    The Ravens suffered a heartbreaking collapse against the Dolphins last Sunday, while the Patriots edged out the Steelers to earn their first win of 2022.?
    The early Sunday game will be shown on Fox nationally and in the Baltimore and New England areas on live TV streaming services, but there may be cases where you’re blocked because of an internet location glitch or just want an added layer of privacy for streaming.
    There’s an option that doesn’t require subscribing to something like NFL Sunday Ticket or NFL Plus, or searching the internet for a sketchy website: a virtual private network, or?VPN. Here’s how you can watch the game from anywhere in the US with a VPN.?

    For Week 3 of the NFL season, the Ravens are taking on the Patriots at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. PT). The game is set to take place at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.?
    How to watch the Ravens vs. Patriots game online from anywhere using a VPN
    If you find yourself unable to view the game locally due to?incorrectly applied blackout restrictions, you may need a different way to watch the game — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea for when you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
    With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our?Editors’ Choice ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
    Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US and Canada, as long as you’ve got a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks, however: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

    Livestream the Ravens vs. Patriots game in the US
    This week’s Ravens vs. Patriots game is on Fox, so in addition to a VPN you’ll need a?live TV streaming service?that carries a local Fox affiliate that is broadcasting the game. The least expensive such service is Sling TV Blue. You’ll need to be subscribed to Sling Blue to be able to watch the game, and you’ll need to switch your VPN to the Boston or Baltimore areas, or one in a market like Phoenix that should be getting the game nationally. 506 Sports has a good guide for which locations are airing which games.

    Carries Fox local channels

    


    


    Among the live TV streaming services that carry local Fox stations, the cheapest is Sling TV Blue at $35 per month. Note that Sling is currently running a promotion where the first month of service is half-price ($17.50) for new subscribers.
    One important caveat: In our experience, Fox local affiliates will only be available if your billing address is in one of the?18 metropolitan areas covered in Sling’s agreement. If you’re outside of one of these areas, you’re probably better off going with one of the alternate services listed below.?

    Numerous other live TV streaming services carry local Fox stations as well, namely YouTube TV, Hulu Plus Live TV, DirecTV Stream and FuboTV. They all cost more than Sling TV, but they also carry more channels, including football-specific channels like Fox, ESPN, NFL Network and/or RedZone. Check out our live TV streaming channel guide for details.
    Quick tips
    You can watch the Ravens vs. Patriots if you are in the Seattle or Phoenix markets, for example.
    Sling TV

  • As noted above, Sling Blue is only an option if and when the ability to get Fox local affiliates is active on your account. You may want to verify that your billing address is eligible for that option before committing your credit card.?
  • With three variables at play — your ISP, video streaming provider and VPN — experience and success may vary.?
  • Sling Blue doesn’t offer the local Fox channel in Baltimore or Boston, so the best way to watch the game is through a market like Phoenix or Seattle.
