NFL Playoff Schedule 2024: Wild Card Weekend
The NFL playoffs have arrived, kicking off with the NFL’s Super Wild Card Weekend Saturday, January 13 through Monday, January 15.
Action begins late Saturday afternoon on NBC with the Cleveland Browns at the Houston Texans. For the first time, an NFL playoff game will air exclusively on a streaming service outside of the participating teams’ home markets. Peacock gets the Miami Dolphins at Kansas City Chiefs game on Saturday night. The game is on NBC6 in Miami and on NBC stations in the Kansas City market.
Other intriguing Wild Card matchups have the Green Bay Packers going up against their former head coach, Mike McCarthy, and the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday afternoon. Following that game, the Detroit Lions host their first playoff game since 1993 when the Los Angeles Rams come to Motown. Back in 2021, the Rams and Lions swapped QBs when Rams traded Jared Goff to the Lions for Matthew Stafford, who went on to lead the Rams to a win in Super Bowl LVI.
