Chiefs vs. Jaguars free live streams: How to watch 2023 NFL playoff game without cable image

The Jaguars might still be riding the energy from their historic comeback win over the Chargers in the wild-card round, but they can't afford to start the same way in Kansas City. 

What worked against a Chargers team prone to late-game collapses likely won't against Patrick Mahomes, who has never lost in the divisional round. 

The Chiefs are looking to launch their third run to the Super Bowl in four seasons, one year after their championship hopes came to a crashing halt against Joe Burrow and the Bengals. Trevor Lawrence has made a Burrow-like leap in year two and is hoping to capture some of the same magic here in these playoffs.

Do the Jaguars have what it takes to pull off an upset? It's critical that Lawrence plays better early on than he did against the Chargers, but equally as important is the defense's performance against the likely MVP. 

Mahomes has beaten the Colts, Texans, Browns, and Bills in the divisional round since he became the starter in Kansas City. Are the Jaguars next?
