Cable? Cut the Cord? We've Got You Covered (Unless You Literally Cut the Cord)
There are more ways to watch the Chiefs these days than there are trick plays in Andy Reid's playbook. Here's your cheat sheet:
Channel Surfing Champion: Fire up that old reliable, the television! Catch the Chiefs on your local CBS affiliate for most games. Double-check the schedule though, because sometimes the football gods decide to bless another network.
Streaming Samurai: For those who've embraced the cord-cutting life, there are heroes in shining armor (or should we say, armor made of streaming services). Paramount+ is your best bet to catch all the CBS games, including those featuring our beloved Chiefs. Other options like Hulu + Live TV or YouTube TV can also be your ticket to the game, offering a buffet of channels including CBS.
Mobile Mahomes Fanatic: Can't be glued to the TV? No problem! The NFL app (with a subscription) lets you watch live, out-of-market preseason games, and catch local and primetime games during the regular and post-season on your phone or tablet. Chiefs mobile app? You bet! It might not beam the game directly to your eyeballs, but it offers replays and other goodies to keep the Chiefs spirit alive.
Pro Tips for the Ultimate Viewing Experience
Now that you know how to see the game, here's how to truly experience it:
QuickTip: A short pause boosts comprehension.
- Become a Snack Stadium: Who needs overpriced stadium nachos when you can DIY a feast fit for a champion? Brats, chili, queso dip – the possibilities are endless (and probably healthier).
- Themed Threads are Mandatory: Dust off your Mahomes jersey, paint your face in Chiefs red, or rock a bedazzled helmet (safety first, Chiefs Kingdom!).
- Embrace Your Inner Announcer: Nobody puts on a one-man (or woman) broadcast like a die-hard fan. Let out those victory shouts, groan at the bad calls, and become the color commentator your living room deserves.
Remember, Chiefs fans are a family. So invite your fellow fanatics over, crank up the volume, and let's cheer our team to another victory!
