NFL Week 5 Sunday Schedule: There are other games besides Packers-Cowboys

This afternoon’s contest between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys will be the game on everyone’s minds across the NFL on this week five Sunday. It is an unusual nationally-televised day game, and the Aaron Rodgers vs. Dak Prescott matchup should have die-hard and casual football fans tuning in all the same.

But despite that contest coming up later this afternoon, there are still several games going on in the early time slot, and a few of them are intriguing matchups. There is divisional drama, with Saints-Buccaneers and Ravens-Steelers pitting rivals against one another. There’s also cross-conference contests like Falcons-Texans, Bears-Raiders, and Jaguars-Panthers on the schedule.

Finally, on Sunday Night Football we should have a fun AFC contest between the Colts and Chiefs as both teams try to get to a stronger position in the conference.

Yes, as Packers fans, you’re probably tuning in primarily for the afternoon tilt between the team from Titletown and the self-proclaimed America’s Team. But if you’re watching other games today, tune in and join us here to follow along.
