For the second time in three weeks, the Green Bay Packers will be featured during "America's Game of the Week" on FOX. Sunday's showdown with the New England Patriots is the featured game in the late afternoon timeslot on FOX in Week 9, so most of the country will get the game in their TV market.
Packers-Patriots is scheduled for a 3:25 p.m. CT kickoff from Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. FOX's top team of Kevin Burkhardt and (former Patriots quarterback) Tom Brady will be on the call for the network.
The TV broadcast map for the late afternoon timeslot on FOX (Packers-Patriots in red), via 506sports.com:
There are two competing games in the network: 49ers-Raiders is in blue, while Cardinals-Seahawks is in green. That means five NFL TV markets
won't get Packers-Patriots: Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Phoenix. The rest of the country -- basically every major market east of Denver -- gets Packers-Patriots.
Elsewhere in the NFC North, the Chicago Bears (Sunday night) and Minnesota Vikings (Monday night) play in primetime in Week 9. The Detroit Lions face the Miami Dolphins in the early Sunday timeslot on CBS, and the game will be broadcast to a local audience featuring the four NFC North markets (Green Bay, Minneapolis, Chicago, Detroit).
For those outside the viewing area, Packers-Patriots will be available on NFL Sunday Ticket via YouTubeTV.
