The 2024/25 NFL postseason is set to continue this weekend with the Divisional Round playoffs. Eight teams are still in the running, each battling for a spot in Super Bowl 59, scheduled for February 9 at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome.
However, before they can even think of lifting the prestigious Vince Lombardi Trophy, there are two more playoff rounds to fight through. The postseason has already seen several AFC and NFC teams bow out, including the Los Angeles Chargers, Pittsburgh Steelers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who all suffered losses across the Wild Card Weekend, reports the Mirror.
Entering the fray for the Divisional Round are the Kansas City Chiefs and Detroit Lions, both of whom secured a first-round bye by clinching the AFC and NFC number one seeds, respectively. The Chiefs – whose Christmas Day win against the Steelers saw them secure the number one seed – are on the cusp of a three-peat and could make history as the first NFL team to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
Meanwhile, Detroit are among the 12 teams yet to win a Super Bowl and one of four never to have reached the season finale in its 58-year history. They are now just two games away from the final showdown, with only the Divisional and Conference Championship rounds remaining.
