FOXBOROUGH, Mass. —

The New England Patriots are advancing to the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs after they dominated the Los Angeles Chargers in a Sunday night AFC Wild Card showdown.

Patriots Coach Mike Vrabel took a moment to recognize the fans who turned out at Gillette Stadium for the first playoff game in Foxborough in six years.

“I thought it was amazing. It starts with our willingness to play to a style that our fans appreciate. We’ve talked about that for as long as I can remember — that of we play to a certain style they will embrace that and they will cheer for us,” Vrabel said.

The big question is: Who will make the trip to Foxborough to face the Patriots on Sunday? Patriots Nation will know that answer later Monday when the Houston Texans face the Steelers in Pittsburgh.

Texans coach DeMeco Ryans and quarterback C.J. Stroud have made the playoffs in each of their three years together in Houston, overcoming an 0-3 start this season. The NFL’s No. 1 defense, led by Will Anderson Jr., Danielle Hunter, Derek Stingley Jr. and Jalen Pitre, makes the Texans a Super Bowl contender despite a No. 5 seed. That’s why they’re a road favorite.

The Steelers won the AFC North when Baltimore’s Tyler Loop missed a 44-yard field-goal attempt wide right. Aaron Rodgers was in vintage form in the fourth quarter to lead Pittsburgh without DK Metcalf. T.J. Watt came back and instantly made an impact.

Houston has never won a playoff game on the road, going 0-5. Pittsburgh has lost six straight playoff games, but the Steelers have won 23 consecutive home games on Monday night since 1991.
