If they aren\u2019t already.<\/p>\n<p>CBS announced its Week 12 assignments, confirming that <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/tag\/jim-nantz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nantz<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/tag\/tony-romo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tony Romo<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/cbs\/tracy-wolfson-nfl-sideline-reporter-jim-nantz-tony-romo.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tracy Wolfson<\/a> will be in Kansas City for the Chiefs\u2019 noon kickoff against the Indianapolis Colts on Nov. 23. That\u2019s the third straight time the network\u2019s top broadcast team will call a Chiefs game, and they\u2019ll make it four in a row when Kansas City visits Dallas on Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<p>National broadcast crews don\u2019t typically follow the same team for four consecutive games. There\u2019s too much football happening, too many other storylines demanding attention from the network\u2019s top voices. But CBS isn\u2019t treating this like a typical situation because <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/tag\/kansas-city-chiefs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Chiefs<\/a> haven\u2019t been a typical team for years now. They\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/ratings\/chargers-chiefs-17-3-million-global-viewers-nfl-youtube-debut.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the league\u2019s biggest television draw<\/a>, and the network is leaning into that reality as hard as it can.<\/p>\n<p>Wolfson shared the news on social media on Thursday after CBS released its assignments.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">It\u2019s official.

This Sunday, they\u2019ll be in Denver for Kansas City\u2019s critical AFC West matchup with the Broncos. The NFL Today studio crew will be there, too.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also Thanksgiving in Dallas, where the Chiefs will take on the Cowboys in what figures to be one of the most-watched games of the entire regular season.<\/p>\n<p>Kansas City\u2019s games against <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/nfl\/eagles-chiefs-rematch-top-audience-week-2.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Philadelphia<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/frontofficesports.com\/cbs-draws-30-8m-for-chiefs-bills-the-nfls-no-2-audience-of-2025\/#:~:text=CBS%20Draws%2030.8M%20for,2%20audience%20of%20the%20season.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buffalo<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/pressbox\/press-releases\/sunday-night-football-registers-record-fourth-blockbuster-audience-of-25-million-viewers-this-season-as-lions-chiefs-averages-27-3-million-viewers-on-nbc-peacock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Detroit<\/a> rank as three of the top four most-watched games this season by viewership, according to NFL data. The league knows what moves the needle. So does CBS. And right now, nothing moves it quite like the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>Which makes next week\u2019s Colts game all the more significant. Indianapolis is 8-2 and one of the best teams in the AFC. This is a legitimate heavyweight matchup between two legitimate contenders. But it wasn\u2019t scheduled for primetime. It can\u2019t be flexed there because of Thanksgiving the following week. It\u2019s stuck in the noon window, which, under normal circumstances, might mean it doesn\u2019t get the top broadcast crew, despite the stakes.<\/p>\n<p>CBS isn\u2019t treating it that way. Nantz, Romo, and Wolfson will be at Arrowhead for the noon kickoff, calling what amounts to a potential playoff preview in the same slot that usually gets reserved for regional games. The Chiefs are that important to the network\u2019s programming. And when they\u2019re playing another AFC contender, CBS will make sure its best team is on the call, regardless of the time slot.<\/p>\n<p>Wolfson has joked about the amount of time she spends covering Kansas City. Earlier this season, she told Awful Announcing that people constantly ask if she has \u201cresidency in Kansas City\u201d given how many Chiefs games she works each year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHonestly, this week alone, the amount of people that came up to me and asked, \u2018Do you have a residency in Kansas City?\u2019 I mean, that\u2019s what it feels like,\u201d Wolfson said before the Bills-Chiefs game. \u201cEach year, I feel like I\u2019m covering eight Chiefs games and at least six Bills games.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This stretch through Thanksgiving won\u2019t do much to change that perception.<\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chiefs fans are about to get very familiar with Jim Nantz\u2019s voice.
