One of the NFL's biggest nights of the week boils down to a few things: The final game after a long day of action, a week long of anticipation, and most likely one of the best matchups of the week. If this doesn't have you on the edge of your seat, waiting patiently all day, I'm not sure what will. 

Sunday Night Football in the NFL is the best way to close out the weekend and this holiday season it's a must watch with the flex matchups already on their way. Patriots vs. Ravens was just flexed for Week 16. Drake Maye vs. Lamar Jackson is here!
