NFL Week 1 broadcast map 2023 covers Denver, Seattle, Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, and Phoenix. FOX, CBS, and NBC will showcase the games.
Chiefs will host the Lions in GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. The game will be aired all over the city and can watched online at NBC Sports Bay Area and California. Online streaming is also available on FuboTV.
You can try streaming it online for free but the regional restrictions might apply.
It will be interesting to witness the battle between these two teams this Thursday. Many experts across the country have predicted that the Lions will not win this game as the Chiefs stand at the top of the power ranking for this season.
If we look at the odds, the over/under is marked as 54 points with the Super Bowl defending champion Chiefs being a 6.5-point favorite against the Lions.
But the franchise had an equal record as an underdog last season which counted 6-6. The Chiefs are the most favorite for this season and will open the game at their home.
