Nope! The NFL has a long tradition of splitting off games into their own categories: most games are played on Sunday in the afternoon and are carried on the “big 4” networks in the US, then there are 1 or 2 games each on Sunday Night, Monday, and Thursday. To be clear: these are all regular season games, just at different timings.
The rights to each “day” of games then get sold off separately. So right now Thursday games are on Prime, Monday games are on ESPN+, and Sunday Night games are on Peacock. Generally the steaming services want to use the games as an onboarding tool, so they are not available anywhere else and you have to subscribe to their whole streaming service, not just the games.
There is a service called “NFL Sunday Ticket” but it only lets you watch the games that aren’t available to you in some other way (so if it’s on Prime it’s not on NFL Sunday Ticket for anyone and if it’s on old-school antenna broadcast it’s not on NFL Sunday Ticket if the broadcast is too close to you).
To watch all of the NFL games you’ll need:
- Prime
- ESPN+
- Peacock
- Cable/Antenna/Fubo/YouTube TV (for home-team Sunday games)
- NFL Sunday Ticket (for other Sunday games)
(Or you can just pirate them, which is cheap and easy.)
- bookofjoe 2y agoSunday night games are also on NBC.
- awad 2y agoFWIW Monday night games are available on standard ESPN and, sometimes, ABC and Sunday night games are on NBC. So you don't strictly speaking need Peacock or ESPN+
- brewdad 2y agoBut this Christmas Day you will also need Netflix if you want to watch the Texans game with Beyonce half time show. Not usre about the other Christmas Day game.
- amanaplanacanal 2y agoI have ESPN+ and could not watch Monday's game, it was only on ESPN and I didn't have a cable subscription.
