How to watch, stream NFL Thursday Night Football Week 7 games live online free without cable: NBC, Amazon

While this week’s Thursday night game might not put either team close to the top of their league, there’s certainly the chance for schadenfreude.

The Saints are coming off of a 51-27 drubbing by Tampa Bay last Sunday and are certainly looking for some absolution from their gridiron sins. The Broncos are coming off a loss as well, but that was preceded by a three-game win streak.

On top of all that, Saints QB Derek Carr is still doubtful, meaning backup Spencer Rattler will once again helm the team. If his performance matches last week’s, it could be one of those games that’s too painful to turn away from.

Bottom line: Both teams are looking to right the ship. Here’s how to watch this week’s matchup and what you can expect from Thursday night games tonight (and in the weeks to come).

Can I watch NFL Thursday night games for free on broadcast television?
