The 2017 NFL playoffs officially get underway Saturday morning! The players on the San Francisco 49ers roster are off golfing, while Jed York and Paraag Marathe are dashing across the country looking for a general manager and head coach. But there is plenty of interesting football to watch this weekend as the playoff road to Super Bowl 51 begins.
Last year, we had AFC wild card games on Saturday, and NFC wild card games on Sunday. This year, they are split up. The weekend opens Saturday with the Houston Texans hosting the Oakland Raiders, and then the Seattle Seahawks hosting the Detroit Lions.
