In Week 18 of the NFL season, Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams take on the Seattle Seahawks from Lumen Field in Seattle. Here is how to watch the 4:25 PM EST kickoff live without cable on FOX.

How to watch today’s Rams game
Looking for a specific Rams game? We list the LA Rams TV schedule, as well as the live TV streaming services that carry each game, in the easy to use table below.
The most important channels for Rams fans
The most important channels for Los Angeles Rams fans will be CBS, FOX, ESPN, and NBC, and of all these, FOX, the channel with rights for most NFC games through 2033, will be the most important for watching the Rams week in and week out.
NFL coverage for each channel:
- CBS – In-market AFC games / some NFL Playoff games
- FOX – In-market NFC Games / some NFL Playoff games / 2023 Super Bowl
- ESPN – Monday Night Football / some NFL Playoff games
- NBC – Sunday Night Football / some NFL playoff games
The table below documents the live TV streaming providers that carry the most important channels for watching the NFL.
Note: Sling TV carries FOX and NBC, but only in select markets. Luckily for Rams fans, LA is one of the markets that gets FOX and NBC.

The best options for local Rams fans
The streaming services below offer excellent in-market coverage for LA Rams games.
Watch the Rams on fuboTV
fuboTV carries all the channels you need to watch Rams football. The fuboTV app will even send you text messages to notify you when the Rams are on TV.

Sling TV Blue – affordable pick
Even though the platform is missing ABC, CBS, and ESPN, I like to offer Sling TV Blue as a good option for NFC fans, like Rams fans, in markets where Sling carries FOX and NBC, as it does in LA.
Why?
Because the rising cost of streaming services is pricing some families out of the market. By going with Sling Blue, you still get FOX 11, and if you upgrade to Sling Orange & Blue, ESPN can be added. If the Rams appear on Sunday Night Football, fans in LA can watch with Sling Blue on NBC Los Angeles.
Note: Sling Blue isn’t a good option for Rams fans in San Diego as the service doesn’t offer FOX or NBC in the San Diego market.
DirecTV Stream – best overall choice for LA sports fans
If you want a live TV streaming service that offers comprehensive coverage for in-market LA sports action, DirecTV Stream “Choice”) is the winner. Yes, it is pricey, but not only does the platform offer the channels you need to watch the Rams, as the only streaming service that carries Spectrum Sportsnet and Spectrum Sportsnet LA, subscribers get access to:
- LA Lakers basketball
- LA Clippers basketball
- LA Kings hockey
- LA Dodgers baseball
- LA Angels baseball

Watch the Rams on Hulu + Live TV
Yes, Hulu + Live TV carries CBS, FOX, ESPN, and NBC. Some fans will be drawn to Hulu’s ESPN+ bundle which offers a number of exciting live sports streaming options, including UFC events and out-of-market NHL action.

Watch the Rams on YouTube TV
Yes, YouTube TV offers CBS, ESPN, FOX, and NBC, plus a number of innovative features like a fantasy football integration and 4K package.
If you don’t live in SoCal
For fans that live far away from Los Angeles, but still want to watch the Rams every week, you have two options.
- Wait for the Rams to be on national TV, or hybrid regional games. We estimate these options would cover 6-8 games a year.
- Buy NFL Sunday Ticket to guarantee access to Rams broadcasts every Sunday. For 2022, streaming NFL Sunday Ticket.TV is tough and requires fans to demonstrate they aren’t eligible for a satellite dish.

Watching the Rams FAQ
With the NFL TV schedule, it’s not always as simple as in-market vs. out-of-market. Yes, the Rams will be on TV most reliably in Southern California, with FOX 11 in LA, and FOX 5 in San Diego, carrying the bulk of Rams games.
However, a team like the Rams, having just come off a Super Bowl win, will be featured in a number of national games like Monday Night Football, as well as hybrid-national games which get broadcast to large segments of the population. Even if you don’t live in LA, if you pick a live TV streaming service that carries FOX, ESPN, CBS, and NBC, which all of my picks below offer, you will get to watch the Rams quite a bit. Having said that, fans in markets on the east coast, or mountain west, have a lot of competition from teams like the Cowboys, Chiefs, and Broncos. If you need a guarantee of getting every Rams game and are living out-of-market, it may be worthwhile to invest in NFL Sunday Ticket.TV, although 2022 is a tough year to qualify.
KSPN 710 AM and KCBS-FM 93.1 are the flagship Rams radio stations. AM 590 Inland Empire also carries Rams games.
