and the last two NFL Offensive Player of the Year winners, in Christian McCaffrey and Saquon Barkley. Reigning champions Philadelphia should have the edge, thanks to San Fran's league-worst pass rush, which recorded a measly 20 sacks during the regular season.

The Bills vs Jaguars should be a tasty affair, with all the pressure on Josh Allen to finally go all the way in the absence of the Chiefs and Bengals. However, he's never won a playoff game on the road, and Jacksonville is riding an eight-game winning streak.

The Texans have gone one better with nine wins in a row, and they're a dark horse for the title thanks to a defense that's the envy of every team in the league. Aaron Rodgers may have more playoff wins to his name than every other quarterback in the AFC playoff field combined, but this could be curtains once and for all for the future Hall of Famer.

Having been an annual fixture on the NFL schedule since 2020, Christmas Day matches have quickly become a tradition as entrenched as eating turkey and watching "A Christmas Story".

You can watch NFL Christmas Day 2025 live streams from anywhere with a VPN.

We may now be used to watching football on December 25, but the last couple of years have seen a slight twist to the tradition, with streaming colossus Netflix showing a double-header worldwide. The first game up this year on the streamer is Dallas Cowboys vs Washington Commanders, followed by Detroit Lions vs Minnesota Vikings.

The Cowboys-Commanders rivalry is one of the most storied in the sport's history and, although neither side can progress to the postseason, both franchises will be desperate for the win. Last time they met was one for the ages, with a pile-on of points in the last few minutes of the game and the Cowboys ultimately claiming bragging rights on Commanders turf.

Although the Lions are the only one of the quartet that still have a sniff of making the playoffs, their loss at Ford Field to the Steelers last week hasn't helped their chances. They need to defy their lousy historical record against the Vikings and then hope a Christmas miracle helps the Ravens beat the Packers on Saturday.

Here's how to watch NFL Christmas Day Netflix 2025 from anywhere in the world (as well as details on December 25's third and final matchup).

After the Dallas Cowboys’ lost to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, their playoff odds dropped to around 1%, according to most postseason projections. That number sparked a natural question: If the Cowboys aren’t officially eliminated, what would actually need to happen for them to make the NFL Playoffs?

I did what I always do when I'm stumped — ask ChatGPT. This is the kind of problem AI is surprisingly good at solving. Because all predictions and opinions aside, playoff races are about conditional logic. Who has to win, who has to lose and how tiebreakers come into play. So I asked ChatGPT to map out the exact scenario keeping Dallas technically alive.

ChatGPT: What needs to happen for Cowboys to make the playoffs

Late-season playoff math is messy. It involves multiple teams, overlapping schedules, division standings, conference records and tiebreaker rules. It's a mashup that goes beyond my human logic, but I know AI tools like ChatGPT excel at organizing those moving parts into clear, step-by-step outcomes. And, they are not predicting what will happen, chatbots are explaining what could still happen.

Here’s the path it laid out for the Cowboys:

• Step 1: The Cowboys have to win out. There’s no flexibility here. Dallas must win every remaining regular-season game. One more loss would eliminate them immediately. The Cowboys face a very tough opponent this Sunday agains the 10-4 Chargers, but they should be able to take care of the Commanders and Giants in the final two games.
• Step 2: The NFC East needs late-season chaos. Dallas’ clearest remaining path still runs through the division. For that door to open, the Eagles would need to lose multiple games down the stretch. The Eagles could lose to the Bills on Dec. 26, but it's not likely that they'd lose twice to the Commanders before and after that game. If Philadelphia closes strong, the Cowboys are out regardless of what they do.
• Step 3: The wild-card route is even narrower. If the division doesn’t break their way, the Cowboys would need help across the NFC. Multiple teams currently ahead of them in the wild-card race would have to lose games they’re favored to win — not just once, but repeatedly.

Even then, Dallas would still need tiebreakers to fall in its favor, including conference record and head-to-head results.

So why isn’t the number zero?

The number isn't zero because every step above is technically possible. Playoff probability models don’t factor in how realistic a scenario feels, just whether it is still exists. This means that as long as Dallas can win out and enough teams stumble, the Cowboys remain mathematically alive.

That’s how you end up with a 1% chance instead of outright elimination.

Bottom line

The Cowboys are pretty much eliminated at this point, but there's a very, very small chance they could make it into the NFL Playoffs. No, asking ChatGPT doesn’t make the Cowboys’ path more likely, but it does make what they have to do, clearer. The playoff door is still open, but barely, and it requires a near-perfect finish.

TL;DR: The Cowboys are still alive, but there’s no margin for error left.

Despite doing everything they can to fumble the AFC North, the Steelers are inexplicably leading the division once again. While it doesn't feel that way right now, at some point their luck will run out. As it goes, they're up against the Bills this Sunday in a really important game for both franchises, and Pittsburgh's path to victory couldn't be clearer — run the ball at every opportunity.

Here's how to watch Bills vs Steelers online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

The Bills aren't what they used to be, and one of the main reasons why is their rush defense, which ranks as the worst in the NFL for touchdowns allowed (17) and the third-worst for yardage (148.9 yards per game). In five of their 11 games, they've given up at least 180 yards on the ground.

Unfortunately for Mike Tomlin, the Steelers' ground offense hasn't been so hot either. It ranks 27th for rushing yards (97.1 yards per game) and 26th for rushing touchdowns (seven), with their No.1 running back Jaylen Warren accounting for just three TDs all season. But with Aaron Rodgers' playing through a wrist issue and DK Metcalf hampered by an ankle injury, this Bills clash couldn't have come at a better time.

