The New Orleans Saints are on a collision course with the San Francisco 49ers, but the matchup isn’t quite living up to its billing as a midseason heavyweight fight between two Super Bowl contenders.

Don’t get it twisted — the Saints are rolling, having swept the overrated Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a 38-3 win last week, but the 49ers have lost most of their starting lineup to injuries and are just hoping to get back to .500. New Orleans is heavily favored to win this rematch of last season’s 48-46 boat race, so this game might not be very competitive.

But will you even get the broadcast? Scheduled for a 3:25 p.m. CT kickoff on FOX, this Saints-49ers tilt is not receiving the “America’s Game of the Week” treatment, with a brighter spotlight put on an NFC West joust between the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams. Additionally, Joe Burrow’s Cincinnati Bengals have been flexed into the same time slot for their game with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Thanks to 506sports.com, we have an idea of what the coverage map looks like, which we’ve embedded below. Here’s what each color code means:

  • Green: San Francisco 49ers at New Orleans Saints (Adam Amin, Mark Schlereth)
  • Red: Seattle Seahawks at Los Angeles Rams (Joe Buck, Troy Aikman)
  • Blue: Cincinnati Bengals at Pittsburgh Steelers (Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma)
