Yes, you can watch Eagles games on YouTube TV, but which channel depends on the game

YouTube TV carries the channels that broadcast Philadelphia Eagles games: CBS, Fox, and NBC. Most regular-season Eagles games air on one of these three networks. YouTube TV includes all three in its base package, so if you have an active subscription, you can watch the game live on the channel it airs on that week.

The specific channel rotates based on the NFL schedule. Sunday afternoon games often air on Fox or CBS. Sunday night games air on NBC. Monday night games air on ESPN, which YouTube TV also carries. You will need to check the NFL schedule or your local listings to see which channel is broadcasting the Eagles game you want to watch that week.

YouTube TV does not offer a dedicated Eagles channel or an NFL-specific add-on package. You watch through the standard broadcast networks included in your subscription.

Key Takeaways

  • YouTube TV includes CBS, Fox, NBC, and ESPN — the four networks that broadcast Eagles games during the regular season.
  • You do not need to buy an add-on package; Eagles games are part of the base YouTube TV subscription.
  • The channel that airs each game changes week to week based on the NFL schedule, so check your local listings before game time.
  • YouTube TV allows you to stream games on your phone, tablet, computer, or TV, and to record games for later viewing.

How to find which channel is showing the Eagles game this week

The easiest way is to open the YouTube TV app or website and search for "Eagles" or the opponent's name. YouTube TV will show you the upcoming game, the date, the time, and the channel it airs on. You can also check NFL.com or the official Philadelphia Eagles website for the weekly schedule.

Your local TV listings will also show the channel. If you live in the Philadelphia area, local CBS and Fox affiliates often carry Eagles games. If you live outside the region, the game may air on a national broadcast instead.

Streaming on different devices with YouTube TV

YouTube TV works on phones, tablets, computers, and smart TVs. read the YouTube TV app on your device, sign in with your account, and navigate to the channel broadcasting the game. On a smart TV, you can use the YouTube TV app if your TV supports it, or cast from your phone or computer to your TV using Chromecast or AirPlay.

You can also watch on a web browser by going to tv.youtube.com, signing in, and selecting the channel. YouTube TV streams in up to 4K resolution on supported devices, though most games broadcast in standard HD.

Recording Eagles games for later

YouTube TV includes unlimited cloud storage for recordings. When you find the Eagles game in the guide, select it and choose "Record." The game will be saved to your library and you can watch it anytime within nine months. You do not have to worry about storage limits or deleting old recordings to make room for new ones.

If the game airs at a time you cannot watch live, recording it is the simplest option. You can also use the YouTube TV app to set reminders so you do not forget when the game starts.

What to do if the game is blacked out in your area

Local blackout rules are set by the NFL and the broadcast networks, not by YouTube TV. If a game is blacked out in your region, it means the local broadcaster has exclusive rights to that game in your area, and YouTube TV cannot stream it to you even though you have a subscription.

Blackouts are rare for Eagles games because Philadelphia is a major market and games usually sell out or have local broadcast coverage. If you encounter a blackout, check whether the game is airing on a local Philadelphia station instead. You may be able to watch it through that station's app or website if you sign in with your YouTube TV credentials.

YouTube TV cost and what else is included

YouTube TV costs $72.99 per month as of the most recent pricing update, though this may change. The subscription includes over 100 channels, including the broadcast networks, cable sports channels like ESPN and Fox Sports, and regional sports networks in some areas.

You get unlimited DVR storage, the ability to watch on multiple devices at once, and the option to add premium channels like HBO Max or Paramount+ for an extra fee. YouTube TV offers a trial period so you can test the service before committing to a paid subscription.
