Week 6 in the NFL opened with Denver’s overtime win over Seattle on Thursday night, and the week’s international wrinkle came Sunday morning in London, where the Texans faced the Jaguars.
The schedule then shifts into the full Sunday slate, with four teams on bye: the Bengals, Dolphins, Vikings and Lions. That leaves 10 games for the day, including seven kicking off at 1 p.m. ET and three set for the late-afternoon window.
CBS has the doubleheader this week, which means every market will get two CBS games. FOX, meanwhile, carries a single game in each market, either in the early slot or the late one.
For the prime-time windows, NBC will carry Cowboys-Packers on Sunday night at 8:20 p.m. ET.
Monday night belongs to Commanders-49ers on ABC and ESPN, with kickoff set for 8:15 p.m. ET.
Here’s how the CBS and FOX coverage breaks down for Week 6, based on the maps from 506 Sports.
On CBS, the early window includes three games. Panthers-Eagles will be shown in the pink areas, Steelers-Buccaneers in the blue areas, and Jets-Patriots in the green areas.
CBS has two late games at 4:25 p.m. ET. Bills-Raiders will air in the pink areas, while Chargers-Chiefs is assigned to the blue areas.
FOX’s coverage is spread across four early games and one late game. Bears-Falcons will air in the pink areas, Saints-Giants in the blue areas, Ravens-Browns in the green areas, and Titans-Colts in the orange areas.
The late FOX game is Cardinals-Rams, the only 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff on that network, and it will be shown in the yellow areas.

Cardinals Head To L.A. With NFC West Pressure Suddenly Building
The Cardinals head to SoFi Stadium in Week 6 for their third NFC West game of the season, and the timing could hardly be more delicate. Four straight losses have turned a division matchup with the Rams into a test of staying power, while Los Angeles comes in at 2-3 and dealing with its own issue up front after losing left tackle Alaric Jackson to suspension.
Arizonas challenge gets a little harder with a key back unavailable, leaving the offense to find answers in a matchup that already carries extra weight in the standings. The game will air on FOX, with streaming available on Fubo, and for a Cardinals team trying to stop the slide, this trip feels like more than just another road division date. [Read more 🡒]
Marvin Harrison Jrs Texans Debut Gives Cardinals Fans A New Debate
Marvin Harrison Jr.s first game in Houston was a modest one, but it was enough to give Cardinals fans something to chew on. In his Texans debut against the Jaguars, the former Arizona wideout was used sparingly, playing 12 snaps and finishing with three catches for 34 yards as Houston eased him into the offense.
For Arizona followers, the more interesting part is what comes next. Harrisons limited role on Sunday was never likely to be the end of the discussion, especially after the trade that sent him and a sixth-round pick in 2027 to Houston for a 2027 second-rounder and seventh-rounder. The Texans expect his workload to grow, and every step up in usage will only deepen the debate over what the Cardinals gave up and what they might have to live without. [Read more 🡒]
Cardinals Suddenly Face A Backfield Test Against The Rams
An ankle injury has pushed Jeremiyah Love out of the Cardinals' Week 6 matchup with the Rams, leaving Arizona to adjust on the fly at running back. The loss stings because Love had been part of the backfield plan heading into a divisional-style test, and now the workload shifts toward veteran Tyler Allgeier, who is expected to handle the bulk of the snaps.
Matt LaFleur's update offers at least one small bit of reassurance for a roster already dealing with a short-term setback, since Love does not appear headed for injured reserve right now. Still, the Cardinals have to sort through the immediate question of how much of their ground game can survive without him against Los Angeles, and whether the next few days are enough to keep this from becoming a longer-term issue.
