As the preseason reaches its final week, the Pittsburgh Steelers are hitting the road to take on the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium on Thursday.
Kickoff is at 7 p.m. ET. Here’s a rundown of how to watch the Steelers vs Panthers online without cable, with the live streaming options being dependent on where you reside:
If The Game is in Your Market
First, you’ll want to know what channel the game is on. It’s on CBS in Pittsburgh and ABC in Charlotte, and it will be on either ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CW or MyTV in other cities.
Then, if you don’t have cable, you can watch a live stream of one, some or all of these channels (in select markets) on your computer, phone, Roku, Fire TV or other streaming device via one of the following live-TV streaming services:
Fans in Pittsburgh, Charlotte & Other Select Markets: Hulu With Live TV
In addition to a Netflix-like on-demand streaming library, Hulu also offers a bundle of 60-plus live TV channels, including Fox, NBC, CBS, ABC & CW (all live in select markets; view channels in your area).
You can sign up for “Hulu with Live TV” right here, and you can then watch a live stream of the Steelers vs Panthers on your computer via the Hulu website, or on your phone (Android and iPhone supported), tablet, Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Echo Show, or other streaming device via the Hulu app.

Fans in Pittsburgh & Other Select Markets: Amazon Prime
If the game is on CBS in your area (as it is in Pittsburgh, Altoona, Harrisburg, Greensboro and other markets), and you don’t need any other channels, Amazon Prime’s CBS channel is a great option.

Fox, NBC, CBS and CW (all live in select markets; view channels in your area) are among the 95-plus live TV channels included in the main FuboTV bundle, which is largely tailored towards sports. ABC is not included, so fans in Charlotte will want to use a different option.

Steelers vs. Panthers Preview
As the preseason hits its final week, most teams will take a long, hard look at the deepest part of their depth charts with 53-man roster cuts on the horizon. Few, if any starters usually see the field in the preseason finale.
Most teams play just four preseason games — the exception being the two teams who play in the annual Hall of Fame Game — hoping to find a balance between staying sharp and avoiding injuries. That being said, there are always injuries that arise in the exhibition games that leave teams and fans with their heads in their hands.
The Steelers are looking to fill the giant holes left behind by two of their primary play makers — running back Le’Veon Bell and wide receiver Antonio Brown — leaving in the offseason. Bell signed a free agent deal after holding out all of last season, while Brown was traded to the Oakland Raiders following a falling out with the team.
The single “B” left of the Steelers once lethal Triple B’s is 37-year-old QB Ben Roethlisberger. He led the NFL in passing yardage last year with 5,129, while notching 34 touchdowns to 16 interceptions.
His new top target will be JuJu Smith-Schuster, who’s entering his third season in the black and yellow. Last season, Smith-Schuster made his first Pro Bowl, collecting 97 catches for 1,426 yards and seven touchdowns.
“I think that’s what is special and can be special about this group is the selflessness. I think every guy knows to be good we need to stay fresh,” Roethlisberger said. “I think you’re going to see more of that than you probably ever have on this team, that guys will be OK kind of subbing out and rooting for their buddy to score and to do good things and make plays for us.”
The Panthers are holding their collective breaths over a foot injury to quarterback Cam Newton, which happened in the team’s third preseason game. Newton had reportedly been in a boot, but was back at practice throwing passes this week. Newton also had shoulder surgery in the offseason.
“He’s basically just striding (his throws) out right now, not driving off of his leg or anything like that,” Rivera said. “I didn’t get the number of how many throws he made, but he threw it and threw it pretty well today, so we’re excited. He didn’t really drop back.”
The Panthers open up their season at home against the defending NFC champion Rams on Sept. 8. The Steelers travel to take on the AFC champion Patriots the same day.
