The Wild card round didn't lack drama.

The Texans opened the postseason by making a statement against Justin Herbert and the Chargers, while Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens steamrolled the Pittsburgh Steelers in Saturday's nightcap.

Houston will now face the monumental task of trying to take down a well-rested Chiefs team that is looking to claim its third straight Super Bowl title.

According to DraftKings, the Texans are a hefty 7.5-point underdog entering Saturday's Divisional Round showdown at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Ravens, meanwhile, are narrow 1.5-point road favorites over Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills on the heels of Jackson and Derrick Henry putting on a show against their AFC North rivals.

Over in the NFC, Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders will look to pull off a second straight upset against the top-seeded Detroit Lions following a last-second victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Rams, meanwhile, will eye a return to the NFC title game when they head to Philadelphia to try and unseat Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley and an Eagles team that has not lost at home since Sept. 16.
