How to watch 49ers vs. Seahawks in NFL Week 6 (with and without cable TV)
By Peter Panacy
The 49ers visit the Seahawks on Thursday Night Football, and here's how fans can tune in via television or live stream.
Every week in any given NFL season is vital, and the Week 6 Thursday Night Football showdown between the 2-3 San Francisco 49ers and the NFC West-leading Seattle Seahawks is a perfect example.
After already dropping two games within the division, the Niners could actually steal the top spot in the NFC West by upending the 2-3 Hawks on Thursday night, wholly transforming what has been a frustrating start to the 2024 campaign.
However, a San Francisco loss would perpetuate its winless record against the division, which will unquestionably carry serious ramifications in the conference playoff picture by the time December rolls around.
Already dealing with a rash of serious injuries, plus playing on a short week, the 49ers will look to continue a recent string of domination that extends back five games over their hated Pacific Northwest foes at an unfriendly venue.
It's a primetime game, but not all fans across the country will be able to watch the TV broadcast.
Here's how fans can tune in live to Thursday's bout, which kicks off on Oct. 10 at 8:15 p.m. ET from Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington.
