Sunday night posits a dilemma for the dual NFL fan and concerned member of the American electorate. There is both a Sunday Night Football game starting at 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC (and also streaming online) and the second presidential debate beginning at 9 p.m. ET on pretty much every other channel and online, too.
You can watch Giants vs. Packers on ‘Sunday Night Football’ and the second presidential debate live online at the same time
The miracle of the internet means you can watch two great American events at the same damn time.

As much as you may not like it, you’ll have to make a big choice in November, but you don’t have to make a choice about what to watch on Sunday night. The only thing you have to worry about is which BIG SHOW you’ll put on the television and which one you’ll put on your second screen.
The Green Bay Packers host the New York Giants on Sunday night. It’s been a long time since we’ve had a viable prime time game this season, but this looks like it could be a pretty good one.
The Giants are desperate, threatening to bench their biggest star who is acting like a big baby. Admit it, you’re kind of watching to see if Odell Beckham Jr. does have another blow up.
Whispers of the mighty Aaron Rodgers and the Packers’ offense being less than their usual dominating selves swept through Green Bay early in the season, but Rodgers effortlessly threw four touchdowns against the Vikings in Week 3 to put that narrative to bed ... for a little while anyway.
Then of course there’s the debate, which also features a petulant monster that an organization is desperately trying to get some control over.
That’s a lot of compelling television. And you don’t have to miss a minute of either one.
If you want to watch both, just put one on your television and the other on your second screen. Here’s how:
