During the Super Bowl coverage NBC is not requiring authentication, so anyone can stream the programming. Typically, the NBC streaming service requires viewers sign in with the username and password associated with their TV service provider.
Super Bowl coverage is available to stream on PCs, tablets, and smartphones via the NBC Sports Live Extra website or through the NBC Sports Live Extra app for Android and Apple tablets. Live viewing of the actual Super Bowl game on smartphones, however, is limited to Verizon FiOS customers with the NFL Mobile app and “The More Everything Plan.”
Steaming on Windows and Mac PCs
Visit the NBC Sports Live Extra website and simply choose Watch Live Now. Live coverage does not require authentication.
