NFL Schedule Week 5: TV Times, Coverage Map and Live Stream Guide
Five of the NFL's six undefeated teams will put their precious perfect records on the line in Week 5.
Cincinnati arguably has the toughest test at home against last year's Super Bowl runner-up Seattle, while Green Bay could be in for a rough match with a dangerous St. Louis squad. New England, Denver and Atlanta all have matchups against .500 squads with glaring deficiencies.
Carolina has an early bye week and will hold on to its unblemished mark.
Already, Week 5 has seen one upset, with an ailing, geriatric-by-NFL-standards Matt Hasselbeck leading the Indianapolis Colts to a 27-20 road win over the Houston Texans on Thursday night. Perhaps more are on the way.
Here are the broadcast start times and viewing info for Week 5's matchups. A coverage map showing where each game is televised across the United States can be found at 506Sports.com.

Games to Watch
St. Louis at Green Bay
Come for the excellence that is Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, stay for the possibility of another big game from Rams rookie running back Todd Gurley.
Rodgers is playing quarterback better than anyone alive, save for perhaps Tom Brady. Grantland's Bill Barnwell noted their statistical similarities but gave Rodgers' performance thus far this year an edge for what he's done with the talent available:
"The difference, for me, is supporting cast. They each have a fantastic slot receiver, with Edelman in New England and Randall Cobb in Green Bay, but Brady has Gronk. He certainly makes Gronkowski better, but there are plays where Gronkowski is just uncoverable in a way that nobody else in football is uncoverable, in the way that a bear mauling your picnic site is unstoppable.
Rodgers, meanwhile, is doing this without Jordy Nelson, the closest thing he has to a Gronkowski. His No. 2 receiver is James Jones, who was cut by the Giants in September. He has made some ridiculous catches this season, but Jones is a guy in a bear suit rummaging around your picnic site. He’s still scary — because why on earth is there a guy in a bear suit foraging for food in your camp? — but he’s not Gronk.
"
Rodgers has a stiff test this week in the Rams' pass rush. Aaron Donald, Chris Long and Robert Quinn are all healthy and excellent players. The Rams have racked up 17 sacks this year, tied with Green Bay for second in the league. Rodgers will have to be at his best, moving around in the pocket and making throws on the run. With a banged-up wide receiver corps, look for him to continue a connection with namesake tight end Richard Rodgers, who caught five passes for 45 yards and a touchdown in Week 4.

St. Louis' offense has a chance at keeping pace in this game, especially now with Gurley looking like the game-changing back the Rams had in mind when they drafted him in the first round this year. Gurley carried the ball 19 times for 146 rushing yards in St. Louis' Week 4 win over Arizona. NFL Network's Andrew Siciliano noted he flashed great big-play ability:
The likes of Gurley, Tavon Austin and Jared Cook gives St. Louis some tantalizing options on offense. Green Bay's attacking defense has been prone to giving up chunks of yards on the ground, so Gurley could be in for another eye-popping day in Week 5.
Seattle at Cincinnati
Even though Seattle running back Marshawn Lynch is set to miss his second straight game with a hamstring injury, per ESPN.com's Sheil Kapadia, this contest is still very much worth watching, mostly for the battle between Andy Dalton and the Seahawks secondary.
Andy Dalton is playing the best football of his career through the first four weeks of the 2015 season. He's thrown for 1,187 yards, nine touchdowns and just one interception. His 87.7 QBR is by far the highest of his career and is second in the league only to the injured Ben Roethlisberger, per ESPN.com.
He's done a fantastic job of keeping all the various cogs in offensive coordinator Hue Jackson's scheme in place. So far this year, Jackson's offense has used all kinds of unorthodox formations, shifts and play calls.
“This is our thing,” Jackson said, via Cincinnati.com's Paul Dehner Jr.. “This is the Cincinnati Bengal thing. I’m not trying to copycat anybody. This is over the years. I’ve been doing this for quite a while."
“This is my masterpiece, per se, with the rest of the staff.”

Dalton and company run up against Seattle's Legion of Boom secondary, now in excellent form with the return of key cog Kam Chancellor in Week 3 following a lengthy holdout. Since Chancellor's return, the Seahawks shut down the hapless Jimmy Clausen in a 26-0 win over Chicago, then followed that up with a 13-10 takedown of Detroit, a game that ended in controversy following Chancellor forcing a Calvin Johnson fumble at the goal line.
Here's a look at how Clausen and Matt Stafford fared in those games.
| Jimmy Clausen, Chicago | 9/17 | 63 | 3.7 | 0 | 0 | 61.6 |
| Matthew Stafford, Detroit | 24/35 | 203 | 5.8 | 0 | 0 | 83.4 |
Safety Earl Thomas and cornerbacks Richard Sherman and Cary Williams are all fine players in their own right, but Chancellor adds extra levels of security, intimidation and football intelligence.
“He’s a big asset for us,” linebacker Bruce Irvin said, via the Guardian's Les Carpenter. “It’s everything. Leadership. Intimidation. Big plays. Knowledge. Presence. We needed it.”
If Dalton is going to have a big day—or, at least, one good enough to beat Seattle—he can't have another disappearing act from wide receiver Marvin Jones. After scoring in Weeks 2 and 3, Jones caught just one pass for four yards on two targets in Cincinnati's 36-21 win over Kansas City.
Jones has excellent speed and a knack for making big plays downfield, two assets that come in very handy against a suffocating Seattle defense. If he can keep the safety's occupied and conjure up a few big plays, Dalton should be able to work the ball to A.J. Green and tight end Tyler Eifert underneath.
Pittsburgh at San Diego

What, like you were really going to miss out on an awesome duel of polar-opposite QBs—the slick, (still) quick Michael Vick and the goofy, slow side-arming Philip Rivers—in prime time?
Vick might not be the all-world runner that he used to be, but he showed in a 23-20 overtime loss to Baltimore in Week 4 that he still has some boogie left. He carried the ball nine times for 33 yards, 10 of them coming on one play, and he scampered out to throw a nice block for Le'Veon Bell, per Bleacher Report:
He was also very accurate passing on the night, completing 19 of 26 throws, but for a lowly 124 yards. Still, Vick proved he can rely on accumulated football wisdom rather than athleticism if need be.
Pittsburgh's offense should be able to put up points and highlights against San Diego's young defense, with weapons like Vick, Bell and the nigh uncoverable Antonio Brown. It could be a big night for the wideout against a gimpy Bolts secondary. Starting corners Brandon Flowers and Jason Verrett have both missed time this season and are listed as questionable for Monday's game, per Chargers.com.
Second-year wideout Martavis Bryant is eligible to play after serving a four-game suspension. However, he injured his knee in practice this week and doesn't appear likely to suit up, per NFL.com's Michael Fabiano.
The Chargers will see the return of tight end Antonio Gates, back from his own four-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs. He'll join an offense in fine form after a 30-27 win over Cleveland. Rivers threw for 358 yards and three touchdowns with no turnovers and was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his efforts.
ESPN Stats & Info pointed out stat lines like that were nothing new for the Bolts signal-caller:
Keenan Allen (387 yards, three TDs) has been a monster this season, while Danny Woodhead and rookie Melvin Gordon make up a solid running back tandem. With so many offensive stars on both sides of the ball, this has all the makings of a fun, bombastic Monday night in America's Finest City.
