SALT LAKE CITY – What many consider the best weekend of pro football every season is upon us. Each conference is down to four teams after the NFL playoffs started, with an overall dud on Wild Card Weekend.
The Divisional Round kicks off on Saturday, January 18, when the defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs host the fourth-seeded Houston Texans at 2:30 p.m. MT.
