What the NFL did to us last year

Last season's calendar wasn't designed for fans — it was designed for streaming bidding wars. Here's the receipt.

🎄 Christmas Day 2025 — TWO services, THREE games, ZERO antenna

  • 1:00 PM ET · Cowboys @ Commanders · Netflix
  • 4:30 PM ET · Lions @ Vikings · Netflix (halftime: Lainey Wilson + Huntr/x with Snoop Dogg)
  • 8:15 PM ET · Broncos @ Chiefs · Amazon Prime Video

If you wanted every Christmas game live, you needed BOTH Netflix AND Prime Video. No cable bundle, no antenna fallback, no Sunday Ticket workaround. Pay or miss.

🏆 Wild Card weekend — Amazon Prime exclusive

  • Jan 11, 2026 · Packers @ Bears Wild Card · Amazon Prime Video EXCLUSIVE

31.6 million viewers — the largest streaming-exclusive NFL audience ever. No CBS/FOX/NBC/ABC simulcast. If you weren't a Prime subscriber, you didn't see the game live. Period.

📺 Saturday late-season (Weeks 16-18) — pick your poison

  • NFL Network · Amazon · Peacock · ABC split across the same Saturday windows
  • 3+ subscriptions to catch every game in a single afternoon

The "let's split Saturday across four streamers" experiment. They liked the numbers enough to keep doing it.

🕐 Sunday 1pm dual windows — every single week

  • CBS + FOX run early Sunday games AT THE SAME TIME, 18 weeks straight
  • Your local affiliate picks ONE per network — see 506sports.com for the weekly map
  • For the other 25+ simultaneous games: YouTube TV / Hulu+Live / cable in-market — or Sunday Ticket if you want every out-of-market game

This isn't a holiday gimmick. It's the structural baseline. Sunday Ticket exists because of this.

The 2026-27 schedule hasn't dropped yet — but it WILL.

Netflix is locked into Christmas Day through 2026. Amazon's Wild Card exclusive renews. Peacock and Apple TV+ are circling more inventory. BE READY for the madness to continue — and probably escalate. We'll update this card the moment the new dates and matchups are announced.

NFL streaming services compared

Every NFL service in one table — what it costs, what games it covers. You do not need all of these. Rick's Picks above already narrowed it down. This is here in case you want to see the whole landscape.

A quick note about this page

This is a helpful starting point, not the final word. The NFL changes its TV deals constantly, and the info here reflects the 2025-2026 season. We can't guarantee everything is 100% current — always double-check prices, channels, and game times with the service before you subscribe. Spotted something off? Tell us.

Questions people actually ask

Real questions from real readers — and direct answers from 22 years of install experience.

I only watch on my phone — what's the best NFL option mobile-only?

NFL+ Premium ($14.99/mo) is built for this — every NFL game live on your phone, including local-market games which Sunday Ticket blacks out. NFL+ Premium also includes NFL Network 24/7 and RedZone. The catch: it's PHONE/TABLET ONLY — won't work on a streaming stick or TV. For a mobile-only household, NFL+ Premium plus an antenna (for casting to occasional TV viewing) is the cheapest legitimate path. Total: $15/mo.
