Who should you be rooting for today?
We know you will want to watch some football this weekend. So, here is New York Giants fan’s viewing/rooting guide for Sunday’s NFL action.
See 506sports.com for the games being shown where you live.
1 p.m.
Los Angeles Chargers (7-4) at Atlanta Falcons (6-5)
TV: CBS — Kevin Harlan, Trent Green, Melanie Collins (field reporter)
Hypothetical: The Falcons decide the don’t need BOTH Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix. Which one do you want? I would opt for Penix, but that probably wouldn’t be the realistic option.
Pittsburgh Steelers (8-3) at Cincinnati Bengals (4-7)
TV: CBS — Ian Eagle, Charles Davis, Evan Washburn (field reporter)
Speaking of quarterback options, are you a Russell Wilson guy or a Justin Fields guy? At least one figures to be available this offseason.
Houston Texans (7-5) at Jacksonville Jaguars (2-9)
TV: FOX — Kevin Kugler, Daryl Johnston, Laura Okmin (field reporter)
Want that No. 1 pick? You are a Jaguars’ fan today
Arizona Cardinals (6-5) at Minnesota Vikings (9-2)
TV: FOX — Joe Davis, Greg Olsen, Pam Oliver (field reporter)
Please do not get hurt, Sam Darnold!
Indianapolis Colts (5-7) at New England Patriots (3-9)
TV: CBS — Spero Dedes, Adam Archuleta, Aditi Kinkhabwala (field reporter)
Hey, you get to watch what building teams trying to develop young quarterbacks look like.
Seattle Seahawks (6-5) at New York Jets (3-8)
TV: FOX — Adam Amin, Mark Sanchez, Kristina Pink (field reporter)
It could be worse, Giants fans. You could be a Jets fan.
Tennessee Titans (3-8) at Washington Commanders (7-5)
TV: CBS — Andrew Catalon, Tiki Barber, Jason McCourty, AJ Ross (field reporter)
If the Titans win, you get a double-dip. An NFC East team loses, and that helps the Giants’ draft position.
4:05 p.m.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-6) at Carolina Panthers (3-8)
TV: FOX — Chris Myers, Mark Schlereth, Jen Hale (field reporter)
Like with the Jaguars, you are also a Panthers’ fan today.
Los Angeles Rams (5-6) at New Orleans Saints (4-7)
TV: FOX — Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma, Megan Olivi (field reporter)
This game is interesting only because the Saints are the Giants’ next opponent. By the way, the Saints drafted Spencer Rattler in Round 5. I would rather have Rattler playing quarterback for the Giants right now than either Tommy DeVito or Drew Lock.
4:25 p.m.
Philadelphia Eagles (9-2) at Baltimore Ravens (8-4)
TV: CBS — Jim Nantz, Tony Romo, Tracy Wolfson (field reporter)
Go Christmas shopping! Do something else! Don’t subject yourself to this! I don’t need to tell you why.
8:20 p.m.
San Francisco 49ers (5-6) at Buffalo Bills (9-2)
TV: NBC — Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth, Melissa Stark (field reporter)
National Radio — Westwood One (8:20 PM ET): Ryan Radtke, Ross Tucker
We will have a separate thread for this game Sunday evening.
