Who Is Playing Thursday Night Football in Week 7? How To Watch TNF, Stream NFL Game

Who Is playing Thursday Night Football in Week 7 of the 2024 NFL season? Bruce looks at the TNF schedule, how to watch TNF, and where stream the TNF game.

Six up, six down. We've had a nice stretch of Thursday Night games in recent weeks as last week's game marked the third straight week we had a one-score game entering the fourth quarter.

Hopefully Week 7's Thursday Night Football game is as exciting as what we've had in recent weeks. This week is an inter-conference match-up, as the 3-3 Denver Broncos travel to the bayou to play against the 2-4 New Orleans Saints.

This piece will highlight the critical matchups and start time for Thursday night's game this week.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:

 

Who is Playing on Thursday Night Football?

It's the Sean Payton Bowl this week as the current head coach of the Denver Broncos faces his old team he won a championship with in the New Orleans Saints for the first time in his head coaching career.

Denver sits solidly at .500 this season largely due to their their solid offensive line and great defense. The Broncos' defense has done solid work at making games competitive for rookie quarterback Bo Nix, as all three of Denver's losses have come by one possession each.

New Orleans, meanwhile, cooled off substantially after their blistering 2-0 start. The Saints averaged 45.5 points per game in their first two matchups but have unfortunately fallen down to earth in the last four games, with a comparatively paltry 19 points per game in that span.

 

When and How Can I Watch The Game?

Week 7's Thursday Night Football game is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. EDT.

The game will be streamed on Amazon Prime Video. If you are not already a Prime Video subscriber, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial. If you are only interested in the streaming options, the going rate is $8.99/month, with a rate of $14.99/month if you want all services offered through Amazon Prime beyond video streaming.

Additionally, you can watch the game through the NFL+ app for $6.99/month. The downside of this option is that you'd only be able to watch it on a computer, phone, or tablet. If that is how you prefer consuming media, it is cheaper unless you opt for the 30-day trial of Amazon Prime Video.

 

Who is Going to Win?

Denver is a solid road favorite this week, being favored by three points over the home New Orleans Saints.

It makes sense for Denver to be favored, given the state of the Saints. New Orleans has experienced a ton of injuries in the past couple of weeks, primarily on offense. In recent weeks, the Saints have had injuries to quarterback Derek Carr, tight end Taysom Hill, and wide receivers Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed. All of those injuries line up with a solid Denver defense that may be overwhelming for rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler.

Denver's offense has been impotent at times this season, though. Their running game has been poor through the season, ranking bottom-10 in the league in rushing yards per game. Nix has shown flashes of solid quarterbacking this season, but flashes of fearful passing as well with his average target depth being impossibly low at times. If New Orleans can get a pass rush through a solid offensive line, they can turn this game into a close one for the fourth straight Thursday.
