Read: I wrote the post with FireStick users in mind. You can use the same official apps on other devices and watch the NFL playoffs without cable.

Back in 2020, the NFL expanded the playoffs format from 12 to 14 teams. After a long and tiring 18 weeks of the 2023-24 NFL season, we have seven teams from each conference battling in the postseason, with the top team getting a direct entry to the divisional round. I’ll show you how you can watch every NFL playoff game on FireStick without cable so you don’t miss any of the remaining football action.

Having started on January 13, the 2024 NFL playoffs will go until January 28. After a couple of weeks of break, we will have the 2024 Super Bowl on February 11.

NFL Playoffs 2024 Details

This NFL season has been an exciting one. Apart from number one seeds in both conferences (the Ravens and 49ers), none of the teams have been clear-cut favorites to claim sport in playoffs. For the fourth straight season, seven teams from each conference compete to reach the Super Bowl 2024. Back in 2021, the organizers decided to implement a 17-game schedule, and the practice has since pushed the Super Bowl coverage to the second week of February instead of the first.

The 2023-24 NFL Playoffs will air on the same network providers as the regular season. CBS, FOX and NBC will broadcast most games, while ESPN and ABC will share the duties of airing Monday Night Football games. This time around, CBS holds the streaming right to air the Super Bowl game on February 11.

Before we talk about streaming options, let’s take a look at the 2023-24 NFL playoff matches.

Watch NFL Playoffs 2024 in the US

Now that you have a clear idea of the 2024 NFL playoff schedule, let’s have a look at streaming options that carry the relevant channels to watch every NFL playoff game without cable.

The situation with streaming rights  remains the same as before: Saturday night and Sunday night matches are with NBC. FOX and CBS will handle Sunday afternoon coverage. ESPN will stream Monday night playoff matches.

I will prioritize streaming services that offer all the relevant channels required to stream the NFL playoffs without cable. Let’s get started with fuboTV.

1. fuboTV

fuboTV is one of the few streaming services that offers all the major channels to watch NFL playoffs without cable.

You are looking at 220+ live TV channels with generous DVR storage support and up to 10 simultaneous connections.

The pricing starts at $64.99 per month and goes up to $74.99 per month. With a higher price, you get more DVR storage and more simultaneous screens.

fuboTV is throwing in a 7-day free trial to let new users try out the service before committing to any paid plan.

2. YouTube TV

YouTube TV would have been way down in the list if it had lost NBC channels due to licensing issues. Somehow, the companies resolved the issue and now YouTube TV has CBS, FOX, NBC, and YouTube channels to stream every NFL playoff game without cable.

Google is asking $72.99 per month to stream all 100+ channels. New users can sign up for a $64.99 per month bill for the first three months. The company offers three weeks of free trial to eligible subscribers.

YouTube TV has a native app for FireStick, which you can download using the guide below.

3. Hulu + Live TV

Hulu’s highest plan has all the live channels to watch every NFL playoff game. Along with that, you also get access to Hulu originals, Disney+, and ESPN+ (assuming you pay for them through the $72.99 monthly plan).

The DVR storage is capped at 50 GB, which is one of Hulu’s biggest limitations compared to the competition. Hulu has native apps for all the platforms. You can download Hulu on FireStick from the link below.

4. Sling TV

Sling TV misses out on CBS channels, so you won’t be able to stream a couple of AFC matches in the NFL playoffs.

Apart from that, the Sling Blue plan and the Sling Orange & Blue plan have ESPN, NBC, and FOX Sports channels to watch the NFL playoffs without cable.

Sling TV normally costs $40 per month. The service doesn’t offer a free trial, though. If you are tight on the budget, go with Sling TV to watch NFL Playoffs online.

5. Peacock

If you are only interested in Saturday late noon and Sunday night NFL playoff games, you can go with NBC’s Peacock streaming service.

It’s the cheapest streaming service among all the rivals in this list. Peacock also includes major sports events like the English Premier League and WWE, original shows like The Office, and more.

Peacock pricing starts at $5.99 per month. You can upgrade to $11.99 per month and enable offline viewing and an ad-free experience.

6. Paramount+

While Peacock is from NBCUniversal, Paramount+ is the streaming service from the CBS Network.

