How to watch 2024 Pro Bowl Games: TV channel, time, stream

Here’s how to tune in when Josh Allen, Evan Engram, and Ross Matiscik compete against the best players in the NFL.

The Pro Bowl looks a little different after the NFL overhauled the event last year. A half-hearted football game between players uninterested in tackling is no more and its been replaced by a two-day skills competition.

On Thursday, players who were selected by fans, coaches, and their peers, will compete in “Best Catch,” “Precision Passing,” “Closest to the Pin,” “High Stakes,” “Snap Shots,” and “Epic Pro Bowl Dodgeball.”

On Sunday, it’ll be “Kick Tac Toe,” “Move the Chains,” “Gridiron Gauntlet,” “Madden NFL Head-to-Head,” “Tug-of-War,” and “NFL Flag football.”

Among those competing in the events are three Jacksonville Jaguars players: pass rusher Josh Allen, tight end Evan Engram, and long snapper Ross Matiscik.

Here’s how to tune in from home when the AFC and NFC stars compete at the Pro Bowl Games:

Masters of the Air is worthy of its place alongside Band of Brothers and The Pacific

The Apple TV+ WWII epic features phenomenal performances by Austin Butler and Callum Turner.

On January 26, viewers can take to the skies on Apple TV+ thanks to the new miniseries Masters of the Air.

The 9-episode series follows the 100th Bomb Group during World War II as members of the squadron fly harrowing and dangerous missions. It’s the perfect end cap to complete the trilogy started with HBO’s Band of Brothers and The Pacific.

All three series were produced by Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg and Gary Goetzman, and the latest entry is beyond worthy of it’s counterparts. Although the gap between the shows is large, Goetzman explained that it was necessary to ensure the technology was developed enough to properly execute the aviation scenes.

“We go at it like we’re making big movies,” Goetzman told For The Win in a recent interview. “One of the things we realized was we couldn’t do the stories in the air, and then finally when the technology came along — and we found a fantastic visual effects Oscar winner and supervisor in Stephen Rosenbaum — it was finally the time.”

And it was worth the wait.

 

Masters of the Air follows four main characters — Major Gale Cleven (Austin Butler), Major John Egan (Callum Turner), Lieutenant Harry Crosby (Anthony Boyle) and Major Robert Rosenthal (Nate Mann) — throughout their wartime missions and experiences.

Much like Band of Brothers before it, Masters of the Air truly flourishes through the personal connections you form with the characters on screen. Butler and Turner are fantastic, both separately and when paired together. As the narrator, Boyle’s Crosby is wonderful. Mann’s “Rosie” brings an emotional gravitas to the screen. The missions will have you on the edge of your seat, fueled by anxiety and anticipation.

Since there are only about 10 airworthy B-17 bombers left, several models of the plane were built for the series, as were individual cockpits, gunner positions and fuselages for the more practical effects. The actors were put through a couple weeks of bootcamp to learn everything from aviation procedures to how to salute.

Masters of the Air is a triumph, and worthy of its place alongside its Emmy Award-winning predecessors.

The first two episodes are available on Apple TV+ now.

All 3 Jeopardy! contestants whiffed big on an easy $200 St. Louis Cardinals clue

This was supposed to be the easiest clue!

Avid Jeopardy! fans know that quickly providing the correct answer to a clue can be challenging sometimes from the comfort of your couch and surely assume the pressure is 100 times worse when you’re actually playing the game show. The people on the show are filled with a wealth of knowledge, but they don’t know everything.

So sometimes we can’t help but chuckle when contestants struggle with some clues or categories, especially when it comes to sports.

And Friday’s episode of Jeopardy! provided the latest example of all three contestants being totally stumped by a pretty easy question.

