NFL Week 16: How to watch, live stream the Bills and Patriots on CBS All Access
CBS All Access allows viewers to stream every NFL game on CBS 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.

Bills and Patriots on CBS All Access
Every game counts for both of these teams from here on out, and there's some bad blood in the very recent past between them. After Rob Gronkowski was suspended one game for injuring the Bills' Tre'Davious White well after the play, White and the Bills are out for blood. The Patriots just reclaimed the first seed in the AFC, but the Bills can play spoiler to that with just a little help from the Steelers. The Bills are fighting for their own playoff lives, as they're currently in over the Ravens. They're looking to preserve that spot in a tight AFC race.
The Patriots, coming off of a controversial win, could well be playing the rest of their season at Gillette with a win on Sunday. Their last two games are against the Bills and Jets, and then they have the playoffs to worry about. It won't be an easy path, but Tom Brady is nearly unbeatable at Foxboro in January. Should the Patriots win this game, they'll be in good shape going forward. They now are in the driver's seat, so now it's all about taking care of business.
