The current top teams include the Cincinnati Bengals, the San Francisco 49ers, the Buffalo Bills, and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Let’s get into everything you need to know for Super Bowl LVII.

How to Watch Super Bowl LVII
With Cable
There are various ways you can watch the Super Bowl in 2023; as long as you have access to FOX, you’re all set. For the Spanish-speaking community, watch Super Bowl LVII on FOX Deportes; the network includes Spanish-language commentary. Although, keep an eye out for future games because CBS, NBC, ABC, and FOX have a rotation on which network broadcasts the game.
You shouldn’t have trouble finding FOX as it’s widely available among most cable, satellite, and live TV streaming services. Likewise, FOX Deportes is also widely available, but sometimes a subscription to a TV plan is needed to access it.
Digital Antenna
Most people skip this option, but it’s still available. With a digital antenna, you can access Super Bowl LVII and other media if you’re close to a FOX broadcast network. With this, FOX Deportes is unavailable. If you’re entertaining this option, a digital antenna typically costs between $20-$60, and plenty are 4K-capable.
