Livescore
On Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET, the 10-3 Bills and 12-1 Lions will kick off in Detroit, and at the same time the 10-3 Steelers and 11-2 Eagles will kick off in Philadelphia. That gives the NFL a great pair of late-season games, the likes of which football fans rarely get to experience.
The last time the NFL had two different games matching up teams with double-digit wins in Week 15 or earlier was in 1985. That year, Week 15 saw the 13-1 Bears beat the 10-4 Jets, while the 10-4 Dolphins beat the 10-4 Patriots.
Bills-Lions and Steelers-Eagles are a great pair of games, but the unfortunate thing is that they kick off simultaneously, meaning football fans can’t give their undivided attention to both. Many fans will watch on two screens with one showing Bills-Lions on CBS and the other showing Steelers-Eagles on Fox, but it would have been great to have at least one of those games in prime time.
These are two of the best games of the season, with major implications for playoff seeding in both conferences. And they might just be a preview of the Super Bowl.
