No Peacock? No problem. Here's where you can watch Bills vs Chargers in Rochester
Following major victories over the Kansas City Chiefs and Dallas Cowboys, the Buffalo Bills have become must-see TV.
Unfortunately, watching their Saturday night game against the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium won't be as simple as turning on your set.
In a first, streaming service Peacock, owned by NBCUniversal, will be the only network carrying the 8 p.m. matchup, and the lowest-cost plan is $5.99 a month.
You can watch games on NFL.com and the NFL mobile app, and you can subscribe to NFL+, the league’s own streaming service, although you can’t cast the games to your TV — you have to watch on your phone or tablet.
There are alternatives for folks who don’t subscribe to those services.
If you’re going to be in Buffalo, you’ll be able to watch on NBC affiliate WGRZ-TV.
If you plan to stay here, a number of Rochester-area bars will be showing the broadcast.
