The 2025 NFL Playoffs are almost set. This year’s postseason field will feature several new faces, with the Washington Commanders, Minnesota Vikings, Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers all set to compete for Super Bowl LIX. Of course, there are also plenty of well-known teams in the field. Among them are the Kansas City Chiefs, a team that is in the playoffs for the tenth consecutive season.
The Chiefs are also a team that aspires to be first N.F.L history to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
The postseason kicks off on Saturday, January 11 with the Houston Texans hosting the Los Angeles Chargers on CBS and Paramount+. Of the seven games played during Wild Card Weekend, two will air on CBS, including Sunday’s early game in which the Broncos travel to Buffalo to face the Bills.
The final game of Wild Card Weekend will be played on Monday, January 13, with the Los Angeles Rams set to be the losers of Sunday night’s regular season finale between the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions.
Although the AFC playoff field has been finalized, the NFC seedings will not be determined until after Lions-Vikings ends. The winner will capture the NFC North and the No. 1 seed in the NFC, including a bye and home field advantage through the playoffs. The loser takes the NFC’s No. 5 seed and heads straight on the road next week.
