The NFL schedule is rolling into Week 6 and the league's Sunday afternoon slate will regain a game after having a season-low 10 in Week 5.

The main difference? There are only two teams on bye in Week 6 (the Packers and Steelers) instead of four. Everything else is the same as it was in Week 5 — including yet another London game — so that means there will be just 11 games for NFL fans to follow during the main slate.

Per usual, CBS and Fox are going to broadcast the 11 afternoon games. This week, it will be Fox's turn to broadcast the national doubleheader — i.e. it can broadcast games in both the 1 p.m. ET and 4:25 p.m. ET windows in each market — while CBS will air just one game per market.

Fox has the advantage in terms of total games (6-5) and it also appears to have higher-quality matchups than CBS, as the undefeated 49ers and Eagles will also play on the network. The 49ers (vs. Browns) figure to carry the early slate while the Eagles (vs. Jets) may be tasked with doing the same on the late slate.

That said, the Lions-Buccaneers game could end up being the best game among Fox's six. That will go head-to-head with the Eagles-Jets game, which will get more national attention, but don't be surprised if Detroit-Tampa Bay is the better game.

As for CBS, the network's best game appears to be the Seahawks vs. Bengals game, as Cincinnati found some life against the Cardinals for what felt like the first time all season. That will draw a bulk of the network's coverage while CBS' lone late game, the Patriots-Raiders battle, will draw attention as well thanks to the Bill Belichick vs. Josh McDaniels battle.

Below are the full NFL coverage maps for Week 6, plus a list of major TV markets and the CBS and Fox games that will be presented in each on Sunday.

  • Cardinals at Rams (4:25 p.m. ET)

Sunday and Monday will once again have three stand-alone games, as the NFL is playing its third consecutive London game. This one will be between the Ravens and Titans and will begin at 9:30 a.m. ET. The Bills will host the Giants on "Sunday Night Football" in the other stand-alone game on NFL Sunday.

"Monday Night Football" has the potential to be the best of the prime-time games in Week 6, as the Chargers will host the Cowboys as each squad battles to stay in its respective division race. Chargers offensive coordinator Kellen Moore will be facing the Cowboys for the first time since his departure too, so that might give Justin Herbert some extra motivation to put together a great game and outplay Dak Prescott.