In the opening round of the episode, one of the categories was Meet Me in St. Louis, as J-Archive noted. The $200 question, which is supposed to be the easiest of the category, was the last clue left on the board, and every player missed it. The clue was:

Major League Baseball’s Cardinals play their home games at this sudsy arena

Bryan rang in first and said, “What is Budweiser?” before Erin chimed in with: “What is Anheuser?” The third contestant, Rachel, didn’t guess, so no one had Busch Stadium, which was the correct response.

As host Ken Jennings joked, not a lot of baseball fans in this Jeopardy! episode.

NFL reschedules Bills-Steelers playoff game due to dangerous weather in Buffalo

The NFL reschedules its playoff game between the Bills and Steelers due to dangerous weather. Here’s the updated wild-card round schedule:

You don’t see this too often: the NFL rescheduled its wild-card round playoff game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills due to a dangerous weather event closing in on western New York — the area around already-snowbound Highmark Stadium is expected to receive another foot or two of snow over the next 24 hours.

It’s a serious situation. Gusting winds and bands of snow rolling in from Lake Erie are dropping visibility to near-zero, per the National Weather Service.

Hopefully everyone can stay safe and weather the storm. So instead of kicking off in the middle of all that, the Bills and Steelers will square off after the worst has blown over on Monday. The end result? Three days of doubleheaders. Here’s what the NFL wild-card round schedule looks like now:

How to watch Jaguars vs. Titans: TV channel, kickoff time, stream

Here’s how to tune in when the Jaguars try to secure the AFC South title against the Titans.

It’s very simple for the Jacksonville Jaguars after Saturday. If they win Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, they are AFC South champions for the second time in as many seasons with Doug Pederson as head coach. If they lose, their season is over.

The Week 18 contest is high stakes for the Jaguars and a couple other teams. Both the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Buffalo Bills would clinch a playoff berth if the Titans pull the upset and eliminate Jacksonville.

It’s unclear for now who will be starting at quarterback for the Jaguars in what essentially boils down to a playoff game for the team. Third-year starter Trevor Lawrence missed the first game of his career last week due to a shoulder sprain and is expected to be a game-time decision Sunday.

Here’s how to tune in from home when the Jaguars attempt to secure the AFC South title against the Titans:

Jaguars Vs. Titans, Week 18

  • Date: Sunday, Jan. 7, 2023
  • Kickoff Time: 1 p.m ET
  • Location: Nissan Stadium, Nashville, Tenn.
  • TV Channel: CBS
  • Live Stream: FuboTV
  • Commentators: Kevin Harlan, Trent Green

What areas will have the Jaguars vs. Titans on their local TV station?

The Jacksonville Jaguars are a win away from defending their AFC South title. They’re also potentially a loss away from their season ending Sunday in Nashville.

With three teams entering the final week of the season tied for the AFC South crown, the Jaguars will win any tiebreaker so long as they beat the last place Tennessee Titans in Week 18. But a loss would mean a second place finish in the division and Jacksonville would need a couple other results to go its way to sneak into the postseason as a wild card.

It’s not quite an all-or-nothing matchup, but it might as well be for the Jaguars.

When the Jaguars try to cap their regular season with a win to get into the playoffs, they may need to do so without Trevor Lawrence. The third-year quarterback sat out Week 17 with a shoulder sprain and is questionable for the team’s Week 18 game in Tennessee.

In-market fans will have the Jaguars’ Week 18 road game at Nissan Stadium on their local CBS affiliate and can stream the game on fuboTV. Kevin Harlan will be on play-by-play coverage in the booth with Trent Green providing analysis.

Fans in the red area on the map below will have the Jaguars vs. Titans game on their local CBS station at 1 p.m. ET, according to 506sports.com:

Those who aren’t in an area highlighted red will need NFL Sunday Ticket, now offered by YouTube, to watch the Jaguars as an out-of-market game.

How to watch Jaguars vs. Panthers: TV channel, kickoff time, stream

Here’s how to tune in when the Trevor Lawrence-less Jaguars try to get back on track Sunday against the Panthers.

For the first time since drafting Trevor Lawrence in 2021, the Jacksonville Jaguars will be without the quarterback on Sunday.

