The sixth week of the NFL season arrives with the first slate of games that is missing teams that are on a bye week. From here until Week 14, we'll not have the full 16 games per weekend as every franchise will get a free Sunday to rest and heal injured players for the remainder of the season.

Among the best matchups of the weekend, the Dallas Cowboys and the New England Patriots will battle as both teams continue to push for a playoff spot. There's also another morning game, with the Miami Dolphins and the Jacksonville Jaguars traveling to London to play on Sunday.

If you are among the fans wondering how to watch the action live without cable, or subscriptions to other streaming platforms, worry not. Here's a complete guide to view the NFL's Week 6 games.

NFL Reddit stream: How to watch NFL Week 6 games for free?

Not anymore, as Reddit has banned the NFL streams subreddit due to copyright infringement. They also did the same with NBA and MMA subreddits.

The r/nflstream subreddit was illegal by all accounts, so Reddit shut it down. It was seemingly a move the platform made itself without any notice from the NFL. Reddit released the following statement after it shut down the subreddit:

“Our policy is to close the accounts of users, in appropriate circumstances, who have repeatedly been charged with copyright infringement. Sometimes a repeat infringement problem is limited to one user, and we close just that user’s account. Other times, the problem pervades a whole subreddit community, and we close the subreddit.”

How to watch NFL games for free in the USA?

There are a few ways to stream NFL games in the USA without Reddit. The recent trend of viewers moving to online platforms has created new ways for fans to watch football games.

The first way to watch games if you're a cable subscriber is on the channel's website. You can watch Monday Night Football on the ESPN app, for example, or the Sunday Night Football through the NBC Sports app. FOX/CBS games work the same way.

If you do not have cable, then you'll have to look for other options. First, you have to check out which channel your team is playing on, and then discover a streaming platform where you can watch those specific channels.

Here are some streaming platform examples on which you may find the games:

FuboTV: A seven-day free trial service that provides access to NFL Network programs like Good Morning Football, NFL Total Access and NFL GameDay.
Hulu: Seven-day free trial available
YouTube TV: Seven-day free trial available
DirecTV: Has the whole NFL Sunday Ticket, a package where you can watch all the out-of-market TV games.
