The NFL Sunday slate is looking as strong as it has in quite some time heading into Week 13. Only two teams are on bye and NFL teams are playing the normal allotment of three stand-alone games after a loaded Thursday slate for Thanksgiving.

As such, NFL fans will be treated to 12 games on Sunday afternoon, and there are plenty of good ones from which to choose.
Per usual, Fox and CBS will broadcast all of the NFL Sunday afternoon games, but it's CBS that will be showing the NFL doubleheader. They will be showing six games across two broadcast windows while Fox will be airing one of six games in each region of the country.
Both CBS and Fox should have access to plenty of quality games in NFL Week 13. CBS' slate is better overall, as it will rely on the Jets-Vikings contest to carry its early window while the Bengals vs. Chiefs game will be a near-national game in the late window.
As for Fox, their biggest draw is a battle between the Eagles and the Titans which will have an impact on the NFC and AFC playoff chases respectively. Additionally, the Dolphins-49ers game in their late window will be an audience driving, giving each network two marquee-type matchups this week.
Below is the full NFL coverage map for Week 13, plus a list of major TV markets and the CBS and Fox games that will be presented in each on Sunday.

TV schedule for NFL Week 13 games
The NFL will have plenty of quality contests on the Sunday afternoon schedule. The Chiefs-Bengals, Dolphins-49ers and Titans-Eagles games all will impact the NFL playoff picture while Deshaun Watson will return to the field for the first time in 700 days to face his former team, the Texans, in his first game with the Browns.
The league's prime-time games aren't quite as interesting, but there will still be intrigue surrounding each. The Cowboys and Colts will square off on "Sunday Night Football" as the Colts look to recover from a home loss to the Steelers. Meanwhile, Dallas can further establish itself as the Eagles' main competition in the NFC East with a victory.
"Monday Night Football" will be a rivalry game between the Saints and the Buccaneers. Tom Brady earned his first regular-season win over New Orleans with Tampa Bay in Week 2, and he will need to play well to help his first-place team reach .500 again after a disappointing loss to Cleveland.
Below is the full list of the Sunday afternoon games that will be broadcast regionally by CBS and Fox.