Josh Allen can still do his Superman thing, but the Bills have grown increasingly reliant on it. When Allen or James Cook aren't going off, Sean McDermott doesn't appear to have a Plan B, let alone a Plan A, or the personnel to lighten their load. The AFC East title is as good as gone, but for the timebeing Buffalo still control their own fate.

The Steelers, meanwhile, are a nose in front of the Ravens at the top of the AFC North, and the Bengals could yet catch them both. If they don't win the division, they won't have the faintest hope of reaching the playoffs.

Read on to find out how you can watch the Bills vs Steelers live in the NFL, no matter where you are in the world.

Bears vs Eagles promises to be a brilliant contest and one you definitely won’t want to miss. Both teams sit atop their divisions with identical 8–3 records as we head into Week 13 of the NFL season.

Despite a long injury list, the Bears made it eight wins from their last nine, edging the Steelers 31–28 at the weekend. However, they know the Eagles are the real litmus test. Chicago hasn’t beaten Philadelphia since 2011, and the defending Super Bowl champions will be even more dangerous coming off their recent loss to the Cowboys.

The traditional Thanksgiving Day triple-header is especially enticing this year, because five of the six teams' NFL playoff hopes are precariously balanced — and in the case of the Packers and Lions, intertwined. The Packers (7-3-1) and Ravens (6-5) are in the picture but only just, while the Lions (7-4) and Chiefs (6-5) are hammering at the door, and the Cowboys (5-5) have suddenly jolted into life with their season on the line.

You can watch NFL Thanksgiving Games 2025 live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for FREE.

First up is an all-NFC North clash between the Packers and Lions. A Detroit win would see them enter the wildcard frame at Green Bay's expense, while a defeat would be hugely damaging. Jordan Love's passing game has completely deserted him of late, but the Micah Parsons-led pass rush has helped bail the offense out. However, it's Jahmyr Gibbs, not Jared Goff, who's been the Lions' shining light this season, with the running back coming off a game-winning 264-yard, three-touchdown performance.

It's over to the Chiefs and Cowboys next, each team having pulled off a spectacular comeback at the weekend. Down 20-9 to the Colts in the fourth quarter following two straight defeats, KC fans were ready to accept their playoff hopes were as good as gone before a heroic defensive effort gave Patrick Mahomes full ownership of the ball. The Cowboys were 21-0 down to the Eagles at the interval, only for the defense to show up and George Pickens to run amok after the break. Having been dead and buried at the start of the month, they're now playing like legitimate contenders.

The Thanksgiving slate concludes with an all-AFC North affair, with the Bengals up against the Ravens. Lamar Jackson still doesn't look right, but Baltimore have reeled off five straight wins behind a steadily improving defense. Having been 1-5 and doomed barely a month ago, they're now tied for first in the division. The Bengals, meanwhile, can't even lose with dignity. They opted against risking the fit-again Joe Burrow at the weekend, only for Joe Flacco to fumble the game and get banged-up in the process. 3-8 is a whole sight bleaker than 4-7.

Well, football fans, rejoice: Right now, you can get NFL Sunday Ticket for a limited time for just $48. That's 68% off the $150 list price and over $100 in savings. If you're a returning user, you're not eligible for this price, but returning users can get NFL Sunday Ticket for just $62 right now, which is still pretty good. According to YouTube, these early Black Friday deals will disappear on Dec. 1, so you'll want to act fast.

Now, before you sign up, you'll need to decide whether you're signing up via YouTube or via YouTube TV. The price is the same either way, but if you're thinking of subscribing to YouTube TV or are already subscribed, then signing up through YouTube TV is the better move, since your Sunday Ticket games will then be available in the YouTube TV app. That's important when it comes to watching multiple games at once — with YouTube TV's multiview, you can stream up to four local and Sunday Ticket games on the same screen.

If you don't have YouTube TV yet, sign up right now for just $62.99 a month for your first five months. You'll need to use our link to get that deal — signing up through YouTube TV directly will only get you a promotional rate of $72.99 a month for your first three months. That's not bad, but our deal saves you an additional $70 over the course of five months.

Remember: This NFL Sunday Ticket promotion expires on Dec. 1, so you'll want to act fast if you're trying to score Sunday Ticket at its cheapest price yet. The YouTube TV promotion also has an expiration date — make sure to sign up before the end of the year.

Week 9 of the NFL concludes with Cardinals vs Cowboys as the Jonathan Gannon-led side look to pick up a crucial win at the AT&T Stadium.

Here's how to watch Cardinals vs Cowboys online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

The biggest question for coach Jonathan Gannon and the Cardinals is how they will perform at quarterback. With Kyler Murray still sidelined following his foot injury against the Titans, backup Jacoby Brissett is once again expected to start. Brissett will be hoping that his strong underlying metrics translate into a good offensive performance and help keep Arizona competitive.

For the Cowboys, the offense has been one of the league’s most potent units this season. Led by Dak Prescott through the air, and with wide receiver CeeDee Lamb as a major threat, they have the ability to stretch any defense. On the opposite side, improvements are still needed, but if everything clicks, it will be difficult to see past Brian Schottenheimer’s well-coordinated team.

Josh Allen always beats Patrick Mahomes in the regular season and Mahomes always beats Allen in the playoffs, but things feel different this time around. With neither team leading their division midway through the 2025 NFL season, this feels like a game that really matters, and when that's the case the Chiefs just have the beating of the Bills.

