The 2024 NFL season is in full swing, with football fans tuning in Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday to watch their favorite teams. Even though NFL Sunday Ticket is gaining popularity, the NFL coverage map is a guide all football fans need.

While every NFL game is on television, many are on at the same time. As a result, TV networks and league officials agree to have certain teams broadcasted in certain markets. The NFL TV map shows you what games are on in your area. The NFL broadcast map changes each week, and we’ll provide updates throughout the season.

New York Jets @ Buffalo Bills – CBS – 1:00 PM ET – Jim Nantz and Tony Romo

Josh Allen is the current MVP favorite, and a productive win over the Jets could essentially etch his name on the trophy. Yet, Aaron Rodgers has been playing better lately, and the Jets could make this tougher than expected.

Carolina Panthers @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers- CBS – 1:00 PM ET – Ian Eagle and Charles Davis

Can Bryce Young maintain his recent success? After the Buccaneers lost to the Cowboys on Sunday night, Tampa Bay better hope the Panthers don’t bring their best. While their win totals are drastically different, this inner-divisional matchup could be much better than expected.

Tennessee Titans @ Jacksonville Jaguars – CBS – 1:00 PM ET – Spero Dedes and Adam Archuleta

Both three-win teams are vying for top draft picks instead of playoff spots, and neither one has their starting quarterback left. That makes this one unpredictable. Yet, this AFC South matchup also won’t be too fun to watch, with neither team having anything to play for.

Miami Dolphins @ Cleveland Browns – CBS – 4:05 PM ET – Andrew Catalon, Tiki Barber, and Jason McCourty

This is a must-win game for the Dolphins. Meanwhile, the Browns are just looking to put some good film on tape ahead of next season. With Dorian Thompson-Robinson back in the starting lineup, Miami shouldn’t have any trouble getting a convincing victory.

Dallas Cowboys @ Philadelphia Eagles – FOX – 1 PM ET – Joe Davis and Greg Olsen

The Cowboys have scratched and clawed their way to seven wins, which is something no one expected once Dak Prescott went down with a season-ending surgery. The Eagles are still jockeying for the top seed in the NFC, which means they have to bring their A-game.

Indianapolis Colts @ New York Giants – FOX – 1 PM ET – Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma

The Giants are one of the NFL’s worst teams, and the Colts still have very slim playoff hopes. Indianapolis is desperate for a win, and while New York is too, they don’t have the talent to pull out a surprise win.

Las Vegas Raiders @ New Orleans Saints – FOX – 1 PM ET – Kevin Kugler and Daryl Johnston

Can the Raiders get their fourth win of the season? Playing a Saints team that still won’t have Derek Carr gives Las Vegas a fighting chance. With Antonio Pierce still hoping to show enough to keep his job for a second season, we anticipate the Raiders being at their best.

Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings – FOX – 4:25 PM ET – Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady

A matchup that could have big playoff implications, both the Packers and Vikings are playing well this season. Minnesota can claim a first-round bye if they win their last two games, but Green Bay will do their best to ruin the Vikings’ chances.
