The NFL playoffs have arrived. After 18 weeks of regular-season action, Saturday kicks off football’s postseason with Joe Flacco and the 11-6 Cleveland Browns heading to Texas to take on rookie C.J. Stroud and the 10-7 Houston Texans in the playoff opener. 

The Texans enter the game as the AFC South champion, having won the division in Week 18 by beating the rival Colts on Saturday night and then benefiting from the Jaguars’ loss to the Titans on Sunday. 

Kickoff for Saturday’s game is called for 4:30 p.m ET (1:30 p.m. PT) on NBC. Here is how you can watch, stream and follow along.

How to watch Browns vs. Texans in the US

Saturday’s Browns-Texans game is on NBC, so your local NBC station will carry the game. In addition to cable, satellite and an over-the-air antenna — which lets you watch NBC for free — you can also watch the game live using a streaming service. The least expensive is Peacock Premium at $6 per month. Most live TV streaming services, including YouTube TV and Hulu Plus Live TV, also carry your local NBC station (see below), but they’re a lot more expensive.

You can also subscribe to NFL Plus, the NFL’s own streaming service at $7 per month, but streams are limited to just watching on a phone or tablet (not a TV).
