The 2024 NFL season continues - and you can follow it every step of the way live on Sky Sports on the road to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.
A bumper festive schedule features eight games live on Sky Sports NFL before the end of the year, kicking off on Boxing Day night when the Seattle Seahawks (8-7) visit the Chicago Bears (4-11), with kickoff in the early hours of Friday.
A Saturday double-header then sees the Los Angeles Chargers (9-6) take on the New England Patriots (3-12) from 6pm, followed by the Denver Broncos (9-6) against the Cincinnati Bengals (7-8).
The Philadelphia Eagles (12-3) will look to bounce back from their defeat to the Washington Commanders when they host the Dallas Cowboys (7-8) at 6pm on Sunday, before two NFC Super Bowl contenders collide when the Green Bay Packers (11-4) meet the Minnesota Vikings (13-2), the latter of which still have a shot at the No 1 seed.
The penultimate week of the regular season concludes Monday night as the Detroit Lions (13-2) visit the already-eliminated San Francisco 49ers (6-9).
