No longer are Monday nights reserved for the best football game of the week. That honor now often goes to Sunday Night Football, which hosts a premier matchup weekly at 8:20 p.m. on NBC.
Fortunately, even if you don’t have cable or can’t get to a TV, you can watch a live stream of NBC and SNF on your computer, phone or streaming device via one of the following:
FuboTV: Includes NBC (available live in 31 NFL markets–see below for list), 85 total channels, 30 hours of cloud DVR, and ability to watch games on-demand up to three days after they air even if you didn’t DVR them.
Hulu With Live TV: Includes NBC (available live in 31 NFL markets–see below for list), 50 total channels, 50 hours of cloud DVR, and Hulu’s complete library of TV shows and movies.
