For Pete's Sake

The Chiefs-Dolphins game will air in a large portion of the United States

If familiarity breeds contempt, then Chiefs fans may soon be sick of Jim Nantz and Tony Romo.

That duo is CBS Sports’ top broadcast team for NFL games and they work with reporter Tracy Wolfson. They will call Sunday’s Chiefs-Dolphins game from Miami and are scheduled to work the Chiefs’ game next week at New Orleans.

The Chiefs are the NFL’s most high-profile team, so it makes sense that Nantz and Romo would be in the booth for Sunday’s game. Although there are four games on CBS that kickoff at noon this Sunday, most of the nation will see the Chiefs-Dolphins contest.

Here is the broadcast map, courtesy of 506Sports.com:

The Chiefs game on CBS will be seen in the light red areas; The Colts-Raiders game is dark blue; Broncos-Panthers is orange; Texans-Bears is green; Titans-Jaguars in light blue; Jets-Seahawks is yellow.
