Our friends at 506 Sorts came up with these coverage maps to show you which games are being broadcast to which markets.
All of the games in FOX’s line up are on one map. For some reason the Houston and Charlotte market is getting the New York Giants road game against the St. Louis Rams. There is no obvious connection there. The Louisville market is getting the Minnesota Vikings game against the Miami Dolphins, so all those old Teddy Bridgewater fans can watch him play.
Surprisingly, the game between the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints is getting a lot of coverage even though the teams are pretty bad and the division is atrocious overall.
The Kansas City Chiefs-Pittsburgh Steelers game is far and away the game of the week. The rest of the coverage seems to be pretty localized to the relevant markets, or in the case of New Orleans, a game involving a divisional rival.
And if you live in the small portion of the country where the Buffalo Bills-Oakland Raiders game is not only relevant but being aired, you’re missing out on the clash between the Dallas Cowboys and the Indianapolis Colts.
