NFL Week 7 2017: Broadcast map
By John Buhler
It will be Week 7 in the NFL this week. Only two teams have byes, so there will be 15 games on tap. Here are the broadcast maps for the Sunday games.
The NFL is ready for another exciting week. Week 6 was all about the road underdog pulling off the upset. Who saw the Miami Dolphins beating the Atlanta Falcons in Atlanta or the New York Giants getting the best of the Denver Broncos at Mile High on Sunday Night Football?
This week, there will be 15 games with only two teams on byes. Those two teams will be the Detroit Lions and the Houston Texans. There will be three nationally televised games. Thursday Night Football will be between the Oakland Raiders and the Kansas City Chiefs. That will be on CBS, the NFL Network and streaming on Amazon.
Sunday Night Football will be in Foxborough, as the New England Patriots will host the Atlanta Falcons in a Super Bowl 51 rematch. NBC will have the telecast. Monday Night Football will be between a pair of NFC East rivals in the Washington Redskins and the Philadelphia Eagles. ESPN will have that telecast.
Here are the broadcast maps for the 12 games being shown on either CBS or FOX on Sunday afternoon in Week 7. Maps are by 506Sports.com.
