NFL Week 5 TV Coverage Maps

Thursday, Oct. 3

Thursday Night Football (Amazon Prime)

  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1) at Atlanta Falcons (2-2): Al Michaels, Kirk Herbstreit

Week 5 kicks off in Atlanta as the Buccaneers look to expand their NFC South lead by picking up a critical win over the Falcons. This marks the third primetime appearance in five weeks for Atlanta, which has received more national exposure after signing quarterback Kirk Cousins in the offseason.

Sunday, Oct. 6

NFL International Series (NFL Network)

  • New York Jets (2-2) at Minnesota Vikings (4-0) (9:30 a.m. ET in London): Rich Eisen, Kurt Warner

The international portion of the NFL schedule resumes in Week 5, with the first of three consecutive early windows in London. The first game that London gets will be its best as Aaron Rodgers and the Jets look to bounce back from a rough showing against Denver. They'll hope to hand the 4-0 Vikings their first loss of the year.

  • Las Vegas Raiders (2-2) at Denver Broncos (2-2) (Orange, 4:05 p.m. ET): Kevin Kugler, Daryl Johnston

FOX's singleheader slate isn't great in Week 5 so Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady will get a rare 4:05 assignment as they call 49ers-Cardinals from Levi's Stadium. Greg Olsen will also get a new partner for the week as Jason Benetti fills in for Joe Davis in Washington with the latter set to call FOX's MLB postseason coverage this weekend.

CBS (Early Window)

The other game here sees the Giants fly west to take on Seattle, which is coming off a barn-burner loss in Detroit on Monday night.

Sunday Night Football (NBC)

  • Dallas Cowboys (2-2) at Pittsburgh Steelers (3-1): Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth

NBC got a good one on Sunday night as one of the NFL's most historic rivalries takes center stage with the Cowboys taking on the Steelers in Pittsburgh. This is the second consecutive primetime appearance for Dallas, which appeared on Thursday Night Football in Week 4.