Here's how to watch Chiefs vs Bills online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

And that's not to mention that the Chiefs have looked far more convincing than the Bills this term. Since their shaky start they've won five of six, and both their offense and their defense worked like well-oiled machines in the 28–7 win over the Commanders last time out. Mahomes threw three touchdowns in the second half alone, with multiple receivers getting in on the act. One of those was Travis Kelce, who rediscovered his groove with 99 yards and a score.

The Bills' 40–9 beatdown of the Panthers was by far their best display of the season, but it's going to take more than that to forget the two-game skid that preceded their bye. Especially as it was James Cook who ran the show with 216 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Buffalo's pass rush was outstanding too, but Ed Oliver, the team's joint-leader for sacks has been ruled out of this Chiefs game with a biceps injury.

As good as they looked last weekend, the Bills have surrendered the second-most rushing yards per game in the NFL this season, and their receivers are still nowhere to be found.

Having served them with distinction for 18 years, Aaron Rodgers is about to face the Packers for the first — and perhaps only — time. The reunion, which has been two-and-a-half years in the making, is getting the SNF treatment, and how about this for a subplot? A Steelers victory would see Rodgers become only the fifth quarterback in NFL history to beat all 32 teams.

Here's how to watch Packers vs Steelers online from anywhere with a VPN.

What's more, both franchises are embarking on a pivotal stretch of the campaign. The caliber of the 4-2 Steelers' opponents has stepped up a notch, with the 6-1 Colts and 4-3 Chargers next, and it's no walk in the park for the 4-1-1 Packers either, with the 4-3 Panthers and 5-2 Eagles lying in wait.

If this is to be a happy reunion for Rodgers, he may have to earn it himself. The Packers defense has surrendered the second-fewest yards in the NFL this season, while the Steelers' defense has allowed the second-most passing yards. The (winless) Jets, Seahawks and Bengals have all scored more than 30 points against Pittsburgh. And Micah Parsons and Rashan Gary each rank in the top 10 for sacks.

Although Jordan Love's offense is yet to match expectations, the Packers still rank as the top team in the NFC. The NFL schedulers have, however, done their best to even out the odds. Not only do Pittsburgh have home advantage on 10 days' rest, but this is Green Bay's second consecutive road game. The first took place on the opposite side of the country, in Arizona.

A bye followed by a metting with Carolina would have looked like bliss to Buffalo at the start of the month, but the teams' fortunes have flipped in the intervening period. Back-to-back defeats mean the Bills are yet to win in October, while the Panthers have racked up three victories in a row for the first time in more than four years.

Here's how to watch Bills vs Panthers online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

The caveat, of course, is that those wins came against the hapless Dolphins, Cowboys and Jets, and two of them were one-score results. Regardless, the Panthers haven't had a winning record this far into a campaign since 2021, so Dave Canales' men will be feeling pretty good about themselves right now. Their biggest concern right now is Bryce Young's ankle.

Nobody really expects the Panthers to take down the Bills — and yet. One of Carolina's key strengths corresponds directly with Buffalo's most glaring weakness. The Panthers' physical offense ranks amongst the top three in the NFL for rushing yards per game, and Rico Dowdle is lining up against the league's second-worst rushing defense.

Incidentally, the Bills' ground offense is the best in the league thanks to Josh Allen and James Cook III. It's their passing game that hasn't clicked. Dalton Kincaid has chipped in with three scores and Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman with two apiece, but they've been struggling to gain territory through the air.

The Rams' clash with the Jaguars at Wembley is a very special London game, and not just because it's the last of the season. It's only the second London game — out of 42 — to feature two teams with winning records. It's a fascinating matchup too. Although Matthew Stafford leads the league in passing yards and only two teams are more vulnerable through the air than the Jags, Puka Nacua is injured.

Here's how to watch Rams vs Jaguars online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

Nacua is Stafford's favorite target by a distance. Only one NFL player has racked up more receiving yards than his 616, and Nacua's been pretty useful on the ground too, gaining 52 yards and a score off three attempts. While Davante Adams has more receiving touchdowns, he's barely made half of Nacua's yardage.

The timing will feel like a real kick in the teeth for Sean McVay, especially with the NFC West so finely balanced. The Jaguars have exceeded all expectations, but that secondary, which ranked dead-last in the NFL last season, remains the team's weak link. That's saying something, seeing as Jacksonville's O-line allowed seven sacks of Trevor Lawrence in the defeat to the Seahawks last weekend.

Byron Young and Jared Verse have combined for 10.5 sacks, putting the Rams in the top five for that metric. Lawrence would do well, therefore, to lean on Travis Etienne Jr., one of the league's top-10 RBs. One further interesting note is that the Jaguars lead the NFL in intercepted takeaways. In other words, if Stafford gets his range right he could slaughter them. If not, the equation could flip right on its head.

Hope lives and dies at Hard Rock Stadium in the first leg of tonight's MNF double-header in the NFL 2025. Both the Jets and Dolphins are winless so far, but 35 teams have made the playoffs after starting 1-3. The last to do so after a 0-4 start? The 1992 San Diego Chargers.

Here's how to watch Jets vs Dolphins online from anywhere with a VPN.

The Dolphins regressed last season and all signs suggest they've done so again, whereas the Jets harbor genuine optimism for the campaign. Justin Fields, who's cleared the concussion protocol, spearheads an exciting running attack — both teams, incidentally, ranked in the top 10 for rushing yards per game entering Week 4 — and two of their defeats came off last-gasp field goals.

