The NFL announced finalized playoff pairings with television designations Monday evening following the conclusion of the Houston Texans’ 30-6 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Houston, the No. 5 seed, will travel to the second-seeded New England Patriots in the 3 p.m. ET AFC divisional game on Sunday, scheduled to air on ABC/ESPN.

The AFC’s sixth-seeded Buffalo Bills will visit the No. 1 seed Denver Broncos on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. ET on CBS/Paramount+.

San Francisco and Seattle will play for the second time in 15 days on Saturday in the NFC divisional round, with the top-seeded Seahawks playing host to the sixth-seeded 49ers at 8 p.m. ET on FOX/FOX One.

The final game of the weekend will be the Bears hosting the Rams. No. 2 Chicago and No. 5 Los Angeles will meet on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET on NBC/Peacock.

Buffalo, fresh off a win at Jacksonville, has its eyes set on its second straight AFC Championship Game appearance and is two wins away from its first Super Bowl appearance since 1993. Denver is looking to make its first conference championship game since the last time it won a Super Bowl in the 2015 season.

The Seahawks and 49ers split their regular-season series, with Seattle winning in Week 18 to clinch the NFC’s top seed. Seattle is looking to advance to its first NFC Championship Game since the 2014 season while San Francisco would make its fourth appearance in the last five seasons with a victory.

The Patriots, fresh off their first playoff win since 2018, the year they won their last Super Bowl, will meet Houston for the third time in a postseason contest, with New England taking the two previous matchups, in 2013 (41-28) and 2017 (34-16).

Chicago, which rallied to beat Green Bay for its first playoff win since January 2011, would advance to the NFC Championship Game for the first time in the same span if it can beat the Rams, who are looking for their first conference title game appearance since the 2021 season, the last time they won a Super Bowl.
