Television coverage for week 9, Giants at Pats
Not surprisingly FOX uses its second and last opportunity to broadcast the Patriots game to a rather extensive audience this week. The game in Foxboro against the Giants gets their top billing, with the announcing crew of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman calling the late afternoon game. The Pats game will be shown on FOX stations throughout the northeast, southeast and southwest from Maine to New Mexico.
The other big late game on FOX is the Packers at Chargers; that will be shown in markets from Ohio west to the Pacific. Arizona and Missouri get stuck with the Rams - Cardinals snoozefest, while the Bay area and Nashville get excluded from any late game on FOX due to the NFL rules regarding the Raiders and Titans playing late games at home.