The lingering fear for Miami fans is that tonight's game will illustrate just how far the Dolphins have fallen. In the air or on the ground, both defenses have been lousy, but the Dolphins' shortcomings have been exacerbated by a cornerback crisis, which Jets receiver Garrett Wilson should be primed to capitalize on. Storm Duck and Jason Marshall Jr. are out, while Ethan Bonner is questionable with a hamstring issue,

The Phins have, however, beaten the Jets in nine straight home meetings, with Tua Tagovailoa averaging 277.5 passing yards in his last two encounters with them, and their punchy display against the Bills last week saved Mike McDaniel's skin. Whether deployed as a back or as a receiver, De'Von Achane has been superb, which has perhaps only served to compound Tyreek Hill's frustrations.

Croke Park in Dublin hosts Ireland's first ever NFL game, though it's technically a home fixture for the Steelers, given the Rooney family's Irish heritage. But they've not made it easy on themselves. Nobody has a better International Series record than the Vikings, who have gone 4-0 in overseas games and built up a sizeable following across the pond in the process.

Here's how to watch Vikings vs Steelers online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.

The Steelers, meanwhile, lost their only previous overseas game — to the Vikings — 12 years ago. What they do have is Aaron Rodgers, the most internationally famous NFL player behind Travis Kelce. The 41-year-old, though, was sacked three times and threw a career-high three interceptions, including a pick-six, on his last international outing, and it was all down to Minnesota's defensive coordinator Brian Flores.

Late-stage Rodgers can't handle the blitz, and under Flores the tactic has been extremely fruitful for the Vikings. What's more concerning for the Steelers is the lack of a workable Plan B. Running backs Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell have been non-factors on the ground so far this season, although ironically, Warren has been Rodgers' most reliable passing target, ahead of DK Metcalf and Jonnu Smith.

Having last made consecutive starts in 2022, Carson Wentz is a huge unknown, but unlike Rodgers he can lean heavily on his teammates. Justin Jefferson is one of the NFL's best and most consistent receivers, while running back Jordan Mason is up against a defense that ranks amongst the worst in the league for missed tackles. Isaiah Rodgers and Andrew van Ginkel tuned up with two defensive touchdowns and two sacks respectively last weekend — and it was the latter that was Rodgers' chief tormentor a year ago.

The Bengals were shoddy last weekend, but for the first time in four years they won their opener and it was all thanks to new defensive coordinator Al Golden. The Jaguars' meanwhile, impressed in new head coach Liam Coen's maiden outing, though it was against arguably the NFL's worst team. You can watch your usual football stream from anywhere in the world with a VPN.

We stand to learn plenty from this clash at Paycor Stadium. Like should there be cause for concern over Joe Burrow putting up just 113 passing yards, or is it good that the Bengals essentially did everything they could to extend their losing run — including totaling -18 yards in the fourth quarter — and won anyway?

Travis Etienne Jr. had such a destructive game against the Panthers that the Jaguars immediately traded away Tank Bigsby. Etienne Jr. took the load off Trevor Lawrence by rushing for 143 yards on 16 carries, the most eye-catching of those a 71-yard tear that took the Jags from their own front door all the way to the red zone.

• NFL 2025: How to watch every game

NFL RedZone has long been touted by NFL fans as the best way to watch football. The seven-hour-long show, hosted by Scott Hanson each week of the NFL regular season, provides whip-around coverage of every play within the 20-yard line from every single Sunday afternoon NFL game. If you don't have NFL Sunday Ticket, it's essentially the only way to ensure you don't miss any of Sunday's big plays — and it used to be commercial-free.

However, this season, the NFL is officially adding commercials to RedZone permanently. Hanson broke the news during an episode of "The Pat McAfee Show" on Wednesday, Sept. 3, and while he vowed that no football would be sacrificed, eyebrows and hackles were immediately raised.

Now that week 1 of NFL RedZone has come and gone, though, we officially know just how intrusive the NFL RedZone commercials were to the seven-hour telecast, and the answer seems to be ... it could be a lot worse. It turned out that the NFL only added four, 15-second-long commercials in a split-screen, meaning that the football was indeed uninterrupted, even if it was no longer distraction-free.

Even NFL fans weren't universally outraged about the change. To be clear: Nobody wants the commercials. But, at least for now, it seems some fans aren't totally up in arms about it.

"The commercials on NFL Redzone were less intrusive than I expected," said Marvelo Duran on Bluesky. "But it's only the first week of 18," they quickly caveated.

The commercials on NFL Redzone were less intrusive than I expected, but it's only the first week of 18.

— @guyincognito303.bsky.social (@guyincognito303.bsky.social.bsky.social) 2025-09-08T16:53:17.034Z

Bluesky user Brad Meyer also similarly felt the commercials were "not that disruptive," and user No Agenda Media said that the commercials hadn't ruined the RedZone "at all."

Not everyone on Bluesky was loving the new RedZone feature. Some users declared it just a way to get people into sports gambling, while others (amusingly) pointed out that RedZone never had commercials during the Biden administration. But one user went as far as to declare the show "dead," given that Hanson could no longer open the show with the phrase "Seven hours of not-commercial-free football starts now!"

NFL RedZone is dead. Long live “Seven hours of not-commercial-free football starts now!”SiriusXM is a blessing. Currently listening to the Sunday Drive, which does have commercials, and I can get every NFL game audio there!

— @chrisofdoom.bsky.social (@chrisofdoom.bsky.social.bsky.social) 2025-09-08T16:53:17.580Z

On Threads, the outrage was also relatively muted, though at least one user did agree that the magic of RedZone was over. "R.I.P @nfl Red Zone," said Threads user djgovi. "We had a good commercial free run for a while, but greed finally got em. Nothing but love for @scotthanson1."

