NFL Schedule Week 14: TV Coverage Map, Start Times and Live Stream Info

The Dallas Cowboys kicked off Week 14 by making a statement against the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football, bouncing back from a tough loss with a strong 41-28 victory. With many other franchises still in playoff contention, expect more statements to be made on Sunday.

Gil Brandt of NFL.com tweeted the staggering number of remaining contenders:

One team in dire need of such a game is the Arizona Cardinals. They are quickly losing their grasp on the NFC West with two consecutive losses, and a dropped game to the Kansas City Chiefs this week could result in Arizona relinquishing the throne to the Seattle Seahawks.

The New Orleans Saints are in a similar scenario. This team will be looking to ride recent momentum to a win over the Carolina Panthers in an effort to overtake the Atlanta Falcons for the top spot in the NFC South. A victory by the Saints on Sunday would apply plenty of pressure on the division-leading Falcons entering their Monday night contest against the Green Bay Packers.

There are plenty more examples of these must-win scenarios taking place in Week 14. To ensure you don't miss a moment of the forthcoming action, here's a look at the complete viewing information and coverage map for every game.

Game of the Week

Seattle Seahawks at Philadelphia Eagles

USA TODAY Sports

There's plenty on the line when the Seahawks meet the Eagles on Sunday. Both of these teams are deeply entrenched in an extremely tight NFC playoff race, and a loss could come with dire consequences.

Philadelphia sits atop the NFC East with a 9-3 record; although, after a Cowboys' victory on Thursday Night Football, its cushion has decreased to just one-half game. A loss would keep the Eagles top of the division, but they would be under pressure entering a very decisive Week 15 contest against the Cowboys.

Seattle finds itself in second place in the NFC West with an 8-4 record; however, the gap for first place has really tightened up following two consecutive losses by the Arizona Cardinals. If Seattle wins and Arizona loses in Week 14, the Seahawks will claim the division's top spot. Although, could result in the team on the outside looking in on the playoff picture.

If the Eagles are going to get any kind of offense going against Seattle, it must go through running back LeSean McCoy. He's been on fire of late, rattling off two consecutive performances of at least 130 rushing yards and a touchdown. Paul Domowitch of Philly.com noted McCoy's success has stemmed from spreading out the defense across the field:

The fifth-ranked Seahawks run defense will pose a big challenge for the ball-carrier, allowing an average of just 86.3 rushing yards per game.

Although, if McCoy can find room to run, it will limit the workload of quarterback Mark Sanchez. While the signal-caller has been surprisingly good in relief of Nick Foles, he is still prone to turnovers, throwing six interceptions and losing two fumbles in five games.

Philadelphia finds the most success when Sanchez limits his attempts and focuses on short, high-percentage passes that allow his weapons to create yards after the catch. That must be a major focus for the Eagles offense against a ball-hawking secondary.

On the flip side, Seattle's offense runs through quarterback Russell Wilson. He's been the catalyst for this team's success this season due to his ability to create yards with both his arm and his legs. While he's only passed for 2,466 yards and 15 touchdowns, he's limited his mistakes, throwing just five interceptions.

Making Wilson even more dangerous is his ability to scramble. He hasn't been afraid to take off when necessary, and he's accumulated 679 rushing yards and four touchdowns while averaging 7.5 yards per carry. Head coach Chip Kelly had difficulty simulating Wilson during practices over the week, according to Eagles Insider:

Expect the Eagles to keep at least one spy—perhaps Connor Barwin—on Wilson throughout the game in an effort to limit the quarterback's success on the ground. If Philadelphia can slow down Seattle's top-ranked rushing offense, it will have a good chance to overcome a team that has struggled to pass the ball this season.

The difference-makers in this contest will be the abilities of each defense to get off the field quickly and each quarterback to protect the football. The Seahawks have the upper hand in both of those categories, so they'll have to get the nod here.

Prediction: Seahawks 27, Eagles 24
