The NFL regular season is done and the road to Super Bowl 60 is under way.
The Philadelphia Eagles are back in the playoffs with hopes of raising the trophy again, but this will be the first NFL postseason since 2014 without the Kansas City Chiefs.
That opens the door for a potential new champion in 2026. The Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks enter the playoffs as the top seeds but they will have plenty of competition from experienced sides and upstarts alike.
Here's everything you need to know to watch all the gridiron action on the way to the final.
