As you may know, the NFL on FOX is the place to be this Sunday, November 24, with a Week 12 doubleheader stuffed with football goodness all day long. For this week, FOX Sports has five games to showcase across two windows. In the 1:00 PM ET window, you have Cowboys vs. Commanders, Vikings vs. Bears and Lions vs. Colts. Following this, in the national America's Game of the Week 4:25 PM ET window, we have 49ers vs. Packers and Cardinals vs. Seahawks. Which FOX games will your local market be receiving and which announcing team is set to call your matchups? Read on to find out the answer.
Folks, in this week's NFL on FOX: Field Pass, we will have the complete broadcast schedule for the NFL on FOX this Sunday, so you can plan your football Sunday out. In addition to that, the announcer assignments and distribution splits will also be provided for you. To top it off, I will enclose brief capsules about each game in order to educate and inform the reading audience. There are plenty of topics to hit on for the Sunday before Thanksgiving, so let's get started, shall we?
FOX Sports' Week 12 doubleheader coverage will get under way with two live hours of pregame coverage. The pregame lineup starts at 11:00 AM ET on FOX, with FOX NFL Kickoff presented by Little Casears. Live from Los Angeles, the program features host Charissa Thompson, analyst and three-time Super Bowl champion Julian Edelman, analyst and four-time Pro Bowler Michael Vick, analyst and Hall of Famer Charles Woodson & insider Peter Schrager. Also, Cooper Manning and Colin Cowherd contribute segments for the show. "FOX NFL Kickoff" previews the upcoming day's football action, with interviews, live reports from NFL game venues, breaking news and updates integrated in.
One hour later, at 12:00 PM ET on FOX, the multi-hour pregame programming continues with the iconic FOX NFL Sunday presented by GMC. Emanating from Los Angeles, longtime FOX Sports host Curt Menefee and Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw share hosting duties for the program. Joining Menefee and Bradshaw in studio this week are Hall of Famers Michael Strahan, Jimmy Johnson and Howie Long. Jay Glazer serves the "insider", reporting on the up-to-minute news in the NFL. As per usual, "FOX NFL Sunday" will have pregame discussion, interviews, and predictions for Sunday's games.
The doubleheader coverage commences at 1:00 PM ET on FOX with the kickoffs of the early afternoon games. FOX plans to regionalize three games in the 1:00 PM ET timeslot, including: Cowboys vs. Commanders (79% of Markets), Lions vs. Colts (11% of Markets) & Vikings vs. Bears (10% of Markets). I strongly encourage you to press ahead to find condensed previews for all three early FOX doubleheader games this week.
Later in the day, America's Game of the Week hits the air at 4:25 PM ET to serve as the second game of the doubleheader. Two games comprise the late afternoon window this week - 49ers vs. Packers (93% of Markets) & Cardinals vs. Seahawks (7% of Markets). To make a long story short, if you don't live in Washington State or Arizona (Seattle, Phoenix, etc.), you're getting San Francisco at Green Bay. Time now for me to provide you with a pregame explanation of both of these matchups before they kick off Sunday on FOX.
Commanders rookie QB Jayden Daniels and his Washington Commanders (7-4) strive to get right against Micah Parsons and the free falling Dallas Cowboys (3-7) in NFC East play on Sunday, November 24 at 1:00 PM ET on FOX. It has been a gloomy season in Dallas, as the Cowboys possess an atrocious five-game losing streak, including last week's 34-10 beatdown at AT&T Stadium by CJ Stroud and visiting Houston Texans. The Cowboys (3-7) are tied for the second worst in the NFC (Carolina), only ahead of next week's opponent, the New York Giants (2-8). Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb had 8 catches & 106 scrimmage yards last week vs. the Texans. The Commanders are on a two-game losing streak, losing 28-27 to the Steelers in Week 10 and losing 26-18 to the Eagles in Week 11 (TNF). The Commanders are one of six teams above .500 this season following a postseason miss last year. This game vs. the Cowboys is an important game for Washington, as they must win in order to keep pace with the Eagles for the top of the NFC East. For Bobby Wagner and the Commanders, they have a game and a half cushion for a Wild Card position. Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. rushed for 63 yards & rush touchdown last week vs. the Eagles. 🎙 Sunday's Cowboys-Commanders game will be nationally televised on FOX, as Joe Davis (play-by-play) joins analyst and three-time Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen and reporter Pam Oliver from Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland.
