NFL Week 1: How to watch, live stream the Jaguars and Texans on CBS All Access
CBS All Access allows viewers to stream every NFL on CBS game in their local market
Want to watch the NFL on CBS but don't have cable? CBS All Access has partnered with the NFL so you can stream local market games each Sunday to your computer, tablet or OTT device. It's a concerted effort to allow viewers to watch football wherever they're at, all without needing a cable or satellite subscription (or even a television) in your local market.
Obviously CBS All Access is about more than streaming football (although it doesn't have to be). For as low as $5.99 a month, the service allows subscribers to stream hundreds of hit shows. The real benefit, however, lies in being able to watch CBS live wherever you are. If you got roped into a wedding, you're stuck at a baby shower or you're just a good mom or dad and want to be at your kid's soccer game on Sunday, you can stream games directly to your tablet or laptop.

Jaguars vs. Texans on CBS All Access
The Jacksonville Jaguars and the Houston Texans are trying to make waves in the AFC South, where it has been proven time and time again that anything can happen. While the Jaguars are in the midst of an identity crisis of sorts while they decide if they want to commit to Blake Bortles as their starter, rookie running back Leonard Fournette is hoping to make that question moot. The college phenom is trying to make his brand in the NFL, and with Marqise Lee and Allen Robinson on the outside, the Jaguars have quietly assembled a very strong offensive unit. Unfortunately, uncertainty at quarterback tends to cast a huge shadow over talent, and that's been the case this offseason for Jacksonville. Bortles will seek to prove he's earned his slot with a win over the reigning division champs, as Houston tries to defend their throne.
Houston is following the mold that the Denver Broncos established during their Super Bowl run: Build a defense and the rest will follow. After trading up for quarterback Deshaun Watson, Houston has been adamant that he will not be rushed into the starting gig over Tom Savage. Houston's defense gets its best piece back in J.J. Watt, who has been absolutely amazing in assisting with Hurricane Harvey relief efforts. The Texans are hoping that, for the first time, Watt and Jadeveon Clowney can play a full season together. On paper it's one of the scariest defensive line tandems in the NFL, but both players need to stay healthy. Clowney broke out of his shell in 2016, so it could be a long season for quarterbacks on Houston's schedule.
