Sunday Night Football (NBC)
Minnesota Vikings (7-8) at Green Bay Packers (12-3): Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth
Green Bay can move one step closer to clinching the NFC’s top seed and deliver a dagger to the Vikings’ playoff hopes in this one. Mike Tirico hops on the mic as Al Michaels will get the week off.
Monday, Jan. 3
Cleveland Browns (7-8) at Pittsburgh Steelers (7-7-1): Steve Levy, Brian Griese, Louis Riddick
The final Monday night game of the season is a de facto elimination game as the Browns head to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers. The Manningcast is back after a lengthy hiatus which will add some intrigue to this game for neutral viewers.
