National Broadcast Maps for Week 9 of the NFL Season
Week 9 of the NFL season got underway on Thursday when the Pittsburgh Steelers took down the Tennessee Titans.
Now, the beef of the schedule is set to take place this afternoon, with multiple games potentially playing a factor in the final standings as we head towards the second half of the season. Before the games officially kick off, here is a look at the national broadcast maps for all of Sunday afternoon’s games. Per usual, the maps are courtesy of 506sports.com.
National Broadcast Maps for Week 9
CBS (Single)
- Red: Seattle Seahawks at Baltimore Ravens
- Blue: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Houston Texans
- Yellow: Chicago Bears at New Orleans Saints
- Orange: Arizona Cardinals at Cleveland Browns
- Green: Indianapolis Colts at Carolina Panthers (LATE)
In case things in Atlanta don’t go the Vikings’ way on Sunday, some fans in Minnesota will also be able to tune into the Seattle Seahawks taking on the Baltimore Ravens on CBS. Both teams sit atop their respective divisions, and a win this weekend will require a hard-fought battle between two of the top defenses in the league.
Then, the late CBS game will also be played in the Minneapolis area as the Indianapolis Colts head to Carolina and battle the Panthers. Carolina earned their first victory of the 2023 season last weekend by upsetting the Houston Texans at home, and they will hope to keep the good times rolling this weekend against Gardner Minshew and Co.
FOX (Early)
- Red: Los Angeles Rams at Green Bay Packers
- Blue: Washington Commanders at New England Patriots
- Green: Minnesota Vikings at Atlanta Falcons
Of course, the game on everyone’s mind in Minnesota takes place on FOX at noon. The Vikings travel to Atlanta to do battle with the Falcons on Sunday, and both teams will look very different from normal on offense.
Atlanta is debuting Taylor Heinicke as their starting QB, and they will be without WR Drake London. Meanwhile, the Vikings remain without WR Justin Jefferson, and Jaren Hall is set to make his first NFL start after Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles last weekend in Green Bay.
FOX (Late)
- Red: Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles
- Blue: New York Giants at Las Vegas Raiders
Just about everyone in the U.S. will be treated to the biggest game of the week. The Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles will meet in Philly on Sunday in a heavyweight NFC East battle. The 7-1 Eagles have jumped out to a comfortable lead in the division, but a win for the 5-2 Dallas Cowboys could get them back into the hunt.
