I am guessing it will not be available on Fox/ESPN/CBS. My family lives in Wisconsin and they are already complaining about not being able to see the Dallas vs Green Bay game.

Really? From ESPN:

Fans in each local market will be able to see the game. NFL rules require that games televised on cable must be made available to an over-the-air provider in the home market cities.

That article must not be true. Where is it getting this information? My family still insists it isn't available to them. Many are contacting the cable company to complain. The cable company says there is nothing that can be done.
