There aren’t really a whole lot of major sports networks carrying the games of the NFL. They’re mostly available on NBC, CBS, FOX, ESPN, and the NFL Network-it all actually depends on what day it is in the week, the week of games, and of course the stature of the game as well. Let me do a little tour for each of you. Here they are:

1. NBC (Sunday Night Football)

It is broadcast in a station called NBC hosts Sunday Night Football, which coincidentally is the prime time game every week played in the NFL. Most of the times, it is the game played with big teams in hopes of competing in the playoffs and most of the time is the most hyped game of the week and the weekend. It provides play-by-play commentary from experts, namely, Al Michaels and Chris Collinsworth.
