This weekend, the NFL postseason moves into the Divisional round. Eight teams will go in — but only four will come out.
The action kicks off with the Tennessee Titans (12-5) hosting the Cincinnati Bengals (11-7) at 3:30 p.m. Arrowhead Time on Saturday. The game will be carried on CBS and Paramount+ — locally on KCTV/5. Then turn to FOX (WDAF/4 in Kansas City) for the San Francisco 49ers (11-7) playing the Green Bay Packers (13-4) at Lambeau Field. Kickoff is set for 7:15 p.m. CT.
On Sunday, NBC and Peacock (KSHB/41) will carry the Los Angeles Rams (13-5) on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (14-4) at 2 p.m. Then settle in for what may be one of the best games of the entire postseason: the Buffalo Bills (12-6) coming to Arrowhead Stadium to play the Kansas City Chiefs (13-5) at 5:30 p.m. on CBS, Paramount+ and KCTV/5. As always, check out DraftKings Sportsbook for the odds on all the divisional games.

Kristian and Pete are ranked first (!) and fifth overall, Ron Kopp is eighth head-to-head (with Kristian 20th), Mark Gunnels and Pete are third and 12th against the spread — and finally, Jared, Kristian and Pete rank second, seventh and 18th in over/under.
