Sports Seriously
The NFL season is nearing its end, which means we’re at that time of year when football fans are anxiously awaiting to see if their favorite teams make the playoffs. To help, there are  NFL games on both Saturday and Sunday this week.
The NFL Saturday doubleheader will feature matchups between the Houston Texans and Los Angeles Chargers and the Baltimore Ravens and the Green Bay Packers.
Here’s everything you need to know about Saturday’s doubleheader, including how to watch both games.
Will there be NFL matchups on Saturday?
Yes. There will be a doubleheader on Saturday as the Houston Texans and Los Angeles Chargers face off, followed by a matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and Green Bay Packers.
The Houston Texans (10-5) and the Los Angeles Chargers (11-4) will kick off at 4:30 p.m. ET Saturday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
Date: Saturday, Dec. 27.Time: 4:30 p.m. ET.

When do the Ravens–Packers play Saturday?
The Baltimore Ravens (7-8) visit Lambeau Field on Dec. 27 with their own playoff hopes in dire straits. After losing to the New England Patriots in Week 16, the Ravens need to beat both the Packers and the Steelers in their final two games and the Steelers (9-6) need to lose to the 3-12 Cleveland Browns.
Both the Ravens and Packers are unsure which quarterback will start. Saturday’s game marks the first time since 2021 that the two teams have met during regular season.
Packers quarterback Jordan Love remains in concussion protocol after being knocked out of the Week 16 loss to Chicago and was replaced by Malik Willis, who ended the game with a shoulder injury. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson left the Patriots game with a back injury and was replaced by Tyler Huntley.
Date: Saturday, Dec. 27.Time: 8 p.m. ET.
