Green Bay Packers fans will have to wait until Sunday of the NFL Divisional Playoffs to see if the Chicago Bears’ season comes to an end. Chicago hosts the Los Angeles Rams in the final game of Divisional weekend, with Saturday instead featuring both #1 seeds in action against their conferences’ #6 teams.
First up is the AFC, where the top-seeded Denver Broncos host Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. Then it’s yet another NFC West matchup, with the rested Seahawks welcoming in the San Francisco 49ers.
The AFC game is not a rematch of a regular season game from 2025, but these two teams did play in the Wild Card round last season. Buffalo hosted that game as the AFC’s #2 seed, drubbing Denver 31-7 en route to another AFC Championship Game loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. This year the roles are reversed, with Denver as the home team a week later in the postseason.
On the other hand, the Seahawks and 49ers meet for the second time in 15 days, having closed out the season with a matchup that decided the division and the NFC’s #1 seed. That decision went to Seattle in a 13-3 slog on Saturday night of Week 18; the Seahawks’ defense completely stymied Brock Purdy and the 49ers’ offense, which gained just 173 total yards. That matchup bookended the regular season for both teams, who also met in a 17-13 49ers win back in Week 1.
