NFL and college football’s 5-day playoff stretch starts now. Here’s how you can watch each game
Every game time, and more importantly all the streaming services you’ll need.
The schedules in College Football and the NFL are coalescing for five straight days of binge-watching unlike anything we’ve seen in years. This football-shaped eclipse is worth preparing for, and to be clear, you will need to do a little prep work ahead of time.
Between the CFB Playoff and NFL Wild Card round, there are FIVE different services you need to be subscribed to in order to watch everything on offer. While it’s likely you probably already have some of these services, it’s best to know ahead of time than get caught out right before you’re trying to watch a game.
Everything is so much simpler than when we had cable, right?