Now, if you're someone who reads this and goes, "I can live with one minute of commercials," there's a new way to get NFL RedZone. Right now, you can sign up for ESPN Unlimited and NFL Plus Premium for $39.99 a month, which gives you access to the new ESPN Unlimited streaming service and NFL Plus Premium, the latter of which will give you access to NFL Network and NFL RedZone. If you act fast, you can even get 12 months of Disney Plus (with ads) and Hulu (with ads) thrown in for free.

However, if you'd rather avoid ads altogether, there is still a way. As Bluesky user Chrisofdoom pointed out, SiriusXM lets you listen to every NFL game from all 32 NFL teams without commercials.

Of course, as SiriusXM is satellite radio, you won't get to watch any of the football. Ultimately, you have to decide whether it's more important to watch the plays or avoid commercials. But if ditching ads is your top priority, SiriusXM will let you do just that. Right now, you can get three months of SiriusXM for just $1.

It's only week 1 of the NFL and already we're seeing the first International Series game of the year, as the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers head to the Neo Química Arena in São Paulo, Brazil. You can watch your usual football stream from anywhere in the world with a VPN.

It's been more than six months since the Chiefs' dreams of a historic Super Bowl three-peat were dashed in New Orleans at the hands of the Eagles, but the pain will still be real for Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and co. The quest for a fourth championship ring in seven years starts on Friday, and you can bet that Brett Veach's men will want to set down a marker first up.

After a horrible 2023, the Chargers bounced back to an impressive 11-6 record and a mere 301 conceded points last year. Their usually-watertight defence didn't prevent a surprise Wild Card loss to the Houston Texans, however, and it will be Jim Harbaugh's duty to build on that solid base for another postseason push this time around. They may be 0-6 against the Chiefs in their last few games, but clashes between these two tend to be close.

Read on to find out how you can watch the Chiefs and Chargers go at it in Brazil live in the NFL, no matter where you are in the world.

How to watch Chiefs vs Chargers from anywhere with a VPN

Away from home and blocked from watching Chiefs vs Chargers?

You can still watch your usual NFL live streams thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software makes your devices appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are, making it ideal for football fans away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:

It's really easy to use a VPN to watch Chiefs vs Chargers.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you want to watch your YouTube stream of Chiefs vs Chargers, choose 'United States' from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to YouTube and watch the Chiefs vs Chargers game live and for free.

ESPN's streaming service, confusingly called ESPN, is coming at just the right time for football fans. The Worldwide Leader in Sports has always been associated with the NFL, thanks to its Monday Night Football broadcast. But back in August, ESPN and the NFL struck a monumental deal that gives ESPN the NFL Network and rights to the NFL RedZone brand name.

That deal won't go into effect this season, most likely, as it still has to pass through U.S. regulatory processes. But that's not stopping ESPN and the NFL from teaming up this season, including offering ESPN subscribers access to RedZone without needing a cable provider or live TV streaming service.

Right now, you can sign up for ESPN Unlimited and NFL Plus Premium for $39.99 a month. This bundle gives you access to ESPN, which is a streaming service accessed through a newly revamped ESPN app that offers all of ESPN's linear TV networks and ESPN Plus content all in one place. It also gives you NFL Plus Premium, an upgraded version of the NFL's own niche streaming service that offers NFL RedZone, NFL Network, game replays and a lot more NFL content.

Normally, that's all your $40 a month would get you. But for a limited time, you can sign up for Disney Plus (with ads), Hulu (with ads), ESPN and NFL Plus Premium for that same $39.99 a month. That gives you everything I already laid out, plus two of the best streaming services we've tested — including Star Wars, MCU movies and shows, Hulu originals and more — all for the same price as before. Yes, that means Disney Plus and Hulu for free, no catch.

OK, there are a few small caveats. First, the promotional price only lasts for 12 months, but getting Disney Plus and Hulu free for an entire year is nothing to turn up your nose at. Second, you have to access all these various streaming services on their own dedicated apps, though next year Hulu will merge with the Disney Plus app.

Finally, you'll have to suffer through ads on Disney Plus, Hulu and ESPN Unlimited — and NFL RedZone.

ESPN adds RedZone — and RedZone's new ads

When I wrote about the rumored ESPN and NFL deal back in July, I said that ESPN should make RedZone a loss leader, using it to draw in new subscribers.

Instead, ESPN didn't do that. In fact, they did the opposite of that. Sure, they used Disney Plus and Hulu as loss leaders instead, and yes, you can now get NFL Network and NFL RedZone to your ESPN Unlimited subscription. But it still costs the typical $10 extra that RedZone costs on cable and cable alternatives, and now, the NFL is adding commercials to RedZone, meaning you're getting a lesser product for the same cost.

Yes, you're reading that right. Despite outrage from fans that earned an apology from RedZone's host, Scott Hanson, the NFL is doubling down on its controversial move from last year, and permanently adding advertisements to the NFL RedZone broadcasts going forward.

Hanson revealed the bad news during an episode of "The Pat McAfee Show" on ESPN yesterday (Sept. 3), and while he vowed that no football would be sacrificed in ESPN and the NFL's thirst for ad dollars, it seems unlikely that his promise made will be a promise kept.

One of the best smart speakers is getting a glow up, just in time for football season. Amazon has a new limited edition version of its Echo Pop smart home speakers that features the logos of NFL teams. The new version of the compact smart speakers has designs for all 32 teams in the league.

Amazon describes the design as "retro-inspired" with the full name of the teams and their logos on the front of the speaker. The speaker comes with a faceplate and a related colorful sleeve.

Picking up one will cost you $59.99, which is a bit more expensive than the normal $39.99 for the standard Echo Pop.

