Get ready for some serious Week 4 action because the Philadelphia Eagles are facing off against the Los Angeles Rams, and this game is getting the full national treatment! FOX is rolling out their top broadcast team for this one, which is huge considering both these NFC contenders are trying to rebound from tough losses. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET on Sunday, October 4th, live from Lincoln Financial Field.
FOX Goes Big For Two Teams Needing a Win
Seriously, FOX is not messing around. Kevin Burkhardt will be on play-by-play, and you know it’s a big deal when Tom Brady himself is stepping into the analyst booth. Their coverage of Eagles-Rams is going to hit almost everyone, represented by the big red areas on FOX’s single-game map. We’re talking Philadelphia, huge parts of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, a ton of the South, Midwest, West, and even the Rams’ home turf in Southern California. The widespread distribution for this game tells you everything about the national interest surrounding these two teams, even as they look to get back on track.
Both squads are coming into this game feeling the heat. The Eagles are trying to shake off a rough 27-7 loss to the Chicago Bears. Meanwhile, the Rams are looking to recover from their own 30-26 defeat against the Denver Broncos. You know they’ll be scrapping hard to turn things around this Sunday.
Your Full Week 4 National Broadcast Guide
Beyond the Eagles-Rams showdown, Week 4 is stacked with games you won’t want to miss. Thursday night kicks things off with the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Cleveland Browns at 8 p.m. ET on Prime Video, featuring Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit. Sunday morning, get up early for the Indianapolis Colts vs. Washington Commanders in London at 9:30 a.m. ET on NFL Network with Dave Pasch, Kurt Warner, and Jason Kelce on the call. That game also airs locally on WRTV/ABC in Indianapolis and WTTG/FOX in Washington. Then, Sunday night brings the Detroit Lions at the Carolina Panthers at 8 p.m. ET on NBC with Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth. Finally, Monday night caps it all off with the Atlanta Falcons at the New Orleans Saints at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN, called by Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.
FOX isn’t just showing the big game, though. They can only show one regional game in each market. So, if your area isn’t red for Eagles-Rams, you might be catching the Dallas Cowboys at the Houston Texans (blue areas with Kenny Albert and Greg Olsen), the Green Bay Packers at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (green areas with Chris Myers and Jonathan Vilma), or the New York Jets at the Chicago Bears (yellow areas with Tim Brando and Drew Brees). Some late-game orange areas, like Minnesota and South Florida, will get the Miami Dolphins at the Minnesota Vikings with Kevin Kugler and Daryl Johnston, but if you’re in an orange zone, you won’t see an early FOX game.
CBS has a full slate too, starting with four early games: the New England Patriots at the Buffalo Bills (red areas with Ian Eagle and Ross Tucker), the Arizona Cardinals at the New York Giants (blue areas with Spero Dedes and Adam Archuleta), the Jacksonville Jaguars at the Cincinnati Bengals (green areas with Tom McCarthy and Robert Turbin), and the Tennessee Titans at the Baltimore Ravens (yellow areas with Chris Lewis and Luke Kuechly). Then, for the late window, CBS has three more: the Kansas City Chiefs at the Las Vegas Raiders (red areas with Jim Nantz and J.J. Watt), and the Denver Broncos at the San Francisco 49ers (blue areas with Kevin Harlan and Trent Green).
It’s a monster Week 4 for football fans, with national coverage bringing some huge matchups right to your screen. Both the Eagles and Rams are desperate to turn their early season around, so expect fireworks when Brady and Burkhardt call the action this Sunday!
