The Seattle Seahawks may be enjoying a weekend off at home, but Wild Card Weekend still offers plenty of must-watch action for the 12th Man. The NFL has spread the six Wild Card matchups over three days, with two games scheduled for Saturday.
As usual, Seahawks Wire is here with all the details on when, where, and how to watch the postseason games. From a Seattle perspective, Saturday’s slate features the two matchups that matter most for potential playoff implications.
Game 1 – Rams vs. Panthers
Kickoff: 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time
TV: FOX (Streaming available on FUBO, which offers a free trial)
Announcers: Joe Davis and Greg Olsen
Overview: Carolina protected its home field in Week 13, edging Los Angeles 31–28. Despite that result, oddsmakers remain confident in the Rams, listing them as 10.5-point road favorites. Among Seattle’s possible playoff opponents, Los Angeles appears to be the most likely to advance, setting up a potential divisional-round rematch at Lumen Field.
Game 2 – Packers vs. Bears
Kickoff: 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time
TV: Amazon Prime Video
Announcers: Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit
Overview: A Packers victory would send the No. 7 seed directly to Seattle, making this outcome especially appealing for Seahawks fans. Green Bay enters the postseason after dropping four straight games, including a late-season loss in Chicago. Still, history favors the Packers—the Bears have not eliminated Green Bay in the playoffs since December 14, 1941, just one week after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
