Catching an NFL game on Christmas isn't as easy as it used to be.
Want to catch a game after the presents are open? You're going to need to be subscribed to not one, but two streaming services
Catching an NFL game on Christmas isn't as easy as it used to be.
There are three games scheduled for Dec. 25, but none of them will be broadcast over the air this year. To watch, you'll need to be subscribed to not one but two different streaming services.
Have streamers figured out how to handle the holiday crunch of fans? There’s only one way to find out.
As always, the home team is listed second.
Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Commanders, 1 p.m. ET on Netflix $NFLX
Detroit Lions vs. Minnesota Vikings, 4:30 p.m. ET on Netflix
Denver Broncos vs. Kansas City Chiefs, 8:15 p.m ET. on Amazon $AMZN Prime Video
Generally you can't. To be able to watch over the air, you'll need to be in one of the six broadcast zones of the six teams’ home town. To ensure you're getting the most reliable signal, get an HD antenna and be sure to test the antenna in multiple locations in your home.
Not unless you have a friend who subscribes to Netflix and Amazon Prime and they invite you over. The game will not be broadcast nationally on traditional TV or other streaming services.
Yes, but you only have two options — and neither will show all the games.
The streaming king is the main home of this year’s Christmas games. There’s no free trial, but you can cancel at any time. Plans start at $7.99 per month for the ad-supported option and $17.99 for ad-free.
This service is included in Amazon Prime memberships. If you don't have one, you can get a 30-day free trial before the $14.99 per month or $139 per year fee kicks in. Alternatively, you can get a standalone subscription to Prime Video for $8.99 per month.
Yes, but only the evening game.
