NFL Divisional Playoff Predictions: Ravens or Bills?
For fans of NFL football, the divisional playoff round is often seen as one of the most thrilling weekends of the year. This round features doubleheader games with the eight teams still in contention, including the return of both No. 1 seeds.
This year’s slate features three rematches from the regular season, starting with Saturday’s game between the Houston Texans and the Kansas City Chiefs – K.C. secured a victory in their previous meeting last month at Arrowhead Stadium, as they aim for a historic third consecutive Super Bowl title. Later that evening, the Detroit Lions will be looking to reach the NFC Championship for the second year in a row (and only the third time in franchise history) as they face rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels and the rising Washington Commanders.
On Sunday, the action kicks off with the Los Angeles Rams taking on the Philadelphia Eagles, two months after RB Saquon Barkley rushed for 255 yards in a win for the Rams. But the highlight of Sunday is the evening matchup between Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, both strong candidates for this season’s MVP award, in the cold of Western New York. The Ravens triumphed over the Bills in Week 4, but four years prior, they managed only three points in a chilly playoff loss in Buffalo.
