There's life in the Steelers yet. The Black and Gold were down and out just over a week ago, but a stunning display has put the league back on notice. They're in action at the Hard Rock Stadium, which welcomes back Tua Tagovailoa after three games out - three games the Dolphins have lost. Read on as we explain how to watch a Steelers vs Dolphins live stream online from anywhere.

Mitch Trubisky led the game-winning drive that secured last weekend's upset win over the Bucs, but Kenny Pickett had looked very promising before having to leave the field with a concussion. Another victory could propel Pittsburgh up the AFC North standings, and Mike Tomlin has a big decision to make.

Despite the fact that both Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle rank in the top five in the league for receiving yards this season, Miami have slipped to 3-3 without Tua tossing the rock. It's a relief to see him back after his deeply distressing head injury, but he'll want to switch the focus to his play as quickly as possible.

One of the reasons Teddy Bridgewater and Skylar Thompson struggled in his absence is the state of the Dolphins O-line. Terron Armstead and Austin Jackson have been sorely missed, but there's hope for Mike McDaniel that at least one of them could play a part in this fixture.

Steelers vs Dolphins live stream: how to watch NFL in the US without cable

Fans can watch the Steelers vs Dolphins on NBC and Peacock TV in the US, with kick-off set for 8.20pm ET / 5.20pm PT on Sunday.

How to watch Steelers vs Dolphins without cable

Peacock costs $4.99 a month for an ad-supported version of the service that also offers live coverage of every big WWE event, EPL soccer, plus plenty more live sports. You also have the option of paying $10 a month for commercial-free coverage.

Alternatively, Sling TV is a fuller OTT service that's especially good for NFL fans.

The Sling Blue package offers local NBC and Fox channels in most major markets, as well as NFL Network, thereby covering off a large number of NFL games including both primetime and local broadcasts. The usual cost is $35 a month, but if you're new to the service you can get your first month for half-price.

An extra $15 a month for the combined Sling Blue + Orange bundle adds access to ESPN 1, 2 and 3 to your NFL viewing arsenal - as well as getting you a raft of other premium channels.

A costlier but even more thorough alternative is FuboTV, which includes NBC, Fox, CBS, ESPN, ESPN 2, ABC and the NFL Network - all the TV channels you need to tune into the NFL this season.

Prices start at $69.99 a month after a FREE FuboTV trial.

If you subscribe to Peacock, Sling or any other US streaming service and find yourself unable to access coverage because you're out of the country, consider using a VPN as outlined below - we rate ExpressVPN as the best of the best.

How to watch Steelers vs Dolphins from outside your country

If you're on holiday or away on business and you want to watch your country's coverage from abroad, then you'll need to use a VPN. This will help you dial in to a location back in your home country to avoid geo-blocks and regain access to the content and services you already pay for back home.

A VPN is generally perfect for this as it allows you to change your IP address so you appear to be in a completely different location when the big game is on.