Amazon's Echo Pop speakers feature the company's Alexa, which enables you to control music or some smart home devices like turning on compatible smart homes. You can also ask Alexa for updates on your team to get things like scores, news or schedules.

The new Echo Pop is also getting early access to Alexa+, an advanced iteration of the voice assistant. It's been upgraded to offer more natural and intuitive interactions.

If you're already signed up for Alex+ early access you can use the new features. If you're curious about the upgraded Alexa you can request early access here.

According to Amazon, you can use this version of Alexa to do things like find and book game tickets, shop for team gear or get post-game analysis and more.

Amazon released a similar version last fall which featured only the logo for the various NFL teams. It looks like that version has been replaced by this new design with the name and logo.

That's not all...

If that isn't enough team gear from Amazon, the company has two other devices featuring logos from your favorite squad.

For those who have an Echo Dot, you can pick up a new NFL helmet stand. The helmet goes over the speaker and Amazon claims it won't affect how the speaker functions. The helmet stand will set you back $59.99 on Amazon.

Lastly, you can spruce up your Ring Doorbell with a new NFL-themed faceplate. Like the Dot and Pop, the faceplate is available for all 32 teams.

The faceplate goes over the bottom half of the doorbell with repeating tiny versions of the team's logo. You can pick one up for $24.99 on Amazon.

Two playoff spots and virtually the entire seeding order are going all the way to the wire in Week 18, the final stage of the regular season. Ravens vs Steelers is a straight-up eliminator, and the same may be true of Panthers vs Buccaneers. No.1 seeding, meanwhile, currently belongs to the Broncos and Seahawks, but the Patriots and Jaguars could yet leapfrog Denver, and Seattle has the run the gauntlet of an NFC West title decider with the red-hot 49ers.

You can watch NFL 2025 from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free.

The only absolute certainty going into the weekend is that the Packers will enter the postseason as the No.7 seed in the NFC. Everything else is fluid, which should make for a chaotic, confusing season finale. Let's start simple: the winner of the Baltimore vs Pittsburgh game will qualify for the playoffs as the AFC North champion, and the loser won't make the cut. If the Steelers miss out, this may end up being Aaron Rodgers' final ever game.

Saturday's Carolina vs Tampa Bay clash has all the hallmarks of an NFC South title decider, but if the Bucs win, both teams will have to wait almost 24 hours to learn their fate. That's because the Falcons play the Saints on Sunday, and should Carolina, Tampa Bay and Atlanta all finish with an 8-8 record, the Panthers will come out on top of the tie-breaker.

The game of the week, however, is Seahawks vs 49ers. Not only will it decide the NFC West — which is also sending the Rams into the playoffs — but the No.1 seed in the conference. Seattle has won six straight, but so has San Francisco, and the Niners have done so while averaging 35.7 points per game.

Check out all of the TV and streaming details below to find out how to watch NFL 2025 from anywhere, including free options.

Watch NFL live streams for FREE

Watch NFL 2025 from anywhere

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the football on your usual subscription?

You can still watch NFL 2025 live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are, making it ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN — we explain why in our NordVPN review.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Aussie service, you'd select Australia from the list.

How to watch NFL live streams in the U.S.

This season, NFL games are being televised on CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN, ESPN2, ABC and NFL Network, and live streamed on Twitch, Prime Video, Paramount Plus, Peacock, ESPN Select/ESPN Unlimited and Netflix.

Best ways to watch NFL without cable

The most cost-efficient way of tuning in is via one of the best cable TV alternatives.

Sling will give you the most bang for your buck, though it doesn't carry CBS. Sling Blue includes NFL Network, and local network affiliates from ABC, FOX and NBC (availability varies by market). Sling Orange carries ESPN and ESPN 2. Both plans start at $46/month, but you can combine them for $61/month (with the first month currently available at half price.

YouTube TV is comprehensive but more expensive. It carries ESPN, ESPN2 and NFL Network — as well as local CBS, FOX, NBC and ABC affiliates — in its base plan, which usually costs $82.99 per month. But right now you can get your first five months for $62.99 with our exclusive offer. RedZone costs an extra $10/month.

If you want just about every NFL game — even the out-of-market ones — you can add NFL Sunday Ticket to your subscription. It usually costs $378/year, but right now you can get Sunday Ticket for $276/year on top of YouTube TV.

Another great alternative is Fubo, which carries all the broadcast channels, plus ESPN, ESPN2 and NFL Network, on its Pro plan. It usually costs $84.99/month, but you'll get your first month for $54.99 after a 7-day FREE trial.

Fubo has a new Sports + News plan now too, which carries CBS, FOX, ABC, ESPN, ESPN2 and NFL Network, for $55.99/month.

Watch NFL via streaming services

Twitch and Prime Video are home to TNF from Weeks 2 to 17 (excluding Thanksgiving), plus the NFL Black Friday game. Prime Video will also show a Wildcard Round game. Prime Video costs $14.99/month or $139/year after a 30-day FREE trial, but Twitch is free.

CBS simulcasts its coverage of NFL games on Paramount Plus, which starts at $7.99/month or $59.99/year after a 7-day FREE trial.

FOX simulcasts its coverage of NFL games on FOX One, which costs $19.99/month or $199.99/year after a 7-day FREE trial.

NBC simulcasts its coverage of NFL games on Peacock, which will also show one Week 17 Saturday night game exclusively. A subscription costs $10.99/month or $109.99/year.

ESPN simulcasts its coverage of NFL games on ESPN Unlimited, which carries ESPN Select and all ESPN channels, and costs $29.99/month or $299.99/year, but for a limited time you can bundle it with Disney Plus and Hulu for $29.99/month for 12 months.

