NFL on ESPN – ESPN brings another seven live games in NFL Week 14, as the regular season enters its home stretch with the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys the feature match and Buffalo Bills facing the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Week 14 actions begins on Friday December 8 at 12.15pm AEDT live on ESPN with the New England Patriots meeting the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Patriots will be looking to finish the campaign on a high following a 2-10 season that has them sitting at the bottom of the division.
Pittsburgh remains in the playoff race, as the #5 rank in the AFC, and cannot afford to drop this one at such a crucial point of the season.
Monday December 11 then sees four games back-to-back, as well as NFL RedZone available on the ESPN App*.
Beginning at 5am AEDT on ESPN, the Los Angeles Rams continue their playoff push against the Baltimore Ravens.
The Rams are on the rise at the right time having won their last three games in a row.
But they face a major test in Week 14 against the Ravens – a team that will be firmly amongst the Super Bowl favourites come the business end of the playoffs.
Baltimore will be refreshed coming off a bye in Week 13 and will enjoy home field advantage as well.
Also, at 5am AEDT on ESPN2, the Detroit Lions face off against fellow NFC North rivals Chicago.
Top vs bottom in the division and a game the Lions will be firm favourites in.
Chicago have enjoyed a week break and were winners last time out in Week 12 against the Vikings – so they are capable of springing a surprise and dealing a major blow to their divisional rivals.
Following at 8.25am AEDT, the Buffalo Bills collide with the Kansas City Chiefs.
It is make or break time for the Buffalo Bills as they sit on the playoff bubble at 6-6.
These two have produced some classic encounters in recent history and the Bills will need to find some magic to propel them to a much-needed victory over the Chiefs.
There’s hope for them, with the Chiefs going down to Green Bay last week 27-19 – sliding Kansas City to #4 in the AFC.
Concluding Monday’s NFL marathon is the huge NFC East showdown between the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys at 12.15pm AEDT.
The fight for the divisional title is on, and the Cowboys sit just a win behind the Eagles, courtesy of their four-game unbeaten stretch.
Philadelphia was rocked by the 49ers last round, crashing to a 42-19 defeat.
The two sides last met just over a month ago, where the Eagles prevailed in a thriller 28-23.
This one will have major ramifications over the NFC East and the playoff picture and is must see TV.
Tuesday December 12 brings two games across two channels as Monday Night Football multiplies in Week 14.
Live at 12.15pm AEDT on ESPN, the Tennessee Titans face the Miami Dolphins.
The Dolphins are flying on the eve of the post-season, holding the top spot in the AFC.
A 45-15 demolition of the Commanders against highlighted their offensive power, as Tua Tagovailoa pulled the strings.
Tennessee will be seeking a late season turnaround but will start outsiders against a red-hot Dolphins outfit.
Over on ESPN2 at 12.15pm AEDT, the Green Bay Packers meet the New York Giants.
The Packers are on the move, winning three straight to revive their campaign at 6-6 and place them in the wildcard race.
Green Bay orchestrated a huge win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13 that stunned the NFL.
The post-season hopes of the Giants are slim, and they simply must keep winning. Back-to-back victories have kept the door to the post-season open but would be effectively slammed shut should they go down to the Packers.
