The Packers/Vikings game is shown in red.If you are in the blue area, your game on CBS will be the Arizona Cardinals visiting the Los Angeles Chargers. (Hallmark doesn’t make cards for that, sorry.) You’ll still be able to find the game on YouTube TV Sunday Ticket if you have it.CBS seems to be going all out for this one, as their crew for their NFL Today pre-game show will be setting up shop in the Twin Cities for this one, and the game itself will be called by their #1 team in the booth, which now features Jim Nantz and J.J. Watt, who has replaced Tony Romo while Romo deals with his. . .issues.The Vikings will be on CBS for this one, and then they won’t be on CBS again until they come back from their bye week when they host the Indianapolis Colts at U.S. Bank Stadium in Week 7. All of their games in Weeks 2 through 5 are slated to be on the FOX family of networks.So, when you’re getting ready to watch the game on Sunday afternoon, be sure to remember that the game starts at 3:25 PM Central time, not at noon, and that the game is on CBS. We’ll have an Open Thread over in the Feed for folks to talk about the early games that are happening on Sunday as a bit of a warm-up for the main event.
