We're onto the divisional round of the 2021 NFL playoffs. On Sunday, the Rams will try to shut down Tom Brady and the Buccaneers, and the Bills and Chiefs will try to come out on top of what should be a shootout.
How can each team playing on Sunday continue their playoff run at least another week and earn a bid to the conference championship games? We took a closer look at the game tape and outlined the winning blueprint for all eight teams. For each of the divisional-round matchups, we identified the biggest thing each team must do to create an advantage and win, picked a played to watch and pointed to a scheme that could make all the difference in the outcome.
