This is the Steelers’ official schedule as reviewed October 27. Late-season dates, times and networks are subject to change. Confirm the local broadcast assignment during game week.

Local channels and national cable channels

CBS and NBC numbers vary by address. Search for the game by team name, check the local station and confirm it is in your package. ESPN is channel 206 where included; NFL Network is channel 212 where included. NFL Network and RedZone are not substitutes for the full broadcast of every Steelers game.

Prime Video and other app games

The November 27 Denver game is currently listed for Prime Video. Check the separate app’s event listing and account entitlement; a DIRECTV subscription alone does not establish Prime access. Eligible local-channel streaming also depends on your provider, device and location.

For a regional CBS game outside your local coverage area, investigate the current NFL out-of-market options and blackout rules. Do not buy a different TV package before confirming that it actually changes access to the game.

Before kickoff

Recheck the schedule, test your login and set a recording with room for overtime where your plan supports it. If your guide shows another game, check regional coverage rather than relying on a nationwide channel list.
