The NFL playoffs are here. The postseason is starting with the Wild Card Weekend, which will define the teams that will face in the divisional round. Throughout four days six games will be played, with the Cleveland Browns at the Houston Texas as the first matchup.

Some teams like the Cowboys, the 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs (last year’s Super Bowl champions) will be in the playoffs. However, there are some new names in the Wild Card Weekend like the Houston Texans, the Cleveland Browns and the Detroit Lions, three teams that have never been to a Super Bowl.

While these teams face off, the San Francisco 49ers from the NFC and the Baltimore Ravens from the AFC both earned byes, so they will go straight to the divisional round, which puts them closer to the big game.

This weekend, the big favorites are the Kansas City Chiefs, who seem determined to win the Super Bowl one more time, and they could face the Dallas Cowboys, one of the most popular teams in America, which hasn’t won the Bowl since 1995. Here’s everything you need to know about this round.

When will the Wild Card weekend be played?

Wild Card weekend will begin on Saturday, January 13, and will end on Monday, January 15.