Amon-Ra St. Brown and the Detroit Lions (9-1) are in search for their 10th victory during this week's expedition to the Circle City of Indianapolis to match up against Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis Colts (5-6) on Sunday, November 24 at 1:00 PM ET on FOX. The Lions have won nine of their first 10 games of a season for the first time in 90 years, since they started 10-0 in 1934. The Lions, of course, came off arguably their best win in franchise history last week via a 52-6 thrashing of the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Lions are still hungry for their first Super Bowl appearance in franchise history. Including the playoffs, the Lions have rushed for a touchdown in 24 consecutive games, the longest such streak in NFL history. The Lions have the #1 seed in the NFC & the league's highest scoring offense (336 points, 33.6 per game). The Colts are back on the field following last week's important 28-27 win over the Jets in New Jersey. Now, the Colts try to even up their record at 6-6 and improve their postseason odds. Colts DT DeForest Buckner had 5 tackles & TFL in Week 11 vs. the Jets. 🎙 Veteran play-by-play announcer Kenny Albert, analyst and Super Bowl champion Jonathan Vilma and reporter Megan Olivi take the call from Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Jordan Addison and the Minnesota Vikings (8-2) conclude their three-game road trip against Rome Odunze and the slumping Chicago Bears (4-6) in this NFC North tilt on Sunday, November 24 at 1:00 PM ET on FOX. Things are looking good in Minneapolis these days as the Vikings bring a three-game winning streak to the Windy City. Last week, the Vikings defeated the Titans 23-13 in Nashville. The Vikings try to sweep their three-game road trip before heading back to U.S. Bank Stadium next week vs. Arizona. Right now, the Vikings are the #5 seed in the NFC and only one game behind Detroit for the NFC North lead. Obviously, the Vikings have to be on their best behavior against a division foe with so much at stake for them. Vikings S Camryn Bynum has a pass deflection in three of his previous four games. Vikings WR Justin Jefferson ranks second in the NFL with 912 receiving yards in 2024. The Bears need to stop the bleeding this week, as they have a terrible stretch of games, taking a L in four straight games after a surprising 4-2 start. Now, Chicago needs to start some winning games as their playoff chances are to starting to slip away with every passing week. Last week, the Bears nearly vanquished the Packers, but lost on a blocked field goal attempt as time expired, 20-19. Bears WR DJ Moore had 7 catches for 62 yards in Week 11 vs. the Packers. Bears S Kevin Byard III led the team with nine tackles in Week 11 vs. the Packers. 🎙 You can catch Sunday's Vikings-Bears divisional matchup on FOX, as play-by-play commentator Kevin Kugler, analyst and three-time Super Bowl champion Daryl "Moose" Johnston and sideline reporter Laura Okmin are scheduled for the 1:00 PM ET presentation.
The San Francisco 49ers (5-5) and the Green Bay Packers (7-3) meet in a re-match of last season's NFC Divisional Playoff Game (a game won by San Francisco, 24-21) on Sunday, November 24 at 4:25 PM ET on FOX. The defending NFC champions have had a rocky season so far, splitting their first ten regular season games. Last week, the 49ers fell victim to a stunning 20-17 loss to their divisional rival, the Seahawks. San Francisco is very much in play for a Wild Card spot and a NFC West title despite this unsteady beginning. The 49ers are banged up entering this one, as DE Nick Bosa (hip) and QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) are both OUT this week. The 49ers rank second in the NFL in total offense (398.9 yards per game). The Packers are surging right now, as the team has captured wins in five of their previous six games (with a Week 9 loss to the Lions being the only blemish in this stretch). The Packers got an emotional win over the Bears last week, 20-19, with Packers DL Karl Brooks blocking a potential game-winning Bears field goal attempt. Currently, the Packers have one of the three Wild Cards in the NFC. The Packers rank fourth in the league in total offense (388.1). 🎙 FOX will be your television home for 49ers-Packers on Sunday, with FOX's lead crew of Kevin Burkhardt (play-by-play), seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady (analyst), Erin Andrews (reporter) & Tom Rinaldi (reporter) tasked with the assignment.
The top of the NFC West is the principal headline ahead of this NFC West matchup in Seattle, as Kyler Murray and the NFC West leading Arizona Cardinals (6-4) visit Julian Love and the Seattle Seahawks (5-5) on Sunday, November 24 at 4:25 PM ET on FOX. The Cardinals are riding a four-game winning streak into Sunday's critical NFC West clash. Plus, Arizona has won six of their first ten games for the first time since the 2021 season. Two weeks ago (prior to the team's bye last week), the Cardinals picked up a dominant 31-6 win over the Jets. In Week 10 vs. the Jets, Cardinals QB Kyler Murray became the fourth quarterback in NFL history with three-or-more rushing touchdowns in each of his first six seasons. The Seahawks are feeling great after last week's 20-17 victory in Santa Clara against the 49ers. Seattle's fifth win has them becoming a major factor in this NFC West race as Thanksgiving approaches. Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba recorded 10 catches for 110 yards in Week 11 vs. the 49ers. 🎙 Play-by-play commentator Adam Amin, analyst and former NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez and reporter Kristina Pink head to the Pacific Northwest for Sunday's Cardinals-Seahawks FOX broadcast.
