Thursday Night Football 2013: Panthers vs Buccaneers preview, live stream, how to watch online [NFL game start time]

Thursday Night Football takes place tonight with the Carolina Panthers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers set to face off at the Raymond James Stadium. These are two teams that definitely need the win to try and improve on their stuttering seasons so far, and that alone should make for an interesting clash between two desperate teams.

The game will start at 8.25 p.m. ET and can be watched on the NFL network. Alternatively for those wanting to catch the game online there is a live stream link available via the link provided below.

Today's Thursday Night Football game is between two NFC South teams, and neither is above .500. They have a combined record of 3-9, although it is the Panthers who have won all three of those games.

The Buccaneers are 0-6 and one of the few teams in the league still without a win. Their season may well be gone right now, and they will need a massive turn around just to get themselves to a respectable level this season.

The Panthers meanwhile are 3-3 and are second in the division behind the 5-1 New Orleans Saints.

A win today for Carolina would allow them to keep pressure on the Saints, and also keep the Atlanta Falcons at arms distance in third place.
