HOW DO I LIVE STREAM THE LOS ANGELES RAMS VS. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS GAME?

The 49ers/Rams game will air on FOX. If you have a cable subscription, and (this is important) you are receiving the broadcast in your area, you’re all set: you can live stream Rams vs 49ers free via the Fox Sports Go app, available on iTunes, Roku, Amazon Fire Stick, Android, and more.

If you’re a crafty cord cutter, you can also watch via Sling TV, whose Blue package carries Fox (more on Sling below). If you’re a Verizon customer, you can also stream certain games airing on the NFL Network, FOX, CBS, NBC, and ESPN on the NFL Mobile app or go90 app, which is available to download for free via iTunes or Google Play.

And don’t forget about PlayStation Vue! Subscribers to their ‘Access’ basic cable streaming service have access to FOX, though channel lineups vary by region.

CAN I STREAM VIA DIRECTV SUNDAY TICKET?

You can, but only if you live at an address at which DirecTV does NOT offer service (and only out-of-market games). Check your eligibility here.

WHAT ABOUT NFL GAME PASS?

NFL Game Pass shows games that have already concluded. If you’re fine with on demand NON-live games, sign up for $99/year.

WHAT ABOUT TWITTER? I HEARD THEY WERE STREAMING THE NFL THIS YEAR.

Twitter is indeed streaming a number of games, but only Thursday night games, and not all of them.

HOW CAN I GET SLING TV?

This is a terrific time to check out Sling TV. The service’s Blue package, which includes major networks like Fox and NBC, normally costs $25 a month, but are currently offering subscribers a free one-week trial of the service. Then, from there, you can either download the Sling desktop app (if you’re watching on a desktop or laptop computer), or download the Sling app for iOS/Apple devices, Android, Roku, Microsoft, Nexus player, ZTE or XBox One.
