Watch Broncos vs Panthers Showdown, Halftime Show Online

Despite some high-profile on-field talent – Peyton Manning of the Denver Broncos and Cam Newton of the Carolina Panthers, and a fairly close game – all this wasn’t enough for a Super Bowl TV record for CBS.

TV: Watch Broncos face off against the Seahawks on your local CBS TV channel. While many people experienced pristine streams (this reporter’s CBSSports.com stream worked perfectly for the full four hours, even with someone else streaming TV in another room), there were a few snafus right around kickoff, and some streamers ended up not being able to see 20 minutes or so of the game.

Anyone who wanted to stream the game could have watched the game on their computer or tablet but with the world moving to streaming boxes like, Roku, Xbox One, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, and Google’s Chromecast. That is, unless they go the somewhat ethically questionable route of using a virtual private network or proxy to make their web traffic look like it’s coming from inside the US. There are plenty of ways to watch the Super Bowl this year, as well as keeping up with everything heading into the big game, and we have some great apps to help out.

Beyond the game, Super Bowl 50 will feature some major star power. Yes, that’s right, it’s Super Bowl time again.

If you want to watch the American broadcast, you can use VPN software to pretend you’re located in the U.S., and use any of the options above. If you’re trying to watch the game on your phone as you bus home from work (God bless you), you’ll need Verizon Wireless coverage. In the USA, it’ll be shown on CBS, for which you’ll need cable; in the United Kingdom it’ll be available either on Sky or BBC 2. Those who live in the United States of America can directly search for the CBS Sports App page on their iPad, subscribe and watch live streaming of the game. They charge you a $5 subscription fee for a month and later $8 per month to add a dedicated VPN service, but after a free week of enjoyment post subscription.

If you tried streaming Super Bowl 50 yesterday, February 7, you were probably disappointed with the outcome of that effort. The carrier, which the nation’s biggest by number of subscribers, has an exclusive pact with the National Football League to stream games to smartphones.
