Normally, games between the top and bottom teams in the AFC West wouldn’t be must-see television. Typically, though, Taylor Swift isn’t one of the wild cards.
The Kansas City Chiefs (and, of course, Travis Kelce ) will take on the Denver Broncos on Thursday night. Yes, Swift is expected to attend, too. If so, it would be the superstar’s third Chiefs game of the season.
As for the game, the Broncos’ defense is, well… pretty bad this year. That makes the odds stacked against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, but division rivalry can sometimes light a fire on the underdog.
Amazon is still the place to watch Thursday’s game, but there are some potential workarounds. Here’s how to watch tonight as well as Thursday night’s game and what you can expect next.

Can I watch NFL Thursday night games for free on broadcast TV?
Only if you are in the broadcast area of the two teams that are playing. If not, you will need an Amazon Prime account. The larger broadcast networks will not offer simulcasts. Sorry Swifties.
If I don’t have an Amazon Prime account, can I stream NFL Thursday night games online?
No. While games on other days offer fans a variety of viewing options, Amazon has nearly exclusive viewing rights to all Thursday night games. Other streaming services cannot carry them. The only exception is Thanksgiving.
What changes is Amazon bringing to the 2023 NFL games?
Amazon Using machine learning This season is designed to identify key situations, allowing fans to read plays on the fly and track open receivers. It will also guide viewers on how to make Round 4 decisions. Meanwhile, a feature called “Goal Target Area” overlays multiple lines on the field to show the kicker’s statistical likelihood of a shot.
If you join a game in progress, the quick recap feature simplifies viewing by letting you catch the action you missed before jumping into the live stream.
It will also feature many of last year’s changes, including using “X-ray” technology to overlay statistics and game updates, much like it provides information about which actors from a movie or TV show appeared in a scene. Additionally, alternative streaming targeting younger audiences has been launched, with YouTube team Dude Perfect replacing the standard live broadcast and color commentary teams.
Who is Amazon’s live streaming team?
Al Michaels, who has hosted games on “Monday Night Football” and “Sunday Night Football,” is responsible for the team’s play-by-play coverage. Kirk Herbstreit, who until last year primarily focused on the college game and was a key figure on ESPN’s “College GameDay,” provides color commentary.
Does the NFL offer viewing packages for Thursday night games?
Indeed.this National Football League App will allow you to stream games played locally in your market as well as games played during prime time.
