The NFL postseason officially begins on Saturday, January 11. But first… Week 18!

A number of teams are battling for a playoff spot, with the Miami Dolphins, Cincinnati Bengals, and Atlanta Falcons still alive as we head into the final weekend of the regular season. Atlanta needs a win over the Carolina Panthers and a New Orleans Saints victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win the NFC South, while NFL.com gives the Dolphins and Bengals a 12% chance and a 6% chance of earning a playoff spot, respectively.

Cincy needs a little bit… okay, okay… a lot of help. Joe Burrow and company will clinch a postseason berth with a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers and losses by the Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins. The Broncos will host a Kansas City Chiefs team that is expected to rest their starters, while the Dolphins will travel to New Jersey to take on Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. Prepare for a wild weekend of NFL action.

When does Week 18 of the NFL season start? Is Thursday Night Football on tonight? Here’s everything you need to know.

Nope. Sadly, Thursday Night Football is done for the season.

That’s a negative, but Prime Video’s NFL coverage will continue into the postseason.

The streamer will offer a special presentation of a Wild Card playoff game on either Saturday, January 11 or Sunday, January 12. The full postseason schedule will be announced after the conclusion of the regular season on Sunday, January 5.

There’s no TNF or Monday Night Football, but we do have two Saturday games!
