chongli Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) I know this is a sensitive time for everyone, especially Damar's family and the team. Still, the TV announcers and crews are getting ready for this weekend's games and many have been announced. They have to prepare as if there will be games this weekend. Below is what is set so far. Also, the maps may will not be issued tomorrow (Wednesday). At most, the FOX maps may be ready, but CBS is still up in the air regarding everything. [UPDATE: FOX hasn't even pushed its assignments to the listings services as of Wednesday morning, so no maps at all today (Wednesday).] NATIONAL BROADCASTS: Saturday 4:30 ET: Kansas City at Las Vegas (ESPN/ABC) Steve Levy, Louis Riddick, Dan Orlovsky (https://www.raiders.com/news/game-preview-raiders-finish-out-regular-season-against-the-chiefs-nfl-week-18) Saturday 8:15 ET: Tennessee at Jacksonville (ESPN/ABC) Joe Buck, Troy Aikman (see tweet below) Sunday Night: Detroit at Green Bay (NBC) Mire Tirico, Chris Collinsworth (https://nflcommunications.com/Documents/2022%20Football%20Information/Capsules/Week%2018%20Capsules.pdf) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CBS Early: New England at Buffalo Jim Nantz, Tony Romo Baltimore at Cincinnati Kevin Harlan, Trent Green (https://nflcommunications.com/Documents/2022 Football Information/Capsules/Week 18 Capsules.pdf) Cleveland at Pittsburgh Greg Gumbel, Adam Archuleta (https://nflcommunications.com/Documents/2022%20Football%20Information/Capsules/Week%2018%20Capsules.pdf) Houston at Indianapolis Spero Dedes, Jay Feeely (see tweet below) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CBS Late: New York Giants at Philadelphia Ian Eagle, Charles Davis (https://eagles.1rmg.com/season/2022/regular-season/week-18/weekly-release/) (also tweet below) Los Angeles Chargers at Denver Andrew Catalon, James Lofton (per Charger game notes and https://nflcommunications.com/Documents/2022%20Football%20Information/Capsules/Week%2018%20Capsules.pdf) FOX Early: New York Jets at Miami Joe Davis, Daryl Johnston (https://jets.1rmg.com/season/2022/regular-season/week-18/weekly-release/) (also tweet below) Minnesota at Chicago Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma (https://vikings.1rmg.com/season/2022/regular-season/week-18/game-release/) Tampa Bay at Atlanta Adam Amin, Mark Schlereth (https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/upload/buccaneers/ufvtlqlcvxu358b3jeie) Carolina at New Orleans Jason Benetti, now Matt Millen (FOX removed Brady Quinn, per: https://mcusercontent.com/4ef9e48118d62394ba5b65ae9/files/76a874f6-4352-9c4b-9c6f-6099e2b37d22/Regionalization_1.8.23.pdf) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOX Late: Dallas at Washington Kevin Burkhardt, Greg Olsen (https://washington.1rmg.com/season/2022/regular-season/week-18/weekly-guide/) Los Angeles Rams at Seattle Kevin Kugler, Mark Sanchez (https://rams.1rmg.com/season/2022/regular-season/week-18/weekly-book/) Arizona at San Francisco Chris Myers, Robert Smith (https://49ers.1rmg.com/season/2022/regular-season/week-18/weekly-release/) (also tweet below) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Edited January 5, 2023 by chongli 1 1 Quote
RiotAct Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 thanks Chongli. Wonder if the plan wss to give us Nantz-Romo all along 1 Quote
chongli Posted January 4, 2023 Author Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) 11 minutes ago, RiotAct said: thanks Chongli. Wonder if the plan wss to give us Nantz-Romo all along Yeah, many people thought we would get Ian Eagle and Charles Davis to lead into Nantz and Romo getting either Philly-NYG (which would get the most numbers) or Baltimore-Cincy (if played at 4 PM). But NE-BUF is a true win-and-in game for NE, and for BUF, the #1 seed might be on the line. CBS found this attractive. The announcers most assuredly got this asignment before last night's happening. And that is how the tweet is worded too. Now it is even more compelling, assuming the game is played. Edited January 4, 2023 by chongli Quote
Beast Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 Of course the league “largely didn’t practice yesterday.” Why? Because it was Tuesday and that’s the players day off. 1 Quote
chongli Posted January 4, 2023 Author Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) NFL Capsules are out, and all announcers have been determined, as updated in the OP. They list BAL-CIN as either 1 PM or 4:25 PM ET. https://nflcommunications.com/Documents/2022%20Football%20Information/Capsules/Week%2018%20Capsules.pdf Edited January 4, 2023 by chongli Quote
chongli Posted January 4, 2023 Author Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) The tab on top of the NFL's site lists BAL-CIN at Wednesday 7 PM (or 4 PM my time out west). Oops! Some intern must have messed up. https://www.nfl.com/ Edited January 4, 2023 by chongli Quote
