Four key data points from the game tell a concise story: the Packers edged the Cardinals in a sold-out stadium.

What channel is the Packers and the Cardinals on?

Both the Arizona Cardinals and Green Bay Packers published official viewing guides for Week 7. The Cardinals listed CBS as the television outlet (AZ Cardinals official site), while the Packers’ guide pointed to FOX Sports (Green Bay Packers official site).

What channel is the Arizona Cardinals game on regular TV?

According to the Arizona Cardinals (team media division), the game aired on CBS in the Phoenix market. If you’re in a different region, a broadcast map from the NFL determines which channel (FOX or CBS) shows the game.

What channel is the Packers game on today?

The Green Bay Packers (official team site) stated that FOX broadcast the game nationwide. Use the NFL’s weekly coverage map or call your local cable provider to confirm the exact channel number.

The implication: viewers might need to flip between two channels based on their zip code. Always double-check local listings 24 hours before kickoff.

How can I watch the Packer game for free?

The term “free” is slippery with NFL broadcasts. Here are the options that don’t require a cable subscription.

Are NFL games free on Amazon Prime?

Amazon Prime Video carries Thursday Night Football, but this was a Sunday afternoon game. The game was not free on Prime unless you already had a subscription and accessed it via the Prime Video app. The Packers’ guide listed Prime Video only as a select market option.

How to watch Packers game for free with antenna?

An over-the-air antenna remains the most reliable free method. If you live within range of a FOX or CBS broadcast tower, you can watch live without any monthly fee. The Arizona Cardinals explicitly note that local TV listings determine channel availability. No antenna? Try a digital amplifier to improve reception.

Can I watch the game for free on NFL+?

NFL+ offers a free trial, but its live game access is limited to in-market local and primetime games on mobile devices. As the Cardinals explain, you must allow location access for streaming to work. After the trial, plans start at $6.99/month.

What this means: for true zero-cost viewing, an antenna is your best bet. Streaming trials work only if you’re in the right market and remember to cancel.

Is the Packers game only on Prime?

No — this regular-season Week 7 game was not exclusive to Amazon Prime Video. It aired on both FOX and CBS, as confirmed by both team sites (AZ Cardinals, Packers).

Can I watch the Cardinals game on Amazon Prime?

Only if you were in a select market where Prime Video carried the local broadcast. The Packers note that Prime Video is available in certain regions, but it’s not a national option for this game.

Are all NFL games on Prime Video?

No. Prime Video exclusively carries Thursday Night Football and a few special games. The Packers-Bears playoff game was exclusive to Prime, but that’s a separate event. For Week 7, the game was available on traditional broadcast networks (Packers).

The trade-off: if you assumed Prime was the only way, you might have missed the simpler antenna route. Always check the broadcast first.

How to watch Packers game?

You have several pathways, depending on your location, budget, and device.

How to watch, stream, and listen to Packers vs Cardinals Week 7

• TV: FOX (national) or CBS (local) (AZ Cardinals, Packers)
• Streaming: NFL+ (in-market mobile), NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube (Packers), Fubo with free trial (Fubo News)
• Radio: SiriusXM (Channels 138 or 381), Packers Radio Network (54 stations), Arizona Sports 98.7 FM (Packers, AZ Cardinals)
• Replays: NFL Game Pass, YouTube highlights, NFL Network (Packers — Ways to Watch)

How do I watch the Packers game on my phone?

The Arizona Cardinals confirm that NFL+ streams the game to mobile devices, but only if you’re in the local TV market and have granted location access. Alternatively, the Packers mobile app streams the radio broadcast within the Packers’ home market (Packers).

The pattern: mobile streaming is heavily restricted by location and device type. Don’t expect a universal mobile feed.

Why can’t I watch the Cardinals game today?

If you’re stuck with a blank screen, here are the most common reasons.

Why is the Cardinals game not on regular TV?

Blackout rules might apply. The NFL allows local stations to black out games if tickets aren’t sold out (though this is rare for a sold-out game like Week 7). More likely, you’re in a market where CBS or FOX chose a different game. The Arizona Cardinals advise checking local TV listings.

What to do if the game is blacked out?

If you’re out of market, you need NFL Sunday Ticket (via YouTube) to watch non-local games. The Packers specifically mention Sunday Ticket as an option. If you’re in-market but blacked out, try an antenna — sometimes the over-the-air feed is unaffected.

How to watch if out of market?

NFL Sunday Ticket by YouTube gives you every out-of-market Sunday afternoon game. For a single game, the Fubo News page notes that Fubo’s free trial could work if you’re in a region that carries the game.

The catch: no single streaming service covers every out-of-market scenario for free. You’ll need to test trials or pay for a Sunday Ticket plan.
