Cardinals vs. 49ers Week 3: Kickoff Time, TV Channel, and Streaming Options for NFC West Showdown

Cardinals vs. 49ers Week 3: Kickoff Time, TV Channel, and Streaming Options for NFC West Showdown

The NFL season enters Week 3, and an early-season NFC West battle is on tap as the Arizona Cardinals visit Levi's Stadium to take on the undefeated San Francisco 49ers.

San Francisco comes into Sunday with a 2-0 record, having opened the season with a win in Australia and then a commanding 35-13 victory over the Miami Dolphins in their home opener last weekend.

Brock Purdy and the 49ers offense have been firing on all cylinders, averaging 31 points per game while protecting the football behind a flawless offensive line.

The team will also lean on Christian McCaffrey and a suffocating defense that has allowed just 10 points per game through two weeks.

They will, however, be without star Nick Bosa, who suffered a calf injury in practice this week.

For those looking to watch the Cardinals vs. 49ers, here are the details: When: Sept. 27, 4:05 p.m. ET; Where: Levi's Stadium (Santa Clara, California); How to watch: Sling Select and Blue plans; TV channel: FOX.

Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan will face his former assistant Mike LaFleur for the first time this week; the Cardinals hired LaFleur as head coach ahead of this season. LaFleur previously worked under Shanahan from 2017 through 2020.

On the flip side, the Cardinals arrive at 1-1 after a frustrating 31-7 divisional loss against Seattle in Week 2. Arizona looks to reset behind Jacoby Brissett and bounce back by relying on tight end Trey McBride and an aggressive front seven to generate takeaways.

Here's what you need to know if you want to tune in to the Cardinals vs. 49ers game without cable.
