FOX Sports is gearing up for an exciting Week 16 doubleheader on December 20, 2025, featuring two NFC showdowns packed with what could be playoff implications. The Philadelphia Eagles will take on the Washington Commanders, followed by the Green Bay Packers battling the Chicago Bears, continuing FOX’s tradition of highlighting critical divisional matchups late in the season. This follows their 2024 Week 16 broadcast, where the Commanders narrowly defeated the Eagles 36-33 in a dramatic finish, as reported by FOX Sports.
The Eagles-Commanders matchup will be heated after last season the Commanders narrowly defeated the Eagles 36-33 in a dramatic finish that saw Philadelphia falter despite a strong performance from Jalen Hurts, who threw for 300 yards in the loss. Washington’s Terry McLaurin will challenge an Eagles defense that struggled last season, giving up 28 passing touchdowns. Rookie of the Year Jayden Daniels paired with McLaurin and newly acquired Deebo Samuels will be key for the Commanders as they aim to repeat their late-game heroics.
Meanwhile, the Packers-Bears game marks the 209th meeting in one of the NFL’s most storied rivalries, with Green Bay holding a 107-95-6 advantage. Chicago’s passing attack, led by the first pick of the 2023 draft, Caleb Williams with emerging receivers Luther Burden III and Rome Odunze joined by veteran DJ Moore, will look to target a Packers secondary that allowed 220 passing yards per game in 2024, as noted by NFL.com. The Packers led by their 2020 first round pick, Jordan Love will have a new target in wide receiver Matthew Golden and first team All-Pro running back Josh Jacobs to test the Bears new coaching staff. This game promises to add another intense chapter to the historic NFC North feud.
That same Saturday of the NFL doubleheader, the College Football Playoffs will be playing a triple-header for the quarterfinals. Christmas is coming early for football fans.
