The NFL season opener is here, but fans may struggle to watch it as usual. The first Thursday Night Football game will be played on Wednesday, Sept. 9, featuring a Super Bowl rematch between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots.

This unusual schedule change affects Amazon Prime Video's streaming plans for Week 1. Normally, Thursday Night Football games stream exclusively on Amazon Prime, but this week they are switching to Netflix.

The Los Angeles Rams will face off against the San Francisco 49ers in Australia on Sept. 10 at Melbourne Cricket Ground. This game kicks off at 8:35 p.m. ET and can be streamed on Netflix for those who have a subscription, starting at $8.99 per month with ads.

After Week 1, Amazon Prime Video will resume streaming Thursday Night Football games in Week 2 and onwards. The full schedule is listed below:
