Eagles vs. Packers

8:15 p.m. Eastern

Local Television: Those in the Green Bay or Philadelphia areas can find the game on regular NBC.

Out-of-Market Television: The game will be nationally televised on Peacock, a subscription-only streaming service owned by NBC. Before signing up, fans should note that this will be the only Peacock-exclusive game of the regular season.

Peacock monthly subscription plans start at $7.99/month. If you've never used Peacock before, you can sign up for a seven-day free trial here. Additionally, Today.com notes that a promo code--TGIF--will reduce the monthly price to $4.99.

Any Other Options?

Not really. (In the realm of legal options, at least.) Fans already shelling out tons of cash for NFL Sunday Ticket are likely to be the most agitated with the Peacock-exclusive game, as that subscription will not help fans access the Birds tonight. But NFL+ subscribers can get the game on a mobile device. And tech-savvy fans may be able to rig something up to transfer the mobile device's screen to their television.
