NFL Week 5 Sunday football is here, and if Thursday Night Football taught us anything - we just might be in for a surprising treat throughout the day. 

With Week 5 beginning the stretch of byes for NFL teams, four teams will be missing in action: Los Angeles Chargers, Cleveland Browns, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks. Bye weeks will ensue through Week 14. 

Ten matchups occupy the slate before the Dallas Cowboys battle the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football. 

Here's the coverage maps for each time slot courtesy of 506 Sports:

CBS Early

Only three matchups occupy the CBS early slate, with majority of the country seeing the AFC North battle between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens. Matchups between the Indianapolis Colts-Tennessee Titans and New Orleans Saints-New England Patriots will mostly be featured around the local markets, though Fresno, CA will catch Saints-Patriots. 

CBS Late

The afternoon slate for CBS only features two games, and a vast majority of the country will watch Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Minnesota Vikings - whoever hits the griddy the best will be featured on the next Taylor Swift single. 

Jets-Broncos will only be featured in/around the local areas. 

FOX SINGLE

FOX's single slate features five different matchups with a scattered map on their side of the broadcast network. 

Games such as Cardinals-Bengals and Texans-Falcons are almost exclusively limited to the specific regions the respective sides play in while Carolina-Detroit, Giants-Dolphins and Eagles-Rams get a bit more coverage outside of their cities.
