Seattle Seahawks (2-2) at New Orleans Saints (1-3) (Yellow): Brandon Gaudin, Matt Millen
FOX’s early window features a pair of first-place showdowns in the NFC South and NFC North. The Buccaneers’ game will get most of the coverage nationally while Bears-Vikings is the clear B game in this quartet.
Dallas Cowboys (3-1) at Los Angeles Rams (2-2) (Red): Kevin Burkhardt, Greg Olsen
Philadelphia Eagles (4-0) at Arizona Cardinals (2-2) (Blue): Chris Myers, Robert Smith
FOX’s two best games are both in this window but the vast majority of the country will get Cowboys-Rams. Eagles-Cardinals is a good enough game to lead the window but will not be seen outside of local markets.
Sunday Night Football (NBC)
Cincinnati Bengals (2-2) at Baltimore Ravens (2-2): Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth
The Bengals make their first Sunday night appearance of the season as they hit the road to take on the Ravens in a critical AFC North matchup. The quarterback matchup of Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson is probably the best of the week.
Monday, Oct. 10

Las Vegas Raiders (1-3) at Kansas City Chiefs (3-1): Joe Buck, Troy Aikman
This AFC West clash could be epic as the Raiders look to avoid falling into a 1-4 hole during a trip to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Chiefs. There is no Manningcast this week as Peyton and Eli are off until Week 7.
