The NFL playoffs continue Sunday with the two final divisional round games — the Houston Texans vs. the Kansas City Chiefs at 3:05 p.m. on CBS, followed by the Seattle Seahawks taking on the Green Bay Packers at 6:40 p.m. on Fox.

Jim Nantz and Tony Romo will have the call for Texans-Chiefs, one week after the former Cowboys quarterback turned CBS analyst was brilliant calling Titans head coach Mike Vrabel’s clock-running antics during their wild-card win over the Patriots. Calling Seahawks-Panthers Sunday night are Fox’s No. 1 crew of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.

For Buck, Sunday’s playoff return to Lambeau Field will come 15 years after he famously called Randy Moss’ fake mooning touchdown celebration a “disgusting act” during the NFC wild card game between the Vikings and the Packers in 2004-2005 season, back when his broadcast partner was Cris Collinsworth.

Buck is still mocked and ridiculed about the comments on social media, despite having buried the hatchet with Moss in 2013 (Buck’s wife, Michelle, also works with Moss at ESPN). Speaking to Sports Illustrated’s Jimmy Traina this week, the longtime Fox play-by-play announcer said he stands by what he said.

"It’s a high-wire act every week, every game. It’s not as easy as most people think,” Buck told Sports Illustrated. “Some liked it. Some didn’t.”

“A fake mooning and putting his ass on the goal post to paying fans in a stadium on national TV? I would for sure be regretful if I said nothing,” Buck added. “That’s not how I was brought up."
