The Seattle Seahawks are set to capture national attention this month with a series of thrilling games, including back-to-back Thursday night matchups against the San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys. However, the spotlight will particularly shine on the Seahawks' clash with the Baltimore Ravens this Sunday, as it takes top billing on CBS's regional slate.

Providing play-by-play coverage in Baltimore will be Jim Nantz and Tony Romo, who interestingly have been on the call for the Seahawks' previous three losses. While this may be purely coincidental, it may raise eyebrows for the superstitious fans. Nevertheless, Week 9 offers several compelling games, although the CBS lineup, apart from Seahawks-Ravens, might be considered a horror show.

The alternative match options offered by CBS include Buccaneers-Texans, Bears-Saints, Cardinals-Browns, and Colts-Panthers. Unfortunately, only the 4-3 Browns possess a record above .500 among these matchups. Thankfully, 506 Sports has provided the coverage map and commentator details, indicating that the chances of being in one of the red broadcast areas for the Seahawks-Ravens clash are high. Undoubtedly, an overwhelming majority of US television markets will be tuning into this highly anticipated game.

Turning our attention to FOX, whereas the late game doubleheader featuring the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles is undoubtedly an A+ must-watch game, the morning slate falls considerably short. Most of the country will witness the underwhelming 3-5 Los Angeles Rams take on the struggling 2-6 Green Bay Packers. It's safe to say that the morning games may not captivate viewers as much as the highly anticipated afternoon showdown.

However, spare a moment to sympathize with those unfortunate souls who will be subjected to the New York Giants-Las Vegas Raiders matchup instead of the marquee Cowboys-Eagles clash. It is indeed a testament to the plethora of lackluster and underperforming teams this season.

In conclusion, the Seattle Seahawks will bask in the national spotlight this month, thanks to their consecutive Thursday night games and prominent matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Whether it's the CBS regional slate or the highly-anticipated Cowboys-Eagles encounter on FOX, football fans across the country can expect an exciting weekend filled with both compelling games and disappointments.
