Story byMike Vrabel's New England Patriots are making a name for themselves as a dynasty to be reckoned with: with Drake Maye's offensive leadership, the team has now won 9 straight games as we head into Week 13. The 10-2 Pats will face the 2-10 New York Giants, who are hoping to turn their ship around. The team fired defensive coordinator Shane Bowen earlier this week, naming Charlie Bullen as their interim DC, and quarterback Jaxson Dart is on the mend after suffering a concussion two weeks ago (he'll still need to clear concussion protocol to play this week, however).
You can tune into Monday Night Football's Giants vs. Patriots game on ESPN, which is available on streaming platforms like ESPN Unlimited and DirecTV. Here's what you need to know to tune in.

How to watch NFL games in 2025:
Many NFL games are broadcast on local channels, so if you're looking to catch an in-market game, it may be as simple as turning on your TV (or setting up a digital TV antenna) or finding a live TV streaming service that carries the correct RSN (Regional Sports Network). If you want to watch out-of-market games, a $7 monthly subscription to NFL+ will let you watch every out-of-market local and primetime game in the season on your phone — but only a select few regular-season games on your TV. You could also spring for the uber-expensive NFL Sunday Ticket package to get every out-of-market Sunday game of the season.
AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementWhen it comes to nationally broadcast games, NFL games typically air across ESPN, NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC and NFL Network. Thursday Night Football games stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, select football games will stream exclusively on Peacock, games on CBS will stream live on Paramount+, and Monday Night Football games will air on ESPN or ABC and stream on the newly revamped ESPN+ this season. That's six channels and four streaming platforms to keep up with this season — and that's not counting your local RSN's for in-market games and an NFL+ or NFL Sunday Ticket subscription for out-of-market games. Plus, Netflix is once again hosting at least two Christmas Day matches, so add that subscription into the mix. And we can't forget about Fox One, Fox's first streaming service, a place where you can also stream games airing on FOX (if you don't already have access to it).
Confused? You're not alone. Here's a breakdown of the platforms we recommend checking out during the 2025 NFL season, so that come game time, tuning into your favorite team's games will be as easy as simply turning on the TV.
