It's Saturday! You Ready for Some Chiefs Action (Without Leaving the Couch)?
Ah, Saturday. A time for chores? Maybe. Errands? Possibly. But most importantly, it's a glorious day for NFL football, especially if you're a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan! But what if you're stuck at home, surrounded by an army of dirty laundry and a fridge that's seen better days?

Here's your handy guide to watching Patrick Mahomes sling touchdowns from the comfort of your very own couch:
How To Watch Kansas City Chiefs Game On Saturday |
Cable? Cord Cutter? We Got You Covered:
Channel Surfing Champions: If you're rocking the classic cable setup, high five! Just tune into your local CBS affiliate. The game should be broadcasted live, with all the pre-game hype and post-game analysis you crave.
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
Cord Cutters, Unite!: Fret not, my fellow streamers! There are several options to get your Chiefs fix.
- Paramount+: This streaming service is your golden ticket for Chiefs games aired on CBS. Pro tip: Check your local listings to confirm the game is on CBS in your area.
- NFL+: This recently launched app lets you watch live, out-of-market preseason games, and even has local and primetime regular-season games available on your phone or tablet (restrictions may apply). Perfect for catching the game on the go!
- Subscription Slayin': Streaming services like Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and FuboTV often include CBS in their channel lineup. Check their free trial options to see if they'll work for you this Saturday.
Bonus Round: The Old-Fashioned Way: Let's not forget the OG method - good ol' radio! Tune into 106.5 The Wolf (KC's radio home for the Chiefs) and listen to the game called by Tico Sports.
QuickTip: Use the post as a quick reference later.
Remember, dear reader, verify the broadcast time and channel in your area before kickoff. Nobody wants to miss Mahomes work his magic because they were stuck on channel 32 watching reruns of "Everybody Loves Raymond" (although, that show is pretty funny).
FAQ: You Asked, We Answered (In Record Time!)
How to find my local CBS channel? A quick Google search for "CBS channel near me" should do the trick.
Tip: Pause whenever something stands out.
Can I watch the game on the NFL app? Not necessarily. The NFL app focuses more on out-of-market preseason games. However, NFL+ is a separate app that allows you to watch live local and primetime games (with some restrictions).
Is there a free way to watch the game? Some streaming services offer free trials, which could be an option. However, most require a paid subscription.
QuickTip: Focus more on the ‘how’ than the ‘what’.
What if the game is blacked out in my area? NFL+ allows you to watch out-of-market preseason games, but blackout restrictions may apply for regular-season games. Check your local listings or the NFL+ app for details.
Is it acceptable to wear my Mahomes jersey all day while watching the game? Absolutely! In fact, it's highly encouraged. Extra points for face paint (but maybe go easy on the ketchup).
So there you have it, folks! With a little planning and these handy tips, you'll be cheering on the Chiefs and celebrating touchdowns from the comfort of your couch - all without having to fold that laundry mountain (we won't judge). Now, grab some snacks, fire up the TV (or streaming device), and let's go Chiefs!
