NFL Week 8 preview: 5 games you can’t miss this weekend

Week 8 of the NFL season promises thrilling matchups, with elite offenses facing elite defenses and malfunctioning defenses meeting elite offenses. The Chicago vs. Seattle showdown on Monday night is a fitting climax to an exciting slate of games. Here are five must-watch NFL Week 8 games and where to stream them.

1. Vikings at Lions - Sunday, 1 p.m. ET, FOX/Fox One

The undefeated Vikings face the struggling Lions. The Vikings' defense is strong, but their offense has been lacking, while the Lions' offense is dynamic, and their defense is struggling. Watch on FOX/Fox One or via IPVanish.

2. Ravens at Bills - Sunday, 1 p.m. ET, CBS/Paramount+

Both teams boast outstanding offenses and dreadful defenses. Lamar Jackson's return from injury is uncertain, but the Ravens are struggling, while the Bills have fresh legs after a bye week. Check out CBS/Paramount+ or use IPVanish.

3. Chargers at Rams - Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET, FOX/Fox One

The Los Angeles rivalry is shaping up to be an expensive box office flop, but it should be entertaining nonetheless. The Chargers are now the only winless team in the NFL, while the Rams had a strong preseason. Catch it on FOX/Fox One or stream via IPVanish.

4. Chiefs at Broncos - Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET, CBS/Paramount+ (U.S.), FREE on 5 (U.K.), FREE on Virgin Media Play (Ireland)

The AFC West rivals are on different paths. The Chiefs had a tough time against the Seahawks last week, while the Broncos showed improvement against the Cardinals. Both teams have made strides since then. Watch on CBS/Paramount+ or stream for free on 5 (U.K.) and Virgin Media Play (Ireland).

5. Bears at Seahawks - Monday, 8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN, ESPN2 & NFL Network/ESPN Unlimited

The Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks clash in a potential precursor to the NFC Championship. The Bears' offense is elite, while the Seahawks' defense is formidable. With Caleb Williams returning from injury and Jaxon Smith-Njigba leading the Seahawks' offense, this game could be a preview of the NFC Championship. Watch on ESPN, ESPN2, or NFL Network/ESPN Unlimited.
