For Pete's Sake

There are five marquee NFL games in Week 11. All five will be on TV in Kansas City.

This is a rarity for the NFL, but there are three great prime-time pairings in Week 11.

Things kick off Thursday with an NFC West showdown between the Cardinals and Seahawks, who are both 6-3. It ends Monday night with the 6-3 Rams facing the 7-3 Buccaneers in Tampa, Florida, on ESPN.

And, of course, there is the “Sunday Night Football” matchup between the 8-1 Chiefs and 6-3 Raiders in Las Vegas. That game kicks off at 7:20 p.m. and will be shown on NBC (Channel 41). Al Michaels, Cris Collinsworth and Michele Tafoya will work the game.

On Sunday afternoon, Kansas City viewers will get to see three other games, including that day’s two marquee contests. It begins at noon with the 6-3 Titans at 6-3 Ravens on CBS (Channel 5) with Jim Nantz, Tony Romo and Tracy Wolfson on the call.

At 3:25 p.m., the game between the Packers (7-2) and Colts (6-3) from Indianapolis will be shown on Fox (Channel 4) in Kansas City. Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and Erin Andrews are the broadcasters for that game. That trio will also work Thursday night’s Seahawks-Cardinals game.
