Here’s how to watch and stream NFL Thursday Night Football Week 2 games live and free online without cable: NBC, Amazon

The streaming service will broadcast its first game of the year tonight when the Buffalo Bills face the Miami Dolphins, a long-standing rivalry that is expected to result in a fierce competition.

Both teams won their season openers, so the winner of this game will be atop the AFC East for at least a few days (and maybe longer if the Patriots lose this weekend).

Here’s how to watch this week’s game and what to expect from Thursday night games tonight and in the future.
