The Patriots game is part of Saturday’s AFC doubleheader, while the two NFC wild round games are Sunday.

Here’s how to watch every wild card game during the NFL playoffs.

Accounts vs. Texans

(4:35 pm ET kickoff)

Each of Houston’s six appearances since 2011 has begun with Saturday afternoon’s game, a testament to the Texans (10-6) who are rarely a favorite to move on and having a relatively small national following. Buffalo (10-6) made the playoffs for the second time since 2000.

As this is ESPN’s only wild-card round broadcast, it will be called by the regular Monday Night Football crew: Joe Tessitore in the play-by-play, Booger McFarland in the stand as an analyst, and Lisa Salter in the report by slope.

Patriots vs. Titans

(8:15 pm ET kickoff)

New England will rest this weekend, if not for a 27-24 loss to Miami 5-11 in Week 17. The Patriots still won the AFC East, but failed in the first round. Tennessee took the chance of Week 17, winning a wild card spot, beating the Texans 35-14.

CBS sends its top broadcast team to Foxborough. Jim Nantz will handle play-by-play, Tony Romo offers analysis and Tracy Wolfson is on the sideline.

Saints vs. Vikings

(1:05 ​​pm ET kickoff)

New Orleans (13-3) is tied for the best record in the NFC, but lost the tiebreaker to the 49ers and Packers and plays in the first round. This is the first time a team with a record of 13-3 or better has played in the first round since the Saints in 2011-12. The power of the conference meant Minnesota’s 10-6 record is the worst of the NFC play-off teams.

Crew no. 1 Fox covers this game. Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are on the stand, while Erin Andrews and Chris Myers will provide side-by-side reports.

Seahawks vs. Eagles

(4:40 pm ET kickoff)

Seattle (11-5) couldn’t catch the 49ers for the NFC West, but it still reached a wild point. Philadelphia (9-7) held off the Cowboys to beat the weak NFC East.

The show will sound like a Sunday night NBC game. Al Michaels has play-by-play and Cris Collinsworth is the color commentator, with Michele Tafoya and Heather Cox bringing fringe ideas.
