NFL’s late Sunday afternoon doubleheader window continues to get the most scrutiny and viewers

Associated Press  

When the NFL schedule gets released, fans and commentators obsess over how many prime-time appearances teams will make. “We made it a point with the league that we wanted to establish a stronger narrative in September.” Besides the Chiefs, Berson also has some strong NFC matchups for the late window, including Dallas at Philadelphia on Nov. 10 — one of three Eagles appearances in CBS’s doubleheader window — and Green Bay at the Los Angeles Rams on Oct. 6. The Falcons are at Philadelphia on Monday night on Sept. 16, host Kansas City on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” six days later and face Tampa Bay on “Thursday Night Football” on Oct. 2. SUNDAY NIGHT SURPRISE Last year, the odds of a Chicago-Houston matchup being on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” would have been staggering. NBC’s first six games feature strong quarterback matchups, especially the three in Week 1 with Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson visiting Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes in the Sept. 5 Kickoff Game; Green Bay’s Jordan Love taking on Philadelphia’s Jalen Hurts in Brazil the next night on Peacock; and the Rams’ Matthew Stafford facing Detroit’s Jared Goff on Sept. 8.
