For Pete's Sake

NFL fans in every state in the country will see Chiefs-Patriots game Sunday

The calendar has turned to October, and it’s hoodie weather in Kansas City.

Coincidentally, a person known for wearing hoodies will be in town this weekend. Coach Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots will take on the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

The game kicks off at 3:25 p.m. and will be broadcast on CBS (KCTV-5). It’s the network’s marquee game, which is evident in two ways.

First, CBS is bringing its top broadcast crew for the game: Jim Nantz, Tony Romo and Tracy Wolfson.

Also, every state in the country will see the game, which kicks off at the same time as the Bills-Raiders contest. Here is the map from 506Sports.com:
