How to Watch NFL Playoffs Without Cable
Just like the regular season, the NFL playoffs are being broadcast all over the place, making it difficult to watch every game live. Games are being shown on CBS, Fox, NBC, and ESPN/ABC, with CBS games simulcast on Paramount+ and NBC games also on Peacock.
If you don’t have cable and want to watch every NFL playoff game, the best option is to get a live TV streaming service that carries CBS, Fox, NBC, and ESPN/ABC. Here’s a breakdown of some of the best options:
DirecTV Stream
DirecTV Stream carries CBS, Fox, NBC, and ESPN/ABC in all of its packages, meaning you can stream every remaining NFL playoff game. DirecTV Stream starts with a five-day free trial and packages start at $86.99 a month after that.
Fubo
Fubo also carries CBS, Fox, NBC, and ESPN/ABC, making it another great way to livestream NFL playoff games. Subscription pricing starts at $79.99 a month, but you get a seven-day free trial before paying.
Hulu + Live TV
You can also watch all NFL playoff games with Hulu + Live TV. This one starts at $81.99 a month after a three-day free trial. The best deal though is Hulu + Live TV with Hulu (No Ads), Disney+ (No Ads), and ESPN+ (With Ads) for $95.99/month.
Stream NFL Playoff Games for Free
