The San Francisco 49ers will face a huge test of their Super Bowl credentials when they take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8.

San Francisco is looking to get things back on track after successive surprise losses to the Cleveland Browns and the Minnesota Vikings.

But that will be no easy feat against a Bengals team coming off the bye and back at .500 following successive wins over the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks.

Will you be able to watch this fascinating encounter on TV? If you live in any of the red areas on the map below, you will see the game. Much of the country will be able to do so on CBS during the late window.

Indeed, 49ers-Bengals is CBS' national game in the 4:25pm timeslot. However, 49ers fans in much of the midwest, Texas, Colorado and Utah will not be able to watch the game on TV and will see the Kansas City Chiefs' clash with the Denver Broncos. Fans in Nevada and other areas of eastern Nevada have the same problem.

Jim Nantz and Tony Romo will on the call in a game that looks set to see Sam Darnold make his first start at quarterback for San Francisco with Brock Purdy in the concussion protocol.

The Niners are 2-0 in games called by Nantz and Romo, including their Wild Card win over the Dallas Cowboys in the 2021 season. Nantz and Romo have never previously announced a game at Levi's Stadium.
