Here’s how to stream NFL Thursday Night Football Week 11 games online for free without cables: NBC, Amazon
The Green Bay Packers haven’t had their best season yet, with a five-game losing streak that overshadowed much of the first half of the season.
However, last week the team organized and defeated the Dallas Cowboys in overtime, and fans are hoping Aaron Rogers and company will remain strong in the postseason. The first test of that comes tonight when the Tennessee Titans make the trip to Lambeau Field.
Green Bay is the favorite in the first game of Week 11 of the 2022-2023 NFL season — but not by much. However, a win would give the team momentum as the Titans look to extend their lead over the Colts in the AFC South.
Here’s how to watch Thursday night’s games tonight and the future, and what to expect.
Which NFL teams are playing on Thursdays this season?

Can I watch Thursday night NFL games for free on air television?
Only if you live in Green Bay or Nashville.
The hometowns of the two teams playing on a given Thursday will have the opportunity to watch over the air. Simulcasts are offered on broadcast networks so you can watch for free with a good HD antenna.
However, if you are outside of the coverage of these stations, streaming is your only option.
Can I live stream Thursday night NFL games online if I don’t have an Amazon Prime account?
Amazon has exclusivity on virtually all Thursday night games for the next 11 years, preventing other streaming services from broadcasting them. So if you don’t have a Prime account, consider one. The Thanksgiving night game airs on NBC.
What changes is Amazon offering for the broadcast NFL games?
Amazon uses its “X-Ray” technology to overlay stats and game updates, much like it provides information about which actors are in a scene during a movie or TV show. An alternative stream is also available for younger audiences, with YouTube troupe Dude Perfect replacing the standard play-by-play and color commentary team.
Who is the Amazon broadcast team?
Amazon has hired some of the most well-known announcers and commentators as it jumps into the NFL. Al Michaels, who has called on both Monday Night Football and Sunday Night Football, runs the team. Kirk Herbstreit, who has focused primarily on college games and played a key role in ESPN’s College GameDay program, is the color commentator. And All-Pro players Richard Sherman and Tony Gonzalez are analysts, alongside former Los Angeles Ram Andrew Whitworth and Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has played with nine teams during his career.
Can I watch Thursday Night Football at my favorite bar or restaurant?
You will. Ahead of the season, Amazon struck a deal with DirecTV, allowing more than 300,000 bars and restaurants across the country to broadcast the game
Does the NFL offer viewer packages to watch Thursday night games?
There is an alternative. That NFL app allows you to stream games that are broadcast locally in your market as well as any games that are played in prime time.
