The Bengals kicked off the wild-card round with a close win over the Raiders -the franchise's first playoff victory in 31 years - to book a date with the No. 1 seed Tennessee Titans, who earned the lone AFC bye to the divisional round.
The Buffalo Bills exorcised their demons in the late Saturday game by beating down the New England Patriots thanks to a near-perfect offensive performance from Josh Allen and Co.
Meanwhile, the San Francisco 49ers held off a late rally from the Dallas Cowboys to earn a shot at taking down the NFC's top team, the Green Bay Packers.
The Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes put together a master class against the Pittsburgh Steelers in what could be Ben Roethlisberger's final career game, with the former MVP throwing five touchdowns and 404 yards to conclude Sunday's slate.
Finally, the Los Angeles Rams, who dominated the Arizona Cardinals in the inaugural Monday night playoff game, will visit Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next in the divisional round.
