  • ESPN/ABC to exclusively televise the Eastern Conference Finals (Florida vs. NY Rangers) while TNT/truTV exclusively the Western Conference Finals (Edmonton vs. Dallas).
  • Florida Panthers and New York Rangers to meet in the postseason for just the second time, and for the first time since 1997.
  • Edmonton Oilers and Dallas Stars renew a familiar rivalry, as the teams meet in the playoffs for the ninth time ever, and for the first time in 21 years (2003).

The 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs will continue this week with the start of the Eastern Conference Finals on Wednesday, May 22 (Panthers vs. Rangers) on ESPN and the Western Conference Finals on Thursday, May 23 (Oilers vs. Stars) on TNT & truTV. We are now halfway home in terms of the postseason action.

On Wednesday, May 22, the 2024 Presidents' Trophy winner, the New York Rangers, look to continue their historic playoff run as the team finds themselves in the Eastern Conference Finals for the second time in three seasons. With home-ice advantage in this series, the Rangers and their playoff leading scorers Artemi Panarin, Mika Zibanejad, Chris Kredier and Vincent Trocheck go up against Matthew Tkachuk, Sam Rinehart, goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky and the Florida Panthers, making their second straight Eastern Conference Finals appearance.

The Rangers look to make the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 2014, and win a Stanley Cup for the first time since 1994. As for the Panthers, they swept the Hurricanes in last year's Eastern Conference Final, advancing to the 2023 Stanley Cup Final, where they lost to the Vegas Golden Knights. Florida tries to earn redemption and atonement for the sour ending to last season. Furthermore, the Panthers are still trying to capture their first Stanley Cup in franchise history (the Panthers have been around since 1993).

The Rangers and Panthers are meeting in the playoffs for the first time since 1997, when the Rangers dispatched the Panthers in five games in the Conference Quarterfinals (first round).

Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals is scheduled for Wednesday, May 22 at 8:00 PM ET on ESPN. ESPN NHL lead play-by-play commentator Sean McDonough, analyst Ray Ferraro, and reporter Emily Kaplan will provide commentary for Game 1 and for the entire duration of the Panthers vs. Rangers series (McDonough missed Game 2 due to illness, so Bob Wischusen replaced him for that game).

ESPN's studio coverage for the Eastern Conference Final is led by host Steve Levy, joined by Hall of Famer and six-time Stanley Cup winner Mark Messier and three-time All-Star P.K. Subban.

Then, the next night, Thursday, May 23, at 8:30 PM ET, on TNT and truTV, the Western Conference Finals will get underway from the American Airlines Center in Dallas where the Dallas Stars, led by Jason Robertson and others, host Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers in Game 1 of the best-of-seven Conference Final series. These teams are meeting in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2003, when the Stars bested the Oilers in six games during the Conference Quarterfinals (first round).

Seeking the franchise's second Stanley Cup championship and first one since 1999, the Dallas Stars have been able to vanquish the last two Stanley Cup champions, the defending Stanley Cup champion Vegas Golden Knights in seven games and the 2022 Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche in six games - advancing to the team's Western Conference Final appearance in the last five seasons.

The Oilers are back in the Western Conference Finals for the second time in three seasons, seeking to hoist their sixth Stanley Cup ever and for the first time since 1990. Connor McDavid, who has earned the title of being one of the top hockey players in the sport, and his team took out the Los Angeles Kings in five games and the Vancouver Canucks in seven games.

Describing the action for the whole series is play-by-play commentator Kenny Albert, analysts Eddie Olczyk and Brian Boucher, and reporter Jackie Redmond.

Turner's studio for the Western Conference Final will feature host Liam McHugh, Hall of Fame goaltender Henrik Lundqvist, 10-year NHL veteran Anson Carter, Calder Cup champion Paul Bissonnette, and of course, the legend himself Wayne Gretzky.

The Conference Finals will then continue with games every single night through at least Wednesday, May 29, with additional games being played (if necessary) from Thursday, May 30 to Tuesday, June 4.

  • NFL on FOX adds a new holiday game to matchless regular season slate on Saturday, December 21 when the Baltimore Ravens host the Pittsburgh Steelers at 4:30 PM ET.
  • Week 1 starts off with a exclusive doubleheader day, featuring the highly anticipated broadcast debut of Tom Brady in a America's Game of the Week showdown between the Dallas Cowboys and the Cleveland Browns.
  • NFL on FOX lands first Super Bowl re-match in network history in Week 7, when the Kansas City Chiefs visit the San Francisco 49ers during America's Game of the Week.
  • FOX Sports strides into the network's 11th Super Bowl presentation with Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.