Paramount+ is home to high-profile sports events like the Champions League, Europa League, Serie A, March Madness, and more.

Paramount+ is offering a 7-day free trial to new users. It should be enough to stream several matches without cable.

Watch 2024 NFL Playoffs Without Cable in Canada

DAZN is the official NFL partner in the neighboring country of Canada. DAZN’s Canadian users are some of the luckiest in the world. For just CA$24.99 per month or CA$224.99 a year, you can watch NFL, La Liga, Champions League, Bundesliga, F1, and other highly anticipated events.

DAZN has official apps for every platform. Download the DAZN app on FireStick using the link below.

Note: If you don’t want to pay for a DAZN plan, you can use ExpressVPN to change server location to the US and use streaming services from the list above.

Watch NFL Playoffs 2024 in the UK

If you are living on the other side of the ocean and want to catch all the on-field action live, tune in to Sky Sports.

Sky Sports has a dedicated Sky Sports NFL channel (Sky 407 / Virgin Media 507). The company doesn’t have the Sky Go app available on FireStick.

You must use the Now TV service which has all 11 Sky Sports channels. The subscription starts at £33.99 per month.

Note: Once again, if you’d rather use a service available in a different country, get ExpressVPN so you can change your location and access the other services.

Watch the 2024 NFL Playoffs for Free (Official Apps)

You can use streaming apps like fuboTV and YouTube TV to catch several weeks of NFL coverage for free. That’s because fuboTV and YouTube TV have free trials to new subscribers.

The 2024 NFL playoffs will go on for two weeks. You can use a new email address and create an account at fuboTV to watch 7 days of action for free. You can also sign up for a YouTube TV subscription and enjoy three weeks of coverage without paying a single dime.

Just remember to cancel any trials you start before you’re charged for them. It helps to set a reminder on a task management or calendar app.

The following section is relevant for FireStick users. Amazon’s streaming stick does come with an App Store. However, you are free to download apps from the web as well.

Yes, users can install third-party apps, IPTV services, and Kodi addons to watch the NFL playoffs for free. It does require you to go through the side-loading process, but the hustle is worthwhile considering the content you get in return.

Before you go this route, you should create a completely private browsing experience with ExpressVPN on FireStick. Once you set up ExpressVPN on FireStick, you no longer need to worry about illegal or unlicensed content on these apps (after all, there must be reasons these apps are missing from the official Amazon App Store).

Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it free for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for a full refund.

Step 2: Power ON your Fire TV Stick and go to Find followed by Search option.

Step 3: Now type “Expressvpn” (without quotes) in the search bar and select ExpressVPN when it shows up in the search results.

Step 4: Click Download to install the ExpressVPN app on Fire TV / Stick.

Step 5: Open the app and enter the login credentials that you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription. Click Sign in.

Step 6: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for FireStick.

Third-Party Apps and Kodi Addons

Third-party streaming apps offer unlimited free content on FireStick. You are looking at news, sports, kids, and entertainment channels to watch on FireStick without cable. They include the NFL playoffs as well.

Here are the best third-party apps for FireStick. Go through them and install a couple of them.

Most FireStick users are already familiar with the Kodi app. If you are among those, you must have installed Kodi on FireStick. Once you have Kodi up and running, all you need to do is find relevant Kodi addons and integrate them with Kodi.

IPTV Services

IPTV services are a boon for those on a tight budget. They allow you to watch thousands of live TV channels for a small monthly price.

You also get access to high-profile PPV events, sports leagues, and much more without cable.

All you need is login details to a high-quality IPTV service and an IPTV player on your FireStick to stream the content.

Sports Streaming Websites

The last option on the list is sports streaming websites. They offer a ready-to-go solution to watch the NFL playoffs for free. This is perfect for a last-minute setup, though the quality on these sites tends to be lower than on other sources.

Start visiting these free sports streaming sites on the Amazon Silk browser, or sideload Google Chrome to FireStick if that’s your browser preference.

Wrapping Up

With no team emerging as the complete dominator, it can’t get any better than the NFL playoffs 2024. I’m all set to cheer for New England. What about you? Share your favorite pick in the comments below.
