Before the shift to a 14 team playoff in 2020, the NFL had kept the playoffs very consistent for quite some time. In fact, it was the first time since 1990 that the playoff format had been altered, having gone from a 10 to 12 team format at the outset of the ’90s.

The two home teams took care of business on the first day of the wild-card round of the NFL playoffs, as the Houston Texans defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 32–12, and the Baltimore Ravens capped off the night by sending the Pittsburgh Steelers packing with a 28–14 victory.

The NFL postseason kicks off with Wild Card Weekend starting on Saturday, Jan. 11. Follow our NFL playoff bracket and make your selections for this year's playoffs.
