How to watch or stream Thursday Night Football’s Week 14 during the 2022 NFL season live online free without cable

Before the start of the 2022 season, this week’s Thursday night game was expected to be a banger with all sorts of playoff potential. The Las Vegas Raiders were expected to be a serious contender and the Rams were the defending Super Bowl champs. What could go wrong?

As it turns out, a lot for these two teams. Neither the Raiders nor the Rams have had a season that fans are going to want to remember. The Rams are in the cellar of the NFC West and the Raiders are 5-7 and in third in the AFC West. A victory over the Rams, though, could keep their playoff dreams alive. And, let’s face it, everyone loves a comeback story, especially late in the year.
