The divisional round continues, with the Detroit Lions hosting the Washington Commanders for an NFC must-watch showdown.

The Lions' impressive regular season record of 15-2, tying with the Kansas City Chiefs for the best record in the league, and securing the No. 1 seed in the NFC, sets the stage for an exciting divisional round. Veteran quarterback Jared Goff's outstanding regular season, with a 72.4% completion rate, 37 touchdowns, and only 12 interceptions, has earned him a spot as the starting QB for the Pro Bowl. Goff's aim to carry this momentum into the divisional round.

The Commanders' journey to the divisional round has been marked by a thrilling 23-20 victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC wild-card game. This victory, the franchise's first playoff win since 2006, is a significant milestone. Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels emerged as the leader the Commanders needed, achieving a completion rate of 68.6% with 268 yards and two touchdowns, which significantly contributed to the win. The Commanders' defense excelled, holding the Buccaneers to just 20 points—a remarkable achievement, considering Tampa Bay had one of the best scoring offenses during the season, averaging 29.5 points per game.
