Wild Card Weekend Over, Divisional Round Next

After a cold weekend of Wild Card games, NFL fans are looking forward to the divisional round of the NFL Playoffs.

NFC

In what could be the biggest game for the NFC, the Detroit Lions host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. The Lions could make history by winning multiple playoff games in the same season for the first time since 1957.

The Houston Texans will visit the Baltimore Ravens, who also had a bye as the top-rated team, on Saturday in Lamar Jackson’s first postseason game since the 2020 season and C.J. Stroud’s first year. The get-in price for the game, which will air on ESPN, ABC and ESPN+ at 4:30 p.m. ET, is $145, with lower level tickets starting at $275.

Patrick Mahomes will play his first road playoff game when the Kansas City Chiefs travel to play the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. The Bills have kicked the Chiefs out of the postseason in two of the past three seasons. To get into the game, fans will pay at least $177, or $212 for the lower level. Home viewers can tune into CBS at 6:30 p.m. ET to catch the game.

The AFC and NFC Championships will take place at 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. ET, respectively, on Sunday, January 28. The AFC game will be aired on CBS and the NFC on FOX.

The winners will compete in Super Bowl LVIII at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, February 11 in Las Vegas.
