Genuine question, how does the NFL decide these things?

I believe it's up to the local networks which games they want to carry.

local affiliate decides which game it believes will pull in viewers
the 1 main rule is the affiliates in a NFL market can NOT immediately oppose the local team on another network if that network doesn't have the doubleheader that week
for example... CBS has the doubleheader this week... so WWL-TV in NOLA will have a game showing at noon this week while the Saints are playing on Fox 8
but if Fox had the doubleheader this week... WWL-TV would be restricted to 1 of the 2 CBS late games... Patriots @ Chargers or Eagles @ Packers (PHI/GB would probably be the easy choice for WWL)
