The Week 6 NFL coverage map gives fans no choice of whether to watch Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers in the late afternoon window.
That's right — Fox is the network broadcasting games to regions in both afternoon windows this week, and the only one in the late window is when Green Bay plays in Tampa Bay. A great matchup, to be sure, but many fans might have to hate-watch it.

Unlike the last two weeks, CBS will be the network only broadcasting a single game this week. Fox gets a lot of games to choose from in its two-tiered slate, yet somehow a large portion of the country gets to watch Nick Foles face off with Teddy Bridgewater in Bears-Panthers. There are some more interesting 1 p.m. games, so it might be best for your sanity if on the early Fox map below, you're in a color other than red.
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.