Finally, you will need a Netflix subscription to access this year's Christmas Day games during Week 17. The games will also air on a broadcast network in the competing teams’ cities.

One final option is NFL Plus, the NFL's own streaming service, which provides access to live local and primetime games. The catch is you can only watch on your phone or tablet. NFL Plus starts at $6.99 a month and also offers a Premium tier with access to NFL RedZone on your TV.

How to watch NFL live streams in the U.K.

Two NFL games are free-to-air in the U.K. each Sunday, courtesy of Channel 5, 5Action and the 5 streaming service. Select International games and the Super Bowl will also be shown on the free platform.

It's been a rough week for Cowboys fans, and it could get worse as they face the Super Bowl champions in Philadelphia under the lights in the NFL Kickoff Game – Cowboys vs Eagles. Here's how to watch Cowboys vs Eagles online from anywhere with a VPN – and potentially for free.

The Eagles mauled their NFC East rivals by an aggregate score of 75-13 last season. There's no denying that the Cowboys have lost their best player, but it's no coincidence that the Cowboys surrendered the fourth-most rushing yards in the NFL last season. Parsons was so effective that offenses simply cut him out of the equation by leaning on their running-backs.

Three-time All-Pro defensive tackle Kenny Clark should help to address that, while first-time head coach Brian Schottenheimer will be hoping that new defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus has managed to recalibrate the pass rush.

As we get closer to kickoff, the Cowboys are 8.5-point underdogs according to DraftKings, but they could surprise the Super Bowl champs.

Read on to find out how you can watch the Cowboys at Eagles live in the NFL, no matter where you are in the world.

Brits have embraced the NFL like few others outside North America, but aside from the London games they haven't received a great deal of love in return. But that changes in 2025/26.

While Monday Night Football has long been free-to-air, the extreme late-night slot has always dampened its appeal. It's been thrown away by Channel 5, but the free-to-air broadcaster has signficantly expanded its offering with a pair of primetime Sunday evening games instead.

Read on as we explain how to watch NFL in the U.K. — including FREE options.

How to watch NFL in the U.K. for free

Two NFL games will be on free-to-air in the U.K. each Sunday, courtesy of Channel 5, 5Action and the My5 streaming service.

One will air in the 6 p.m. BST / 1 p.m. ET slot on Channel 5, another in the 9 p.m. BST / 4 p.m. ET on 5Action.

Both games will be available to live stream for free on My5.

Select London games and the Super Bowl will also be shown on the platform making it the perfect place for U.K. viewers to stream NFL for free.

You might feel you need a playbook wrist to keep up with the NFL these days, or at least an expensive cable package, but you'll save youself a whole lot of hassle — and time and money — by subscribing to YouTube TV instead.

There are a few really good cord-cutting services out there, but none of them strikes the balance of fullness and affordability better than YouTube TV. Plus it offers one thing none of its competitors can: Sunday Ticket.

Read on as we explain how to watch NFL online with YouTube TV from anywhere in the world.

What NFL action can I watch on YouTube TV?

CBS, NBC, FOX, ESPN, ESPN2, ABC and NFL Network are the channels you need in order to watch the NFL on TV this season, and YouTube TV carries them all.

Although it isn't the only over-the-top streamer to carry these channels, YouTube TV is the most comprehensive and cost-efficient option, and undoubtedly one of the best streaming services to subscribe to right now.

The only games you can't watch on YouTube TV are those shown on Prime Video.

YouTube TV is also the home of Sunday Ticket, which lets you watch any out-of-market Sunday afternoon game. However, it isn't included as part of a standard YouTube TV subscription. RedZone is also available separately.

Best YouTube TV deals for watching the 25/26 NFL season

YouTube TV includes CBS, NBC, FOX, ESPN, ESPN2, ABC and NFL Network in its base plan, which usually costs $82.99 per month, but for a limited time you can get your first five months for $62.99 each after a 3-day FREE trial.

Similarly, Sunday Ticket would ordinarily set you back $378 per year, but right now you can get Sunday Ticket for $276 per year on top of a YouTube TV subscription.

RedZone costs an additional $10 per month.

Watch YouTube TV from anywhere in the world

YouTube TV only works in the U.S., which means that even if you're a paying customer, the moment you leave the country geo-restrictions will come into effect and prevent you from using your subscription to watch the NFL.

The NFL returns with 32 teams vying for a place in Super Bowl LX at the Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The Philadelphia Eagles are the current holders of the Lombardi Trophy and will once again be the team to beat, while the Kansas City Chiefs will be determined to reclaim their crown after being denied a historic three-peat.

Over the course of 18 weeks, the contenders will emerge during the regular season, and with Paramount+ you’ll be able to watch a host of games. The streaming service will show NFL games carried by local CBS stations, meaning you’ll be able to watch your local team in action.

Read on as we explain how to watch NFL on Paramount+ in the U.S..

How to watch NFL on Paramount+ in the U.S.

The previously announced ESPN standalone app finally has a release date: Thursday, August 21. The app, which Disney CEO Bob Iger called the "ESPN Flagship" in May, will offer all of ESPN's cable channels for a hefty $29.99 a month for the "unlimited" plan.

In a press release, communications director Olivia Coryell said that the new app would "introduce a more personalized, dynamic viewing experience for fans." New features included updated multiview, game stats, betting information and more.

