The NFL playoffs are upon us, which means Super Bowl LIX is just a few weeks away. Fourteen teams remain alive after they battled for months to make the playoffs and are set to embark on a month-long sprint to try and earn a berth in New Orleans and hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

The Chiefs may be inevitable, but the Lions are a monster, Vikings are chaos and Steelers, uh, would like you to forget about December

The Detroit Lions are the team to beat in the NFC, but this conference's wild-card teams put up more fight than their AFC counterparts.

Here's who NFC teams want to see—and don't want to see—for their best chance at lifting the Lombardi Trophy next month.

The four NFC and four AFC division champions and six wild-card teams - the three non-division winners with the best records in each conference - will compete in a single elimination tournament. The final four will play in the AFC and NFC championship games on Jan.

While the regular season suggests a Detroit Lions-Kansas City Chiefs clash for Super Bowl 59, everyone is vulnerable -- especially in a league where a dozen teams have to fight their way up from the Wild Card round.

The NFL playoffs begin this weekend, and the Kansas City Chiefs are aiming for a historic three-peat. But who will be playing this weekend, and how does the schedule work?
