PITTSBURGH -- For the most part, anyone who wants to see the Pittsburgh Steelers battle the Seattle Seahawks in the late window of Sunday NFL action this week will have to live north of the Mason-Dixon line. 

Only half of the country will get Steelers-Seahawks on their local FOX station this week, according to 506Sports, which tracks NFL coverage nationwide week-in and week-out.

The Steelers and Seahawks will dominate most of the northern United States, from Washington and most of Oregon all the way through Montana, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan down into Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. Northeast New England, eastern Markyand and North Carolina, plus pockets in Jacksonville, Florida, Miami, Atlanta, Georgia and Las Vegas, Nevada will get the Steelers game as well. 

Viewers in Alaska will get Steelers-Seahawks as well. 

The Steelers are competing with a number of compelling matchups with playoff implications during the same timeslot their game is in.  

The Philadelphia Eagles are hosting Arizona, the Los Angeles Rams visit the Giants, San Francisco travels east to Face Washington, New Orleans meets Tampa Bay in an intra-divisional matchup and the Titans face the Houston Texans on the road all in the four o'clock window of games. 

Some cities even had the Steelers-Seahawks game flexed in and out of their market. Columbus, Ohio will now get the Steelers game instead of Saints-Buccaneers, but Evansville, Illinois and Lincoln, Nebraska viewers will see the reverse - Tampa Bay and New Orleans on their FOX affiliate instead of Seattle-Pittsburgh.
