What channel does the game come on today

If you felt like three days of NFL football a week wasn't enough, then you are going to absolutely love Week 15 of the 2021 NFL season.

With bye weeks over and a 16-game slate back again, the NFL is beginning its annual, late-year Saturday football games. The league no longer has to compete with the college football regular season, so it will take this opportunity to broadcast a couple of solid games to wider audiences and lighten the load of the Sunday slate.

There is only one Saturday game after the NFL's wave of postponements due to COVID-19, but it features two AFC teams fighting for playoff position.

The Patriots (9-4) will head to Indianapolis for a meeting with the Colts (7-6). The Patriots ended Week 14 as the No. 1 seed in the AFC, but they will need to keep pace with the Chiefs down the stretch to keep it. As for Indy, they need a win as they look to emerge as one of the top Wild Card contenders, or as a potential challenger to the Titans for the AFC South title. Browns vs. Raiders, orginally scheduled to kick off Saturday afternoon, will be played Monday instead.

Here's what you need to know about Week 15's Saturday NFL game, including a full schedule, TV channels and more for the two Week 15 battles.

Here's how to watch each of the Saturday NFL game in Week 15.

Patriots vs. Colts

• Kickoff: 8:15 p.m. ET
• TV channel (national): NFL Network
• Live stream: fuboTV

The Patriots will look to earn their 10th win in Week 15 as they try to separate themselves from the pack in the AFC and take a bigger lead on the Bills in the AFC race. They are traveling to Indianapolis to take on the Colts, who will test the Patriots' below-average run defense with Jonathan Taylor, the NFL's leading rusher.

The Colts (7-6) are fighting for a playoff spot so their running game and defense will come ready to play in this one. Whether they can win will depend on how much they can get out of Carson Wentz in a tough matchup. Both teams are coming off bye weeks so they will be fresh and well-rested.

Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen will serve as the play-by-play announcer and color commentator in this game. Pam Oliver and Kristina Pink will be on the broadcast as well, and each will be a sideline reporter.

In Canada, the Patriots-Colts can be watched on CTV2, TSN1/5, and RDS, as well as streamed on DAZN, which offers every NFL game.

The NFL season is winding down, but before fans get the last Sunday of the regular season, four teams will play in a Saturday doubleheader.

The first clash of the day will be an AFC West showdown between the Broncos and the Chiefs, with Kansas City setting its eyes on attempting to win the No. 1 seed in the AFC. It needs both to win on Saturday and for the Titans to lose to the Texans on Sunday.

Another divisional matchup will follow in the evening slate with the two playoff-bound teams, the Eagles and Cowboys, playing against one another in a matchup that will go toward deciding the playoff seeding in the NFC.

Sporting News has viewers covered with all they need to know to watch the Saturday doubleheader.

NFL Week 18 picks: Straight up | Against the spread

What time are Saturday's NFL games on?

Here's how to watch each of the Saturday NFL games in Week 18.

Chiefs at Broncos

The pressure is all on Kansas City in the first of the two games on Saturday.

The Chiefs were in control of their own destiny heading into Week 17 against the Bengals, but a 34-31 loss has put them needing some help to finish as the No. 1 seed in the AFC. Kansas City will now have to beat the Broncos Saturday night and hope the Texans can beat the Titans on Sunday in order to secure that first-round bye and homefield-advantage in the playoffs.

Should they lose, the Chiefs could potentially fall all the way down to the No. 4 seed if the Bengals and Bills then win on Sunday. The last time the two faced off, the Chiefs were outgained 404-267 in total yards, but won the matchup 22-9.

The Chiefs-Broncos game will have the network's top college football grouping on the broadcast for the matchup, with Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit in the booth and Laura Rutledge reporting from the sidelines. John Parry will be the rules expert for the game.

Cowboys at Eagles

The Cowboys are in a similar position to the Chiefs. They had a potential to insert themselves into the conversation for the No. 1 pick though the road was far more challenging for them than Kansas City as they needed the Packers to lose to the Vikings last week.

Not only did the Packers win, but the Cowboys lost to the Cardinals, meaning that now the most likely outcome for Dallas is to wind up as the No. 4 seed in the NFC. There is still a chance for it to move up as high as No. 2, but it requires the 49ers to beat the Rams, Seahawks to beat the Cardinals and Panthers to beat the Buccaneers, all along with a Dallas win against Philadelphia.

The Eagles, on the other hand, are most likely looking at the No. 7 spot in the bracket, but they too can improve their fortunes with a win. Should they beat the Cowboys, it would take just wins from the Rams and Falcons over the Saints for Philadelphia to jump up to No. 6.

The usual ESPN "Monday Night Football" crew will be calling the primetime matchup on Saturday, with Steve Levy, Brian Griese and Louis Riddick in the booth and Lisa Salters reporting from the sidelines. Parry will also be the rules expert for that game.
