How to buy tickets and watch the NFL divisional playoffs?

If you’re eager to witness the intensity of the NFL Divisional Playoffs in person, securing tickets might seem challenging. It is because the majority goes to the home team’s season ticket holders. However, the secondary ticket market is your go-to option. It offers a chance to snag seats for the excitement. Be sure to act swiftly to secure your spot.

For those planning to buy NFL tickets, platforms like Ticketmaster, StubHub, and NFL.com/tickets provide avenues to make your purchase. Whether it’s booking travel through Booking.com or Expedia or arranging lodging with TripAdvisor, Hotels.com, Hilton, or Hotwire, fans have multiple options to plan their game-day experience.

For those opting to enjoy the playoff action from the comfort of their homes, there are various streaming services available. Services like YouTube TV, Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV, and FuboTV carry the necessary channels for your playoff viewing, per Fox Sports. Alternatively, if you have a good antenna reception, tuning in to your local FOX, CBS, ABC, and NBC stations can be another way to catch the games.
