Are you ready for some football? Some NFL Playoffs 2016 football, specifically? After 17 long weeks, we certainly are. Here’s everything you need to know to enjoy today’s NFC wildcard matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and the Minnesota Vikings.
WHAT TIME DOES THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS VS. MINNESOTA VIKINGS GAME START?
Great question. The first thing you probably want to know if you’re looking to watch the game is what time it’s on. Kick off is at 1:05 p.m. ET.
HOW CAN I LIVE STREAM THE SEAHAWKS VS. VIKINGS GAME?
NBC has the rights to broadcast this game. The Vikings/Seahawks game is being livestreamed on the Peacock’s NBC Sports Live Extra app. If you’re a Verizon Mobile subscriber, you’re in luck: The NFL is also making all of its playoff games available to livestream on the NFL Mobile App, too.
HOW CAN I GET THE NBC SPORTS LIVE EXTRA APP?
NBC NFL Playoff games will be available via NBC Sports Live Extra on your laptop, Apple TV, Roku and Amazon Fire TV. You can also stream the Seahawks/Vikings matchup on your smart phone or tablet device by downloading the NBC Sports Live Extra app for your iOS, Android or Windows. (Just a heads-up — You’re going to have to authenticate with your cable provider in order to watch this game. Cordcutters, you know what this means; time to call in some favors!)
HOW CAN I GET THE NFL MOBILE APP?
NFL Mobile is available at NFL.com/mobile for Windows, iOS and Android phones, and live game access is included for all Verizon Wireless customers. Along with live streams, NFL Mobile also offers up-to-the-minute scores, stats, highlights, and access to NFL Now for all fans.
ANYTHING ELSE I NEED TO KNOW?
Yes, of course. This game is going to be played in straight up FRIGID conditions; it might even be the coldest game in NFL history. The Weather.com forecast calls for temperatures of -2 degrees Farenheit at kick off, and if you factor in the wind chill, it’s going to feel like it’s -17 degrees. It’s going to be so cold that the players are going to be wearing specially designed thermal underwear. In case you were wondering, the coldest game in NFL history was the 1967 title game at Lambeau Field — AKA the “Ice Bowl” — where the Packers and Cowboys faced -13 degrees and a wind chill of -48. Brrrrrrrrr!