The third-year passer has battled through several injuries in 2023, but the shoulder sprain he suffered in a Week 16 loss will keep Lawrence out against the Carolina Panthers. Instead, it will be C.J. Beathard taking the reins for a Jaguars team with its playoff hopes disappearing fast.

After four straight losses, the Jaguars are still first in the AFC South but only because tiebreakers put them on top of a traffic jam with the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans. Jacksonville may need to win both of its last two games to get into the postseason and that begins Sunday with a home game against the 2-13 Panthers.

Here’s how to tune in from home Sunday when the Jaguars attempt to finish December with a win against Carolina:

Jaguars Vs. Panthers, Week 17

  • Date: Sunday, Dec. 31, 2023
  • Kickoff Time: 1 p.m ET
  • Location: EverBank Stadium, Jacksonville, Fla.
  • TV Channel: CBS
  • Live Stream: FuboTV

What areas will have the Jaguars vs. Panthers on their local TV station?

The Jacksonville Jaguars are still looking for their first December win and it can’t come fast enough. Last week, the Jaguars were pummeled by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, extending their losing streak to four.

When the Jaguars try to end that slide against the 2-13 Carolina Panthers on Sunday, they’ll be without starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The third-year passer suffered a shoulder sprain in the team’s Week 16 loss, forcing the Jaguars to turn to C.J. Beathard for their final home game of the regular season.

In-market fans will have the Jaguars’ Week 17 home game at EverBank Stadium on their local CBS affiliate and can stream the game on fuboTV. Spero Dedes will be on play-by-play coverage in the booth with Adam Archuleta providing analysis.

Fans in the yellow area on the map below will have the Jaguars vs. Panthers game on their local CBS station at 1 p.m. ET, according to 506sports.com:

Those who aren’t in an area highlighted yellow will need NFL Sunday Ticket, now offered by YouTube, to watch the Jaguars as an out-of-market game.

How to watch Jaguars vs. Buccaneers: TV channel, kickoff time, stream

Here’s how to tune in when the Jaguars try to get back on track Sunday against the Buccaneers.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have backed themselves into a corner after starting December with three straight losses.

Now 8-6, the Jaguars are in a three-way tie with the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans for the AFC South lead. Fortunately for Jacksonville, tiebreakers are in its favor and wins in just two of the last three weeks should be enough to secure the division crown, and almost definitely enough for a wild card berth.

That’s still not a ton of margin for error, though. Especially if the Jaguars can’t end their three-game skid with a Week 16 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The pressure is on, and the Jaguars need a win in the worst way. Here’s how to tune in from home Sunday when the Jaguars attempt to get back on track against Tampa Bay:

Jaguars Vs. Buccaneers, Week 16

  • Date: Sunday, Dec. 24, 2023
  • Kickoff Time: 4:05 p.m ET
  • Location: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Fla.
  • TV Channel: CBS
  • Live Stream: FuboTV

What areas will have the Jaguars vs. Buccaneers on their local TV station?

The Jacksonville Jaguars are still looking for their first December win and it can’t come fast enough. After three straight losses to start the month for Jacksonville, there’s now a three-way tie atop the AFC South.

But if the Jaguars can pull off a road victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 16, they’d be right back on the doorstep of eliminating doubt and clinching the division title.

To pull that off, Jacksonville will need to end a three-game win streak for the Buccaneers that has vaulted them into first in the NFC South.

In-market fans will have the Jaguars’ Week 16 road game in Tampa Bay on their local CBS affiliate and can stream the game on fuboTV. Kevin Harlan will be on play-by-play coverage in the booth with Trent Green providing analysis.

Fans in the blue area on the map below will have the Jaguars vs. Buccaneers game on their local CBS station at 4:05 p.m. ET, according to 506sports.com:

Those who aren’t in an area highlighted blue will need NFL Sunday Ticket, now offered by YouTube, to watch the Jaguars as an out-of-market game.
