This is a great week for CBS and a not-so-great week for Fox. The marquee game on Fox features the Cowboys, but with the Lions at less than full strength, it’s not exactly a must-see. Now CBS has two great games. The early game shown throughout most of the country will be the Texans and Ravens and the late game that CBS has this week is Patriots-Eagles. Let’s get to what game you’ll see. As usual, thanks to 506Sports.com for the maps.
Fox Single Game (1:00 p.m. ET / 10:00 a.m. PT and 4:00 p.m. ET / 1:00 p.m. PT)
█ Dallas @ Detroit Kevin Burkhardt, Charles Davis
█ Atlanta @ Carolina Dick Stockton, Mark Schlereth
█ NY Jets @ Washington Kenny Albert, Ronde Barber
█ New Orleans @ Tampa Bay Thom Brennaman, Chris Spielman
█ Arizona @ San Francisco (4:00 p.m. ET / 1:00 p.m. PT) Chris Myers, Daryl Johnston
The Falcons will be looking to upset another NFC South rival. Carolina can’t lose to Atlanta if they want to make a run at the playoffs. No one should be subjected to Jets-Redskins, but a highly populated portion of the country will be. The Saints-Bucs game could be high scoring if New Orleans finds its offense. Arizona and San Francisco played a competitive game in their last matchup. The Niners will want to leave no doubt this time around.
CBS Early Game (1:00 p.m. ET / 10:00 a.m. PT)
█ Houston @ Baltimore Ian Eagle, Dan Fouts
█ Denver @ Minnesota Kevin Harlan, Rich Gannon
█ Buffalo @ Miami Spero Dedes, Adam Archuleta
█ Jacksonville @ Indianapolis Andrew Catalon, James Lofton
Everyone that has the ability should be tuning into Texans-Ravens. Unfortunately for some of the midwest and the mountain time zone, they’ll be stuck with Denver-Minnesota. That’s a defensive battle. Hope you like running attacks.
CBS Late Game (4:00 p.m. ET / 1:00 p.m. PT)
█ New England @ Philadelphia Jim Nantz, Tony Romo
█ Cincinnati @ Oakland Greg Gumbel, Trent Green
Romo and Nantz get the Super Bowl LII rematch. The Patriots are coming off a loss and a bye. The Eagles are just getting healthy. Only a small portion of the country is subjected to the Raiders-Bengals game.
