The NFL playoffs have arrived. The league has released the confirmed schedule during “Sunday Night Football.”
Super Wild Card weekend will kick off on Saturday, Jan. 13, with the Houston Texans hosting the Cleveland Browns and conclude on Monday with the Philadelphia Eagles traveling to Florida for a date with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The game between the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins on “Sunday Night Football” solidified the Bills as the AFC’s No. 2 seed after they defeated the Dolphins to clinch their fourth straight AFC East title.
The NFC playoff picture has been finalized.

In one key NFC matchup, the Lions will host their first home playoff game in 30 years as they welcome back former quarterback Matthew Stafford, who led Detroit to the playoffs three times, but never at Ford Field. Meanwhile, Lions quarterback Jared Goff will face the team that traded him to Detroit.
Fans will be treated to three straight days of postseason competition with the divisional round playoffs schedule announced next weekend. The NFC and AFC No. 1 seeds in the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens will face the worst remaining seed in the divisional round.
