The Packers' Week 6 matchup with the Bengals will be broadcast on CBS on Sunday. Here's the TV map.
The Green Bay Packers host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 12 in Week 6 action. Two things to know from a TV viewing standpoint: the Packers are hosting but the game will be broadcast on CBS, and it's not the featured game on the network in the late afternoon window, which affects the viewing market.
The Packers-Bengals showdown is set for a 3:25 p.m. CT kickoff from Lambeau Field. CBS has Kevin Harlan and Trent Green on the call from Green Bay.
Some of the country will get the game live on CBS, including every viewing market in the NFC North and every viewing market in the AFC North. But many markets across the country will get a different game.
The TV broadcast map for the late afternoon timeslot on CBS (blue is Packers vs. Bengals, red is 49ers vs. Buccaneers):
The following NFL viewing markets get Packers vs. Bengals: Minneapolis, Green Bay, Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Nashville, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Baltimore.
The Vikings have a bye in Week 6, while the Lions play on Sunday night and the Bears play on Monday night -- ensuring the NFC North market gets Packers vs. Bengals.
For those outside the viewing area, Packers-Bengals will be available on NFL Sunday Ticket via YouTubeTV.
