The Green Bay Packers and the Indianapolis Colts will face off on Sunday in a big game for Week 9 in the NFL 2016 regular season. The game has a scheduled start time of 4.25 p.m. ET and takes place from Lambeau Field in Green Bay. The game can be watched on TV on the CBS network or online through live stream via the link below.
Today's game will see the Packers look to gain a home win that would increase the pressure on the NFC North division leading Minnesota Vikings.
The Vikings have suffered a few stumbles in recent weeks and that has opened the door for the Packers to draw closer to them at the top of the division.
Coming into Week 9 the Vikings are 5-2 compared to the Packers 4-3, and if Green Bay can claim the victory today coupled with another Vikings loss it would leave the teams tied on 5-3.
But the Packers cannot control what happens with Minnesota, and they will be focused on ensuring they claim the win here today against the Colts.
Indianapolis meanwhile is having a torrid season and are 3-5 coming into Week 9. They cannot afford anymore slip ups, and must win today and go on a solid run of wins if they are to remain competitive as the postseason spots get confirmed in December.
Earlier in Week 9 on Thursday Night Football, the Atlanta Falcons and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers met at the Raymond James Stadium in Florida as the Buccaneers looked to get back to an even record with a home win.
However, the high flying Falcons were too much for Tampa Bay and overwhelmed them throughout, claiming a comfortable 43-28 victory to move to 6-3.
That results also dropped the Buccaneers down to 3-5 and their hopes of competing for the postseason now look to be teetering on the edge.
The game saw a dominant Falcons offense that piled on 461 total yards, and quarterback Matt Ryan tortured the Buccaneers defense with 344 passing yards and four touchdowns. In addition, Devonta Freeman added to the pain for Tampa Bay with 77 yards on the ground.
Shockingly in the game, the Buccaneers failed to force even a solitary Falcons' punt, which indicates the overwhelming dominance that Atlanta enjoyed in the big game.
On the other side, the Buccaneers' quarterback Jameis Winston threw 261 yards for three touchdowns, but he did not have enough options going forwards as the Tampa Bay rush attack was blunted badly by an in-your-face Falcons' defense.
As for the Falcons, it looks like they are cruising their way towards the Playoffs.
