The Cleveland Browns are up against the Houston Texans on Saturday, with Joe Flacco of the Browns seemingly rejuvenated and surpassing all expectations this season. If he wins this game, he will break a record he currently shares with Tom Brady for most wins on the road as a QB in the playoffs. What are his chances against the rookie QB for the Texans?

Kansas City faces Miami at home in -5-degree weather, and it may be difficult for the Dolphins to play under such conditions. The game will only be on Peacock, and there is talk that the extreme weather is a ploy to attract more viewers. Patrick Mahomes has been seen showing some strong emotions on the sidelines after a difficult season for the Chiefs and is now going head-to-head with a former teammate who is playing for the Dolphins. Is that the secret weapon Miami has in store?

Pittsburgh has not won a playoff game in seven years as they roll into Buffalo and severe weather. After winning three games in a row, they have unexpectedly landed in the postseason. Josh Allen is fearless, but is he a turnover machine for the Bills? Can the Steelers take advantage of that to keep their streak going?

Will it be enough to stop the Cowboys after their 17 straight wins at home?
