Another day of NFL Wild Card action comes to a close with the New England Patriots hosting the Los Angeles Chargers. The matchup features two of the NFL’s elite starting quarterbacks still looking for their first playoff win.
Second-year QB and MVP candidate Drake Maye will make his playoffs debut today as the Patriots look to win their first home playoff game since the 2018 run that ended with a Super Bowl title.
Los Angeles’ Justin Herbert is in his sixth year with the Chargers, but he’s entering today with an 0-2 playoff record. Herbert and other Chargers starters did not play in last weekend’s regular season finale, so they’re entering tonight’s playoff game well-rested.
