Because NFL flex scheduling can change selected kickoff times and network assignments later in the season, checking the schedule close to game day is recommended.

Watching the Packers in Wisconsin

Fans in Wisconsin have an advantage because many Packers games are distributed through local broadcast television.

Sunday afternoon games are commonly shown by FOX or CBS depending on that week’s NFL television assignment.

If the Packers are the locally selected game, viewers can watch through the appropriate local affiliate.

That means a traditional cable package is not always necessary.

A compatible over-the-air antenna can receive local broadcast stations in areas with sufficient signal coverage, while live TV streaming services can provide those stations over the internet.

The most important channels for an in-market Packers fan are generally:

FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC and ESPN.

Prime Video must be considered separately when Green Bay appears on Thursday Night Football.

Which Streaming Setup Works Without Cable?

There is no requirement to keep a cable subscription just to follow Green Bay.

Instead, fans can build coverage around a live TV streaming provider.

YouTube TV

YouTube TV can cover many Packers broadcasts because supported markets include major local networks along with ESPN.

Its biggest advantage for NFL fans is the option to add NFL Sunday Ticket.

That makes it particularly useful if you follow Green Bay from outside Wisconsin.

Hulu + Live TV

Hulu + Live TV can provide local FOX, CBS, NBC and ABC stations in eligible markets along with ESPN.

It works well for viewers who mainly need regional Packers games and nationally televised matchups.

Fubo

Fubo emphasizes live sports and carries major broadcast networks in many areas.

Before subscribing specifically for Packers games, check the available local FOX and CBS affiliates for your ZIP code.

DIRECTV STREAM

DIRECTV STREAM is another option for combining local television stations with national sports channels through an internet-based package.

The exact lineup depends on the selected plan and market.

When the Packers Are on FOX or CBS

Sunday afternoon football creates the biggest source of confusion for out-of-market fans because FOX and CBS coverage is regional.

If FOX has the Packers game in your television market, you can watch it through your local FOX station or a streaming service carrying that affiliate.

The same applies to CBS.

However, someone watching from another state may receive a completely different NFL matchup on the same network.

That is where NFL Sunday Ticket becomes important.

CBS viewers may also be able to stream their local NFL on CBS broadcast through Paramount+, depending on plan and local availability.

Packers Prime-Time Games Require Different Services

Green Bay regularly attracts national interest, so Packers fans should be prepared for games outside the normal Sunday afternoon window.

Sunday Night Football

NBC carries Sunday Night Football.

Peacock provides the corresponding streaming option, making it possible to watch without a traditional cable subscription.

Monday Night Football

ESPN is the primary home of Monday Night Football, with selected games also available on ABC.

Fans using a live TV streaming service should make sure ESPN is included in their package.

Thursday Night Football

Prime Video carries Thursday Night Football.

A Packers game assigned to this window generally requires Amazon Prime Video rather than FOX, CBS or a traditional NFL Sunday package.

These national broadcasts are separate from NFL Sunday Ticket.

Living Outside Wisconsin? Sunday Ticket Matters Most

A Packers fan living in Florida, California, Texas or another distant market may find that the local FOX or CBS affiliate regularly shows another team instead of Green Bay.

NFL Sunday Ticket addresses that problem.

The package provides eligible out-of-market Sunday afternoon games and is available through YouTube.

For someone who wants to watch nearly every Packers game from outside Green Bay’s normal television territory, Sunday Ticket is usually the most important additional subscription.

It does not include every broadcast category.

You still need the appropriate service for games assigned to NBC, ESPN, Prime Video, Netflix or another national/exclusive platform.

Can NFL+ Replace Sunday Ticket?

Not really.

NFL+ serves a different purpose.

It provides access to live local and national NFL games on supported mobile devices, while NFL+ Premium adds features such as NFL RedZone and full or condensed game replays.

That makes it useful if you watch primarily on a phone or tablet or want to replay Packers games later.

NFL Sunday Ticket, meanwhile, is designed around live out-of-market Sunday afternoon viewing.

A fan may therefore find value in either service—or both—depending on how and where they watch.

Can You Watch Packers Games Free Over the Air?

Sometimes.

If a Packers game is being carried by FOX, CBS, NBC or ABC in your local television market, an antenna may be enough to watch it without paying for a streaming subscription.

This is particularly useful for fans who live within the Packers’ regional broadcast area.

An antenna does not provide ESPN or Prime Video, and it cannot bypass regional Sunday broadcast assignments.

So while free over-the-air television can cover a meaningful portion of the schedule, it will not necessarily cover every game.

Best Option for Packers Fans Outside the United States

International viewing is simpler in many regions because NFL Game Pass provides centralized access.

United Kingdom

UK Packers fans can use NFL Game Pass on DAZN for extensive regular-season and postseason coverage.

Sky Sports also broadcasts NFL games, including selected Sunday matchups and major prime-time windows.

If your priority is following Green Bay every week rather than only watching games selected for UK television, NFL Game Pass is generally the more comprehensive option.

Canada

Canadian viewers can also use NFL Game Pass on DAZN.

Additional NFL broadcasts are available through Canadian partners such as TSN, CTV and RDS.

TSN carries substantial national NFL coverage, CTV shows selected Sunday games, and RDS provides French-language options.

For Packers fans who do not want to depend on weekly network selections, NFL Game Pass offers broader season-long access.

A Practical Setup for Different Packers Fans

A fan living in Wisconsin may only need a live TV service—or even an antenna—for many weeks, adding Prime Video or another service when Green Bay moves into an exclusive national window.

An out-of-market US fan has a different problem. Local FOX and CBS affiliates may not show Green Bay, so pairing a normal TV package with NFL Sunday Ticket provides substantially better coverage.

Fans who mainly watch on mobile can consider NFL+, while international supporters can generally simplify the entire setup through NFL Game Pass.

The right combination therefore depends more on where you live and which device you use than on the Packers themselves.

Before Each Packers Game

Check three things before kickoff: the scheduled start time, the assigned network and whether the game is regional or nationally televised.

This matters more later in the season because the NFL can use flexible scheduling to move eligible games into different time slots.

Week 18 is especially fluid, with kickoff times and television assignments often determined only after the playoff picture becomes clearer.

The schedule above is designed to update when newer kickoff and TV information becomes available.

Bottom Line

There is no single US streaming subscription guaranteed to carry every Green Bay Packers game.

For in-market fans, local FOX and CBS broadcasts cover many Sunday games, while NBC, ESPN, ABC and Prime Video handle various national windows.

Out-of-market viewers should consider NFL Sunday Ticket, and NFL+ provides an additional mobile and replay option.

UK and Canadian Packers fans can use NFL Game Pass on DAZN for broader season-long coverage.
