The NFL playoff bracket is locked in, with the Kansas City Chiefs and Detroit Lions earning a first-round bye and the opportunity to play the lowest-remaining seed in the divisional round. On the AFC side, the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens are considered the Chiefs' top challengers, while the Philadelphia Eagles have the best odds to topple the Lions in the NFC. The Houston Texans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Los Angeles Rams will all get to play home games in the wild-card round, while six other teams will try to recreate the magic of the 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers and win the Super Bowl as a wild card.
