NFL TV Schedule 2014: Week 15 Coverage Map Listings for Every Game

Week 15 will yield the 2014 NFL season's first division champion.

All right, while that statement isn't a 100 percent guarantee, it's still highly likely. After all, the New England Patriots, Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts can secure their respective divisions with wins, and it's not often those three teams all lose on the same week.

While there aren't any clinching scenarios in the NFC, rest assured there will be some major clarification in the conference's playoff picture due to several key matchups taking pace between rivals in the highly competitive NFC West and NFC East. We'll have a better idea of which teams are headed to the postseason following Week 15.

To ensure not a moment of this pivotal week on the gridiron is missed, here's a look at the entire viewing information, via nationwide coverage map, for the 16-game slate.

Top Games to Watch on Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns

The second edition of the Battle of Ohio comes with plenty of intrigue. The first time around, the Browns stormed through Cincinnati, defeating the Bengals 24-3 on Thursday Night Football. However, plenty has changed since then.

That contest against the Bengals marked the last game in which Cleveland quarterback Brian Hoyer did not throw an interception. The veteran signal-caller began to struggle soon after, tossing eight picks over his next four games. That, of course, led to the inevitable, via NFL on ESPN:

That's right, Johnny Manziel will be making his first career start on Sunday.

The rookie quarterback won't be facing one of the league's stingiest defenses, as the Bengals are ranked 27th against the run and 21st against the pass. However, expect Cincinnati to treat this like a playoff game—losing a second consecutive contest against a division foe could be the team's ultimate undoing.

With the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens taking on the Atlanta Falcons and Jacksonville Jaguars, respectively, there's a good possibility each will notch another win on Sunday. This will likely put the loser between the two Ohio teams nearly out of postseason contention.

There's still a strong chance the AFC North can send three teams to the playoffs, so expect other AFC wild-card contenders to be keeping a keen eye on this matchup.

Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles

Here's another contest that will have dire postseason implications, both for the NFC East and the conference's wild-card picture.

Heading into Week 15, the Eagles sit atop the division with a 9-4 record; however, the Cowboys are second by only a head-to-head tiebreaker. If Philadelphia wins, it gets a stranglehold on the division, having swept the season series against Dallas. If the Cowboys win, they will get the top spot, but the Eagles would still own the tiebreaker due to division records—that may come in handy if Dallas falters down the stretch.

The last time these teams faced off, the Eagles took an easy 33-10 victory on Thanksgiving Day. Running back LeSean McCoy ran all over the Cowboys, gaining 159 yards and a score on 25 carries, while Tony Romo was forced to play catch-up, throwing two interceptions in the process.

According to John Clark of CSNPhilly.com, history says the Eagles have a strong chance to duplicate their success:

However, Philadelphia must be wary. The Cowboys are coming into the game after lighting up the Chicago Bears for 41 points in Week 14 while the Eagles couldn't get out of their own way against the Seattle Seahawks, gaining just 139 yards of offense in a 24-14 loss.

Momentum can go a long way—especially in division games. Philadelphia's home-field advantage in the national spotlight will certainly be beneficial, but the Cowboys have been road warriors this season, winning all six of their contests away from AT&T Stadium.
