Late December is heaven for football fans.
Not only does college bowl season begin — kicking off on Friday with the Bahamas Bowl and the Tailgreeter Cure Bowl — but the NFL adds some Saturday games to the schedule this week.
Week 15 offers up a pair of Saturday games with playoff implications. The Cleveland Browns host the Las Vegas Raiders in the early slot, while on Saturday night the New England Patriots travel to Indianapolis to take on the Colts.

How will this matchup look on Saturday night? Let’s dive into this from all angles.
