Week 5 Non-Vikings NFL Discussion

Well, folks, we are not going to be watching the Minnesota Vikings together until this evening. Around here, for those of you that have been a part of the community for a while, you know that can only mean one thing.

That’s right. . .for the first time this season, it’s a RED ZONE SUNDAY here at The Daily Norseman, as we get an opportunity to just sit back and watch what’s happening around the rest of the NFL as we await the main event of the day. So, we want to keep you updated on which games are being shown and where.

Because of COVID-19 and things happening that are connected with that, a few things on this week’s schedule have been shifted around. Here is all of this week’s schedule, courtesy of the good folks at 506 Sports.

The early game will feature the Denver Broncos at the New England Patriots, while the late game will feature the Los Angeles Chargers at the New Orleans Saints. We also have a Tuesday night game this week, with the Tennessee Titans hosting the Buffalo Bills on CBS.

With that, ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to sit back, relax, and watch all of the NFL action for Week 5 prior to the kickoff of Vikings/Seahawks. Enjoy the games, everyone!
