With Washington coming off their biggest win in years, handing the Pittsburgh Steelers their first loss this season, a lot of eyes in the NFL have turned towards what is going on in D.C. Ron Rivera and his crew has now rattled off three-straight wins, and not only have they put themselves in a position to represent the NFC East in the 2020 postseason, but a spot as a wildcard team is no longer out of the question either.
It should go without saying that Washington’s game against the San Francisco 49ers holds some pretty big weight this weekend. Of course, a matchup between two 5-7 teams doesn’t warrant ‘Game of the Week’ status, but we now have two teams that are locked into a fight for the wildcard spot, and Washington needs to win every game that they can in order to keep a hold on the top spot in the NFC East.
So will you be able to watch this game in your area? According to a coverage map from 506 Sports, a decently wide array of viewers will be able to tune into this one, with much of the west coast getting this game over the Los Angeles Chargers bout with the Atlanta Falcons.
It’s also important to note that, since this game is being played out west, Washington gets an afternoon kick-off time, slated to start at 1:25 p.m. With two teams that have been closely connected via coaches, players, and trades over the past few years, this could be a heated matchup and will hold major weight on the final result of both clubs’ seasons. You won’t want to miss it.
