Guide Note

This page contains the schedule and other news and information pertaining to the ninth week of the 2008 season in the National Football League. The games will be played on Sunday November 2 and Monday November 3. As the calendar turns from October to November, the schedule begins to heat up. For a sixth straight week, several teams will not play due to their bye week. This means that the Chargers, 49ers, Panthers, and Saints all are idle. For a second consecutive week, FOX Sports has the doubleheader nationally, and features the NFC East power struggle between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants. Also on the docket is another strange sounding game for old school fans: Cardinals at St. Louis. After a bye week of it's own, Sunday Night Football returns with a game that has become one of the better cross-division rivalries over the last few years as the New England Patriots visit the Indianapolis Colts. Monday Night Football rounds out the week as the Washington Redskins host the Pittsburgh Steelers.
