The Minnesota Vikings are in the midst of their bye week.
As a result, Vikings fans are able to kick back and relax for the second consecutive Sunday. There are plenty of great matchups to tune into as well. Here is a look at the NFL broadcast maps for Week 13 as the games approach. Per usual, the maps are courtesy of 506sports.com.
NFL Broadcast Maps for Week 13
CBS (Single)
- Red: Denver Broncos at Houston Texans
- Blue: Arizona Cardinals at Pittsburgh Steelers
- Green: Indianapolis Colts at Tennessee Titans
- Yellow: Los Angeles Chargers at New England Patriots
- Orange: Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (LATE)
The Denver Broncos are one of the hottest teams in the NFL right now, being winners of four consecutive games. This weekend, they are set to travel to Houston and take on an up-and-coming Texans team that has playoff aspirations this season.
C.J. Stroud has been putting together one of the best rookie QB seasons in NFL history, and if Houston is able to win this game, they are in great position to continue climbing up the AFC standings. Vikings fans across Minnesota and much of the country will be able to tune into the game at 12 PM.
FOX (Early)
- Red: Detroit Lions at New Orleans Saints
- Blue: Miami Dolphins at Washington Commanders
- Green: Atlanta Falcons at New York Jets
The early slate on FOX features a game that is very prevalent for the Vikings and their playoff hopes this season. The 8-3 Detroit Lions will play host to the 5-6 New Orleans Saints on Sunday, and outside of the east coast, everyone will be able to tune into the game.
This game could impact Minnesota in a variety of ways. If the Lions win, Detroit will take a commanding three-game lead in the NFC North, but if the Saints win, they will move to a tie with the Vikings for that No. 6/7 seed in the NFC. It’s a “pick your poison” match for Minnesota.
FOX (Late)
- Red: San Francisco 49ers at Philadelphia Eagles
- Blue: Cleveland Browns at Los Angeles Rams
- Grey: No Game
The game of the weekend takes place during the late slate on FOX. The Philadelphia Eagles will host the San Francisco 49ers in a rematch of last season’s NFC Championship Game. Both teams are once again near the top of the NFC as Philadelphia sits at 10-1 while San Francisco is 8-3.
A win for the 49ers would ensure that they remain in the No. 2 seed in the conference, and it would also put added importance for Philly’s Week 14 game against the Dallas Cowboys. If the Eagles were to lose, Dallas would sit just one game behind them for the lead in the NFC East.