Following a renowned 30th anniversary season of offering award-winning NFL coverage and entering a supercharged year that will come to a crescendo on FOX with Super Bowl LIX live from the Casears Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday, February 9, 2025, FOX Sports announced their 2024 NFL schedule earlier this week.

FOX Sports' much looked forward to 31st season on the air begins on Sunday, September 8, with a exclusive doubleheader and the new NFL on FOX lead broadcast team featuring returning NFL on FOX play-by-play man Kevin Burkhardt alongside seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady in his game analyst debut. Burkhardt and Brady are joined by veteran reporters Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi on the call for the Dallas Cowboys at the Cleveland Browns in America's Game of the Week (4:25 PM ET).

For the first time in the three-decade long history of FOX Sports, the network will have a opportunity to highlight a Super Bowl re-match between the two teams that played in the big game the previous year. America's Game of the Week will have the Super Bowl 58 re-match as the San Francisco 49ers host the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. 

FOX's robust 18-week slate for the 2024 regular season features appearances from a powerhouse lineup of NFC teams, including the Cowboys (9), 49ers (8), Lions (8), Eagles (8), Packers (8) and Giants (8).

Following the regular season, FOX will have four postseason games -- one Wild Card game, one Divisional Playoff game, the NFC Championship Game & and of course, Super Bowl LIX.

Super Bowl LIX marks FOX's 11th broadcast of the Super Bowl - more than any other network in the last 30 years - and comes in two years after FOX's widely praised coverage of Super Bowl LVII in Arizona, where the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles (38-35) in the final moments of the game.

  • Crucial Late Season Doubleheader: 2023 division champions meet up in Week 16 on NBC and Peacock: Texans at Chiefs on Saturday, December 21 at 1:00 PM ET; and Buccaneers at Cowboys the following night, Sunday, December 22, at 8:20 PM ET on NBC and Peacock.
  • Peacock to stream all Sunday Night Football on NBC broadcasts in 2024, plus the Football Night in America pregame show & the exclusive to the service postgame show, Peacock Sunday Night Football Final.

Sunday Night Football on NBC, the top show in America in primetime for an unparalleled 13 consecutive years now, is the broadcast home for the finest and brightest in 2024, starting off the season with Patrick Mahomes and the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs once again raising a championship banner at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium before hosting 2023 league MVP Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens in NFL Kickoff 2024. This game, of course, is a re-match of last season's AFC Championship Game and marks the first time that a set of quarterbacks with multiple MVP awards meet in Week 1. The season opener is the first of FOUR (yes, FOUR) appearances by Mahomes and the Chiefs on NBC and Peacock this season.

The following evening (Friday, September 6), Peacock is the exclusive national broadcast home as Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers face off with Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles in São Paolo, Brazil, marking the first time that the NFL has ever played a game in Brazil and the league's first opening weekend game on a Friday night since 1970 (Cardinals/Rams). Then, on Sunday, September 8, on NBC and Peacock, in yet another postseason rematch from the 2023 season, Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams travel to play Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions in the season premiere of Sunday Night Football.

Aaron Rodgers is set to make his first appearances as a New York Jet on Sunday Night Football, when they visit the Pittsburgh Steelers (Sunday, October 20) and host the Indianapolis Colts (Sunday, November 17).

Peacock will once again stream all Sunday Night Football on NBC games, including the postseason, and the Football Night in America studio show featuring the returning cast of Maria Taylor (welcome back! 👏), Devin McCourty, Chris Simms, Jason Garrett, Matthew Berry & Mike Florio.

For the third straight season, the trio of play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico, analyst Cris Collinsworth & reporter Melissa Stark will return to provide commentary for each week's Sunday night game on NBC & Peacock. For select games, NBC will use a secondary broadcast team - Noah Eagle (play-by-play), Todd Blackledge (analyst) & Kathryn Tappen (sideline reporter). Eagle, Blackledge & Tappen will call the Week 1 Packers vs. Eagles game in Sao Paolo, Brazil and a game to TBD in Week 16.

