There isn’t a ton to write home about in the 1:00 window for FOX but most of the nation will get a matchup of two second-year quarterbacks as Trey Lance’s 49ers head to Chicago to take on Justin Fields’ Bears. The most interesting game here may be the Eagles trip to Detroit against the Lions, who will look to make a statement in Dan Campbell’s second year.

Kansas City Chiefs (0-0) at Arizona Cardinals (0-0) (Red): Jim Nantz, Tony Romo

Las Vegas Raiders (0-0) at Los Angeles Chargers (0-0) (Blue): Kevin Harlan, Trent Green

Both of these games are awesome showcases involving three of the four AFC West powerhouses. Jim Nantz and Tony Romo will be in the desert for Chiefs-Cardinals while the other game is a rematch of the Week 18 classic that saw the Raiders knock the Chargers out of the playoffs in overtime.

New York Giants (0-0) at Tennessee Titans (0-0) (Blue): Kevin Kugler, Mark Sanchez

The debut of FOX’s new top team will see Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen head to Minnesota for a key NFC North showdown between the Packers and Vikings. The other game in this window will feature the first game as head coach for Brian Daboll as the Giants head to Tennessee to try and slow down Derrick Henry and the Titans.

Sunday Night Football (NBC)

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-0) at Dallas Cowboys (0-0): Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth

This was the Kickoff Game last year and Tampa Bay won a thriller over Dallas so it makes sense the NFL put it back in primetime for Week 1. The venue shifts to Dallas this time as the Cowboys look to get revenge against the Buccaneers here.

Monday, September 12

Denver Broncos (0-0) at Seattle Seahawks (0-0): Joe Buck, Troy Aikman

The first Monday night game of the year will see Russell Wilson return to Seattle as a Bronco. Joe Buck and Troy Aikman make their Monday night debut after leaving FOX in a contest that will be simulcast on ESPN and ABC while the Manningcast returns for Season 2 on ESPN2.
