Both games will be televised at the same time, for the first time ever, similar to how the NFL Network's RedZone broadcast works.
As usual, the Super Bowl winning brothers will chat to a host of celebrity guests throughout the show, although the names are yet to be announced.
During commercial breaks the games will be televised side-by-side so viewers won't miss a single snap.
