Super Bowl LIX: How to Watch the Kansas City Chiefs try to make History

The biggest sporting event of the year is set to take place this weekend, on February 9, 2025. That would be Super Bowl 59, which will see the NFC Champion Philadelphia Eagles on the AFC Champion Kansas City Chiefs. This year, it’s FOX’s turn to host the big game. CBS, FOX, and NBC all rotate who gets the Super Bowl; last year, it was CBS, and this year, it’s FOX. So next year it’ll be back to NBC.

The Super Bowl is the biggest event of the year, not just because its the championship game for the most popular sport in the US, but because of the commercials and halftime performances. A 30-second ad during the 2025 Super Bowl will cost $8 million. The main reason for this is because the best commercials air during the Super Bowl, so there’s a ton of competition, and loads of eyeballs to target. For halftime, the Super Bowl has Kendrick Lamar performing this year, which continues the NFL’s trend of having hip-hop artists perform at the big game. This will also be the first time Tom Brady has been in the announcers’ booth for a Super Bowl.

Who’s playing in the Super Bowl?

This year, the Kansas City Chiefs are just one game away from a three-peat. No team has ever won three straight Super Bowls, and no team has ever made it three straight Super Bowls. So the Chiefs have already made history. However the Philadelphia Eagles look to stop Mahomes and the Chiefs from winning their third straight Super Bowl.

Of course, the Eagles have unfinished business with the Chiefs, after losing to them at the start of this historic run. They had a nail-biting loss to the Chiefs in Super Bowl 57. Which was actually one of the closer Super Bowls in recent memory.

Most of the pundits are picking the Chiefs to win, but not by much. Most people are seeing this as a very close game, with Mahomes pulling it out at the end. Which would be a fitting ending for this Chiefs season, since they had so many close games throughout the season. Currently, the Chiefs are the betting favorite on Fanduel, at -1.5. That shows you just how close this game is likely to be.

What time does the Super Bowl start?

The Super Bowl will take place on February 9. Kick-off is set for 6:30 PM EST. This is the same time that it kicks off every single year.

However, since this is the biggest sporting event of the year, there will be many hours of pre-game coverage starting earlier in the day. And even some the day before the Super Bowl.

This year, the Super Bowl will be on FOX and Tubi. The three major networks that carry NFL games (CBS, FOX, and NBC) rotate who hosts the Super Bowl. And this year, it’s FOX’ turn to host the Super Bowl (last year, it was CBS, and next year will be NBC).

How To Watch Super Bowl 2025

There are many, many ways to watch the Super Bowl this year. Any streaming service that has CBS available will be a good option. You can also watch via an OTA antenna or Tubi TV, which might be the best place to watch the game. Since Tubi TV is a free, ad-supported streaming service, also known as a FAST streaming service.

OTA Antenna

FOX is a “local” channel, meaning that it is free. All you need to do is get an antenna and put it in your window to get it and a few other channels. Since you aren’t going to be paying monthly for this antenna, it’s the cheapest way to get NBC for the Super Bowl and beyond. It will also include channels like ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC, as well as a few others, depending on your market.

Amazon has a few great options for OTA Antennas that won’t cost a fortune. Like this one here, that is priced at $25.99. It offers 120-mile range too, which is going to be good for those who are in the sticks and might be far away from a particular market.

Fubo TV

Fubo TV is not cheap necessarily, but it does have a ton of channels available, which makes its $84.99 per month price, pretty good. But they do have some pretty good deals going on right now for a discounted first month of service.

For that $84.99 price tag, you are getting 213 channels included, as well as unlimited cloud DVR space. And in that 213 channels, you are getting all of your locals and that does include FOX. There is of course, a free trial available. So if you were looking to try it out before you purchase, you can do that too.

YouTube TV

This is going to be the most popular option, simply because of the features and its price. YouTube TV has all of the local channels in all (but a handful of) markets around the country. So it most likely has your local CBS affiliate.

YouTube TV also offers 85+ channels for $82.99 per month, making it cheaper than Fubo TV. But where it really shines is in its cloud DVR. You see, YouTube TV allows you to record everything since it offers unlimited cloud DVR. You can access it from anywhere, and all content stays in your DVR for nine months. That’s a feature that you will not find anywhere else.

Watch on Tubi TV

FOX owns Tubi TV, which is why they are making the Super Bowl free to watch on this platform. Generally, the NFL wants to make the Super Bowl as easy to watch as possible, so it gets as many people watching as possible. After all, advertisers are paying a whopping $8 million for just 30 seconds of ad time during the big game.

Tubi TV is ad-supported, so even watching video on demand titles, you’ll be seeing ads. But it is completely free, in fact you don’t even need to sign in to watch it.

Wrap Up

Whether you watch football or not, you’re going to want to watch Super Bowl 2025. There won’t be any other content on, as other networks know not to even try to compete with the Super Bowl. And there are plenty of other reasons to watch. A lot of people watch the ads, which the ads during the Super Bowl are some of the best of the year and most expensive. It’s reported that a 30-second ad during the Super Bowl this year is running $8 million.

On top of that, we have the Apple Music Halftime show, headlined by Kendrick Lamar. He has been teasing that his performance will include “storytelling” at the Caesar’s Super Dome in New Orleans. It’ll be a halftime show to never forget.
