There’s good news and bad news for West Coast football fans this week. The bad news is you’ll once again have to wake up at a depressingly early hour if you want to catch this week’s international game, where the Patriots meet the Jaguars. The good news is that, after this week, you’ll be able to sleep in for a while.
The schedule returns to normal next week for a little under a month. In the meantime, there are plenty of rivalry games taking place, including the Eagles taking on the Giants and the Raiders facing the Rams. Minnesota and Kansas City, meanwhile, will strive to keep their undefeated streaks alive. But the game that will likely capture the most attention is the Chiefs and 49ers, in a rematch of Super Bowl LVIII.
Planning to watch? There are a variety of ways to do so. Here’s all you need to know about this week’s games.

The best way to watch any sort of network programming for free on a big screen is with a good HD antenna. To ensure you’re getting the most reliable signal, be sure to test the antenna in multiple locations in your home.
You sure can—and you’ve got a number of ways to do so.
CBS’s streaming service will give you a one-week free trial, followed by a $8 or $13 monthly charge. (An annual plan is as low as $30 right now.)
NBC’s streaming service will give you access to several games, including all upcoming Sunday night matchups. It carries a $8 or $14 monthly charge—and the service has recently done away with its free trial. (The free version of Peacock does not include live sports.)
Disney’s bundle of Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ no longer has a free trial, so you’ll have to pay $17 per month for all three combined (or $30 per month for no ads on Hulu).
Including Live TV in the bundle bumps the price to $77 per month ($90 with no ads).
The free trial on this service lasts three days. Afterward, it will cost you $77 per month.
After a free trial, you can expect monthly charges of $73.
Dish Network’s Sling lower-tiered “Orange” plan will run you $40 per month. Adding the more comprehensive “Blue” plan bumps the cost to $55 per month. The seven-day free trial has disappeared, unfortunately.
Formerly known as DirecTV Now, AT&T TVNow and AT&T TV, this oft-renamed streaming service will run you $80 per month and up after the free trial option. (The package that includes NFL Network will run you $99 per month.)
This sports-focused cord-cutting service carries broadcast networks in most markets. There’s a seven-day free trial, followed by monthly charges of $80 and up, depending on the channels you choose.
On Thursday, but not Sunday. Amazon is the home of Thursday Night Football, with the exception of Thanksgiving (though it will air a game on Black Friday). The first matchup on Amazon this year will be the Denver Broncos facing the New Orleans Saints on Oct. 17.
