The New England Patriots will face the Los Angeles Chargers in the first round of the NFL playoffs Sunday night.
The New England Patriots face off with the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night in the AFC Wild Card. Nick Wright, Chris Broussard, and Kevin Wildes ask if the Patriots are in trouble, and they ask how much pressure is on Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills to win a Super Bowl this season.

Jim Nantz (play-by-play) and Tony Romo (analyst) will call the game for CBS with Tracy Wolfson reporting from the sideline. On the radio, the game will be nationally broadcast on Sports USA and locally broadcast on KOA 850 AM & 94.1 FM.
Justin Herbert and his broken left hand are rested and ready to lead the Los Angeles Chargers into the playoffs.
