NFL Playoffs: TV Schedule and Where to Watch Divisional Round Games on the Vineyard

The New England Patriots host the Houston Texans at 4:30 p.m. Sunday in the AFC Divisional Round. Here's a roundup of where and when to catch all the NFL playoff action this weekend.

The divisional round of the NFL playoffs begins this weekend in Denver when the Broncos host the Baltimore Ravens at 4:30 p.m. Saturday. Locally, the New England Patriots host the Houston Texans Sunday at Gillette Stadium. Kick-off in Foxborough is scheduled for 4:30 p.m.

Patriots fans hoping for another AFC Championship game in Foxborough will be tuning in Saturday to cheer on the Ravens against Peyton Manning and the Broncos while fans wanting to see a Brady-Manning showdown with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line will be favoring the Broncos Saturday. 

Of course, in either scenario, the Patriots need to knock off the Houston Texans Sunday to advance.
