Game Previews
Houston Texans vs Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes, are once again favorites in the AFC. The Texans are coming off a gutsy Wild Card win, but can rookie QB C.J. Stroud handle the heat at Arrowhead? Keep an eye on Travis Kelce, who has been a nightmare for defenses all year, and the Texans’ aggressive defense, which will try to disrupt Kansas City’s rhythm.
Washington Commanders vs Detroit Lions
Detroit has been the surprise package of the season, with Jared Goff finding a new level of consistency. The Commanders rely on their defensive front to make plays, but can they slow down Amon-Ra St. Brown and Detroit’s dynamic offense? This game might hinge on turnovers, so expect plenty of hard-hitting action.
Los Angeles Rams vs Philadelphia Eagles
A heavyweight battle is set between Jalen Hurts and Matthew Stafford. The Eagles have been dominant all season, but the Rams’ pass rush, led by Aaron Donald, could make things interesting. Philadelphia’s offensive line will need to be at its best to protect Hurts. Expect this game to be physical and potentially the most entertaining of the weekend.
Baltimore Ravens vs Buffalo Bills
Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson are two of the most electrifying QBs in the league. The Bills’ high-powered offense goes up against Baltimore’s resilient defense in a game that could come down to which team executes better in the fourth quarter. Will Stefon Diggs take over, or will the Ravens’ run game dominate the clock?
