The postseason shifts to the divisional round with marquee matchups highlighted by rematches from the regular season.
Kansas City begins its title defense and quest to become the first team in NFL history to win three Super Bowl championships in a row when they host the Houston Texans in Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs beat the Texans in Week 16 of the regular season.
One of the other big rematch games is the battle between MVP candidates when quarterback Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens hit the road to face QB Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. The Ravens defeated the Bills in Week 4 during the regular season.
And the Los Angeles Rams are seeking revenge against the Philadelphia Eagles when the teams clash in Philly this weekend. Philadelphia dominated the Rams when they met in Week 12 in SoFi Stadium.
