- CBS remains the main home of the American Football Conference (AFC) and the star quarterbacks in that conference, featuring must-see games in television's most-watched window (4:25 PM ET)
- More contests with the two-time defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs than any other network/station - including vs. Bengals (Week 2) and at the Bills (Week 11) and robust NFC games highlighted by the Eagles at Cowboys game (Week 1)
CBS Sports, the chief television network of record regarding the American Football Conference (AFC), recently announced their 101-game regular season schedule for their 65th season of NFL coverage, which will be followed by four postseason games -- two Wild Card games, one AFC Divisional Playoff game & the AFC Championship Game.
The 2024 NFL on CBS regular season schedule is accentuated by signature contests in the 4:25 PM ET national doubleheader game window, the most-watched window in all of televisionwith nearly 25 million viewers. CBS Sports will have 10 national Sunday doubleheader windows this season, starting in Week 2 with the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs hosting the Bengalsin a showdown between the two franchises that have represented the AFC in the Super Bowl in each of the five years (Kansas City in 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023 & Cincinnati in 2021).

The 4:25 PM ET game window is spotlighted by more top-notch games featuring AFC teams - including Chiefs vs. Bills (Week 11), Eagles vs. Ravens (Week 13), & Bills vs. Lions (Week 15) - and also some key NFC teams playing in this very important national window - including Eagles vs. Cowboys (Week 10) & Packers vs. Rams (Week 5). The NFL on CBS will finish out the 2024 regular season campaign very well with a national doubleheader in three of the season's last four regular season weeks.

The Chiefs, who have won the last two Super Bowls (including Super Bowl LVIII on CBS this past February), are scheduled to appear on CBS at least eight teams this season, at least twice more than any other network. The Chiefs have at least four 4:25 PM ET NFL on CBS doubleheader slots in the bag, showing off key conference and divisional matchups. Furthermore, the Bills, Steelers & Ravens will have eight CBS games of their own this season.

Stroud, Chargers QB Justin Herbert, Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa, Bills QB Josh Allen & Jets QB Aaron Rodgers.
