My guess is that we get one of the Saturday games. The only other game that might get the prime time slot could be the Packers.
Whatcha think?
 
My guess is the late Saturday game... I'm hoping for this.

That would be ideal. Insures that the team has at least 7 days between games.
 
I'm also hoping we get the late Saturday game although I would expect NFL to give it to Packers if they make it.
 
Just need to stay healthy and get out of cleveland.
 
Too early to tell

Patience buttercups
 
Probably the late Sunday game than travel to Oakland for the early Saturday game.
 
Honestly, the highest seeds should play on Saturday to get a possible 1 day advantage. NFC #3 and AFC #3, but I doubt they do it that way.
 
I'm hoping for the early slot...so I can watch the game.

As it stands now:
Steelers-Dolphins
Texans-Chiefs
Seahawks-Lions
Packers-Giants

Those NFC games both look like better matchups. I would guess Packers-Giants Saturday night and Seahawks-Lions Sunday late afternoon.

I think Redskins are going to end up beating the Giants so they would play the Seahawks. That'll probably be the early Saturday game at 4pm instead of 1pm Sunday due to the west coast time.

I think we get the late game Sunday or Saturday.
 
last year, we played the Bengals in the night time slot, with the AFC games on one day and the NFC on the following day.
They could flip flop that this year, depending on the matchups.
the KC-Chargers and Raiders-Broncos game may dictate how the playoff games are scheduled.

For reference, Texans-Chiefs were the late afternoon game on Saturday last year. I believe that's the least desirable time slot and probably the worst matchup as Fox and CBS probably get their choice of games for Sunday.
 
I'm thinking late Sunday. NFL likes the Steelers in this lot.
Saturday night in prime time works, but Miami/KC is not a sexy match-up for NFL.
 
As popular as the Steelers are nationwide - and with NE and Dal sitting out - they'll likely get a late slot.

Well then I wouldn't be surprised to see that matchup at the same slot, if the seeding ends up that way.