- Highlights of the 2024 Sunday Night Football on NBC schedule include:
  • Four appearances by the two-time defending Super Bowl Kansas City Chiefs (vs. Ravens in Week 1, at Falcons in Week 3, vs. Chargers in Week 14 & vs. Texans in Week 16); three appearances by the Dallas Cowboys (including two games vs. historic postseason rivals Pittsburgh Steelers & San Francisco 49ers), Green Bay Packers (including São Paolo & Thanksgiving night), & the defending AFC South champion Houston Texans.
  • 13 games featuring two 2023 playoff teams and NBC Sports' record SEVEN meetings between division winners from last season.
  • The Dallas Cowboys make three appearances on Sunday Night Football in 2024, as per usual. In fact, two of three matchups stand out in particular. On Sunday, October 6, they will travel to Pittsburgh to meet up with the Pittsburgh Steelers in the first matchup on NBC between these two longtime rivals since Super Bowl XXX in 1996. These teams faced off in two Super Bowls during the 1970's (with each team winning once). The Cowboys and Steelers have each played in the Super Bowl eight times (tied for second all-time, only behind the New England Patriots, who have been in the Super Bowl a record 11 times). Combined, the Cowboys (five) & Steelers (six) have 11 Lombardi Trophies between them. Three weeks later, on Sunday, October 27, the Cowboys will fly out west to battle the San Francisco 49ers, another team that Dallas has a lengthy postseason résumé against. The teams have played in nine playoff games over the years, including six NFC Championship games. Finally, on December 22, the Cowboys will welcome in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to AT&T Stadium. The Cowboys have defeated the Buccaneers in all three postseason meetings between the clubs, including Tom Brady's final game in January 2023.

On NBC and Peacock, NBC Sports will present 22 regular season games this season, 18 regular season Sunday Night Football games, NFL Kickoff Game, the Peacock exclusive Week 1 Brazil game between the Packers & Eagles, the annual Thanksgiving night game between the Dolphins & Packers, & a special Saturday afternoon Week 16 broadcast between the Texans & Chiefs. NBC Sports will televise two playoff games this season, one Wild Card game & Divisional Playoff game. NBC and Peacock will also provide live coverage of one preseason game (Patriots vs. Commanders) this August. In total, NBC Sports will present 25 NFL games during the 2024 season.

On the weekend of January 11-12, NBC & Peacock will televise a Wild Card playoff game, followed by a Divisional Playoff game on the weekend of January 18-19.

2024 NFL on CBS Schedule

  • CBS remains the main home of the American Football Conference (AFC) and the star quarterbacks in that conference, featuring must-see games in television's most-watched window (4:25 PM ET)
  • More contests with the two-time defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs than any other network/station - including vs. Bengals (Week 2) and at the Bills (Week 11) and robust NFC games highlighted by the Eagles at Cowboys game (Week 1)

CBS Sports, the chief television network of record regarding the American Football Conference (AFC), recently announced their 101-game regular season schedule for their 65th season of NFL coverage, which will be followed by four postseason games -- two Wild Card games, one AFC Divisional Playoff game & the AFC Championship Game.

The 2024 NFL on CBS regular season schedule is accentuated by signature contests in the 4:25 PM ET national doubleheader game window, the most-watched window in all of television with nearly 25 million viewers. CBS Sports will have 10 national Sunday doubleheader windows this season, starting in Week 2 with the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs hosting the Bengals in a showdown between the two franchises that have represented the AFC in the Super Bowl in each of the five years (Kansas City in 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023 & Cincinnati in 2021).

The 4:25 PM ET game window is spotlighted by more top-notch games featuring AFC teams - including Chiefs vs. Bills (Week 11), Eagles vs. Ravens (Week 13), & Bills vs. Lions (Week 15) - and also some key NFC teams playing in this very important national window - including Eagles vs. Cowboys (Week 10) & Packers vs. Rams (Week 5). The NFL on CBS will finish out the 2024 regular season campaign very well with a national doubleheader in three of the season's last four regular season weeks.

The Chiefs, who have won the last two Super Bowls (including Super Bowl LVIII on CBS this past February), are scheduled to appear on CBS at least eight teams this season, at least twice more than any other network. The Chiefs have at least four 4:25 PM ET NFL on CBS doubleheader slots in the bag, showing off key conference and divisional matchups. Furthermore, the Bills, Steelers & Ravens will have eight CBS games of their own this season.

As the primary home for AFC games, the 2024 NFL on CBS schedule possess a ridiculous amount of top-tier and star quarterbacks including Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, Bengals QB Joe Burrow, Texans QB C.J. Stroud, Chargers QB Justin Herbert, Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa, Bills QB Josh Allen & Jets QB Aaron Rodgers.

As per usual, CBS will once again televise a national game on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 28. At 12:30 PM (ET) that day, a NFC North rivalry takes place as Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions host 2024 NFL Draft #1 pick Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears.

The schedule is once again anchored at the 1:00 PM ET window by an amazing slate of divisional rivalries, 2023 playoff teams and interconference games.

The group of AFC teams that CBS plans on featuring heavily in particular include the Bills, Steelers, Ravens, Bengals, Jets, Dolphins with a regular presence of NFC teams including the Packers, Eagles, 49ers, Giants, Bears, Lions, Rams & Vikings.
