Two teams that had playoff aspirations at the start of the year but have yet to mark one in the win column in 2017 meet in a compelling Week 5 matchup, as the Los Angeles Chargers (0-4) travel to East Rutherford to take on the New York Giants (0-4).
Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET and will be broadcast in select markets on CBS. When looking for a live stream, the first thing you want to do is to find out if the game is in your market or not, which you can do by checking a coverage map here.
If the game is in your market, you can watch a live stream on your computer, tablet or streaming device via CBS All Access. The service offers a free trial, so you can watch today’s game at no cost.