There are multiple ways to access ESPN now and here's what it'll cost you:

• Special ESPN unlimited bundle launch offer: Disney Plus (ads), Hulu (ads): for $29.99 per for the first 12 months.
• ESPN unlimited: $29.99 per month or $299.99 annually
• ESPN unlimited bundle with Disney Plus (ads), and Hulu (ads): $35.99 per month.
• ESPN unlimited bundle with Disney Plus (no ads) and Hulu (no ads): $44.99 per month
• ESPN select (same as ESPN+ offerings): $11.99 per month or $119.99 annually
• ESPN select bundle Disney Plus (ads) and Hulu (ads): $16.99 per month
• ESPN select bundle Disney Plus (no ads) and Hulu (no ads): $26.99 per month

ESPN has had a busy summer acquiring the rights to air a variety of sporting events, including recent acquisitions of WWE premium events, which are moving over from Peacock.

The sports broadcaster also just acquired Redzone and the NFL Network in a deal that gives the NFL equity in ESPN.

ESPN has long been compromised journalistically since it covers the same sports that it pays to broadcast. This NFL deal further deepens ESPN’s conflict of interest. But if you just want the games and Steven A. Smith to yell at you about sports betting and fantasy sports, perhaps that won't be a big deal.

Other sports in ESPN's coverage include the U.S. Open, international soccer, volleyball, field hockey, women's college soccer, and soon, the WNBA playoffs, PLL playoffs, and NBA and NHL seasons.

Here are all the channels that will be available in the app:

• ESPN
• ESPN on ABC
• ESPN+
• ESPN2
• ESPN3
• ESPNU
• ESPNews
• ESPN Deportes
• SEC Network
• SEC Network +
• Longhorn Network
• ACC Network
• ACC Network Extra
• ESPN Goal Line
• ESPN Bases Loaded
• ESPN+ content

Incidentally, August 21 is the same day that the Fox One streaming service will launch, and it will feature Fox's sports offerings in addition to other Fox channels.

The majority of the fixtures will take place on Saturdays, though there's also a smattering of Thursday, Sunday and Monday night games, and the odd Sunday afternoon clash.

Where can and can't you access NFL Game Pass on DAZN? Read on as we explain how to watch NFL pre-season live streams from anywhere with a VPN for FREE.

The NFL is one of the most lucrative properties in the entertainment space, regularly garnering millions of views for a single game.

In a deal reported by The New York Times, the Disney-owned sports network would relinquish equity potentially worth billions to the NFL in exchange for the NFL Network and RedZone (the channel that allows you to watch all live games simultaneously).

And while the two properties are the meat of the deal, the side dishes are some pretty substantial content for ESPN to sink its teeth into.

What ESPN (and Disney) get

When all is said in done, NYT is reporting that ESPN will get NFL Network, RedZone, seven additional regular season game broadcasts (a fairly sizable number when you consider how short the NFL season is relative to other sports), the NFL's fantasy football business, special feature integration (like bettering) and possibly other assets.

That's a huge chunk of the NFL's in-house content. However, it also shifts the workload of managing all that content to ESPN, allowing the NFL to focus on football.

What the NFL gets

The NFL gets money.

Well, not cash in this case, but equity in ESPN. According to a previous CNBC report, the NFL could get as much as 10% ownership of ESPN.

With significant developments on the horizon for ESPN, including the reported launch of its standalone streaming service and app, this is an ideal time for a business entity like the NFL to take ownership of the largest sports broadcaster on the market.

What does this deal mean for you?

Big companies are exchanging billions of dollars. It happens all the time. What does it mean for you, the consumer who just wants to watch their favorite NFL teams every week?

That's where things become a little murkier. We've heard that ESPN intends to launch its standalone streaming service and app for around $30 per month. Rumors have also said it'll launch over the next couple of weeks, which is conveniently before the start of the NFL regular season.

If you're a cable holdout still paying for traditional cable services, you'll have access to the new ESPN App and all the goodies that come with it. That means nothing should change for you regardless of where the NFL Network and RedZone land.

For everyone else, this deal might force football fans to join ESPN, as it could be the only way to watch several football games throughout the season and the beloved RedZone, which allows fans to watch all the games during those peak Sunday times.

That is, of course, exactly why Disney is willing to part with up to 10% of its ESPN equity — your viewing attention (and $30 per month) is far more valuable to Disney.

The big question is when this will happen. Will the deal be finalized and implemented before the start of this NFL season? Will it happen at some point during the season, potentially confusing fans, or will it have to wait until next season? We should find out in the coming weeks when Disney, ESPN and the NFL end the speculation.

The Los Angeles Chargers and Detroit Lions are two of the league's most fascinating projects entering the new season, so their meeting in the 2025 NFL Hall of Fame Game feels like a particularly tantalizing treat. While preseason games don't tend to be played at full intensity, both Jim Harbaugh and Dan Campbell are dealing with a lot of unknowns.

You can watch NFL Hall of Fame Game live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for FREE.

Having made the NFC Championship in 23/24, the Lions had been expected to get further than the Divisional round last season, but injuries shredded their defense. But the Lions' dismay went further than that, because they knew a rebuilding job was coming.

Sure enough, the Lions have lost both their defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn and their offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who did such outstanding jobs at Detroit that they've been appointed to head coaching roles at the Jets and Bears respectively. Center Frank Ragnow has also retired. Aidan Hutchinson's return is a rare but major positive.

Justin Herbert had the NFL's best interception rate during the regular season but imploded spectacularly in the Wildcard round. It was a disappointing way to end the campaign, but Jim Harbaugh has clearly had a seismic impact. Omarion Hampton and Najee Harris will significantly improve the Chargers' ground game, though they may come to regret failing to replace Joey Bosa.

Here's how to watch NFL Hall of Fame Game 2025 live streams from anywhere in the world, and potentially for free.
