NFL Week 8 full schedule

Week 8 of the 2020 NFL season begins on Thursday Night Football in Charlotte.

Twenty-eight of 32 NFL franchises will be playing this weekend in Week 8.

We are approaching the halfway point in the 2020 NFL season. Some teams will play their eighth game of the season, while others will be getting No. 7 on the campaign under their belts. Either way, narratives are being constructed around every team, good, bad and ugly. With Week 8 on the horizon, let’s find out who is playing who when and which teams will be on bye this week.

Thursday, Oct. 29 (8:20 p.m. ET)

• Atlanta Falcons at Carolina Panthers

Sunday, Nov. 1 (1:00 p.m. ET)

• Pittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens
• Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers
• New York Jets at Kansas City Chiefs
• Indianapolis Colts at Detroit Lions
• Tennessee Titans at Cincinnati Bengals
• Las Vegas Raiders at Cleveland Browns
• New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills
• Los Angeles Rams at Miami Dolphins

Sunday, Nov. 1 (4:05 p.m. ET)

• Los Angeles Chargers at Denver Broncos

Sunday, Nov. 1 (4:25 p.m. ET)

• San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks
• New Orleans Saints at Chicago Bears

Sunday, Nov. 1 (8:20 p.m. ET)

• Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles

Monday, Nov. 1 (8:15 p.m. ET)

• Tampa Bay Buccaneers at New York Giants

Arizona Cardinals, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars and Washington Football Team are on bye.

Thursday Night Football this week will be in Charlotte, North Carolina, as the Carolina Panthers will host the Atlanta Falcons in an NFC South rivalry game. While Carolina has an outside shot at the postseason, Atlanta has already fired its head coach and is very much ready to see what 2021 has in store for its struggling football team. We should still expect a competitive game, though.

Sunday, Night Football gives us another dandy, as the Philadelphia Eagles will host the Dallas Cowboys for who will be the frontrunner for the No. 4 seed in the NFC playoff picture. Yes, the winner of the awful NFC East will get to host a playoff game in a few months. Unless one of these teams catches fire, expect potentially a sub-.500 team to host a No. 5 seed in the playoffs.

Monday Night Football could be a lopsided affair, as the New York Giants will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While the Buccaneers are hoping 2020 gives their their first playoff berth in 13 years, the Giants are hoping a home upset victory over Tampa Bay gets them one step closer to maybe contending for an NFC East division crown. No, we cannot rule out the Giants just yet in the East.
