As per NFL policy, anytime a team has a home game, no game may be played opposite to it on another network. Also, CBS has the doubleheader this week. Props to the folks at the506 for this information. Their site is of great use when networks host more than 1 game at the same time.

NFL Blackout Policy in our area!
So, in the DC/Baltimore Area, the NFL has a Blackout Policy with either team hosting a home game. During Week 1, both teams had a home game, but the Ravens played at 1pm, while the Redskins played at 4pm. For the rest of the season, here's how it'll shape up.
Firstly, each station that has a double header is listed at the top. Then the list of possible games in included after the slots are reserved for each game.
Secondly, any local game (the Ravens and Redskins) will have their game shown in their entirety. If the game is at 1pm and it's part of a doubleheader, they will not cut away to show the second game. If the game is at 4:15pm and the 1pm game has not finished, it will cut from the 1pm game to the 4:15pm game.
Also, of note, if a station has a double headers, all their games will be scheduled at 1pm and 4:15 to help deal with overrun of the early games. If a station does not have doubleheaders, the games will start at 1pm and 4:05 pm because there is not the risk of early games overrunning the later game.
Third, the NFL rules prohibit other NFL games from being shown on local television stations while a local team is playing a sold out, locally televised home game. The rules are designed to encourage ticket-holders show up at the stadium instead of watching another game on television.
Fourth, when the home team is being shown on the network with the NFL single game, the doubleheader station can only air one of its games. When this happens, there are only two games shown in the market. However, when the home team is being shown on the network with the NFL doubleheader, all three games can air in the same market.
