In the AFC, there will be four familiar faces as the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans all made it to the divisional round for the second straight year. This marks just the second time since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970 that a conference has sent the same four teams to the divisional round in consecutive seasons.

Plus, the Texans kept it tight at Arrowhead in Week 16, falling 27-19 even as they were limping to the finish line. Quarterback C.J. Stroud finished 23-of-39 passing for 244 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in that game.
