On August 3rd, the Dallas Cowboys and Arizona Cardinals will face-off in the NFL Hall of Fame Game. The game will mark the first action of the 2017 NFL preseason and will take place at the Hall of Fame facilities in Canton, Ohio. Kickoff is at 8:00 p.m. ET and if you’d like to stream the game you’ll have several options.
You can live stream the game whether you do or don’t have a cable subscription. Several popular streaming services on the market, like DIRECTV NOW and several others, will be helpful for those who decided to cut cable. Other services will let you use your cable subscription to sign in and get the live stream. Read on to find out all the details!
Get Access to the NBC Sports App
The NBC Sports service is the critical piece to this whole puzzle. It’s the easiest way to actually live stream the game. Essentially, you just sign in to the website or the app and stream the entirety of the game.
If you have cable and are a fan of streaming, you probably already know the drill. Just authenticate on the NBC Sports app with your cable login and start streaming. But, if you don’t have cable you can still get access to the app.
Use a Streaming Service to Watch Live on NBC Sports
DIRECTV NOW, a popular service to fully replace a cable subscription, is one of the several services that give access to the stream. Others include fuboTV, a sports-first streaming service, and Sony’s PlayStation Vue, another great option as a cable replacement.
These services also give access to several other network streaming services, like FOX Sports Go. This was helpful during the U.S. Open and several other huge sporintg events. In a slightly different way, they may even be your answer to how you can watch the new season of Game of Thrones!
Each of these offers a month-to-month subscription with no contract. Both DIRECTV NOW and fuboTV start at $35 per month and each offers a 7-day free trial. You could always use the trial to stream the Hall of Fame Game free. PlayStation Vue starts at $40 per month and also has a free trial that last for 5 days.
Beyond access to the NBC Sports app, each of these services let you live stream a bunch of popular cable channels. They all have more than 40 channels in their starting packages that you can live stream.
In certain areas, you can even stream NBC and the Hall of Fame game right through the services. Vue and DIRECTV NOW also offer other channels, like ESPN, nationwide. That means both will let you watch every Monday Night Football game this year. Each also comes with plenty of additional bonus features, like on-demand libraries or cloud DVRs.
If you’re looking to try out any of these cable cutting tools, this would be your perfect opportunity. You can start one of those free trials to test the service and watch the Hall of Fame game for free. Now, you’ve got no excuse to not live stream the game!
