The game that opens the playoffs in Jacksonville

Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills bring the playoffs to Florida in a matchup that carries everything that makes the NFL playoffs special: high stakes, star quarterbacks, and a stadium built for a loud Sunday afternoon. The Jaguars enter as the home team after winning the AFC South and arrive with the feeling that they can dictate the rhythm on both sides of the ball, while the Bills come in as a visitor capable of flipping the game in a few drives thanks to Josh Allen’s creativity. The game is played at EverBank Field, at 1 EverBank Stadium Dr in Jacksonville, and kickoff is at 13:00 local time, which for viewers in Croatia is the evening of the same day. If you’re planning to be in the stands, ticket sales are the main topic of every conversation around the stadium right now, because for the playoffs you don’t buy at the last minute—you buy when an opportunity for a good seat opens up. Tickets for this matchup are disappearing fast, so buy your tickets on time and click the button labeled

when you see it below. In Jacksonville in January, weather conditions can be milder than in the north, but the morning chill and wind along the river can be felt, so it pays to dress in layers for the stands.

How the Jaguars earned home field

The Jaguars finished the 2025 season with a 13-4 record and secured home field in the first round, and down the stretch they looked like a team that grows week by week. Their offense, by team numbers, was among the more productive in the league, at about 27.9 points per game, while the defense allowed about 19.8 points, which is a recipe that usually works in the playoffs. The key to their rise was a steadier identity on offense, where they rely more and more on possession control, smartly timed deep shots, and making sure Trevor Lawrence doesn’t have to carry everything on his shoulders every snap. At the same time, the defense built wins through discipline and by forcing mistakes, so takeaways became part of the story of why Jacksonville once again has a sunny winter Sunday with a full stadium. When you add the sense of urgency from fans who have been waiting for a home playoff opportunity, it becomes clear why tickets for this event are drawing huge interest and why the atmosphere around EverBank Field changes days before the game.

The Bills’ path to an away trip and the team profile

The Buffalo Bills closed the regular season with a 12-5 record and come in as the 6 seed, which gives them the road role, but not the underdog role in terms of quality. Their statistical picture points to an offense that can score a lot of points in a short time, because they scored about 28.3 points per game and produced a large total of yards, along with very long time of possession. Josh Allen in 2025 had 3,668 passing yards with 25 passing touchdowns and 10 interceptions, and on top of that he added a major contribution with his running, which is why defenses can rarely reduce him to a classic pocket profile. The second pillar of the Bills’ identity was James Cook, who by season numbers finished as the league’s leading rusher with 1,621 rushing yards, so the defense can’t focus only on Allen’s improvisations. When that kind of offense comes into the playoffs against a team that likes to take the ball away, we get a clash of styles where one mistake can decide it, and that’s why Bills fans also travel in large numbers, which further increases the demand for seats in the stands.

Quarterback duel and risk control

The biggest headline is, of course, the duel of Trevor Lawrence and Josh Allen, but this isn’t only a story about quarterbacks—it’s about who will impose the terms of the game. Lawrence threw for 3,752 yards in 2025 with 26 touchdowns and 12 interceptions, and his season gained extra weight because Jacksonville was looking for consistency after earlier ups and downs. Allen, on the other hand, plays a kind of football where every snap is potentially chaos, because he can extend the play with his legs, change his throwing angle, and punish the defense when it thinks it has covered everything. In the playoffs you often see that the key is avoiding negative plays, and that means the Jaguars must protect Lawrence from long third downs, while the Bills must reduce the number of situations where Allen has to save a play under pressure. For a fan in the stands, it’s the perfect recipe: when both quarterbacks are in rhythm, every drive looks like it can end in a touchdown, which is one more reason tickets are sought after even among neutral NFL fans who want to see the spectacle live. If one of them falls into a series of penalties or lost yardage, momentum in the playoffs flips faster than in the regular season.

Jaguars offense: tempo, possession, and shots at the right time

The Jaguars offense this season relied on a mix of patience and explosiveness, so the idea is simple: create favorable situations in which you can play fast, but without forcing it. By team numbers they were among the better teams in time of possession, and in the playoffs that means you can shorten the game and keep your own defense fresh for key series. It helps Lawrence a lot when a first down comes through the run or a short pass that turns into a gain, because then play action and deep concepts make sense without needing to risk it in traffic. In such a plan, tight ends and slot targets who can break free into the middle of the field play a big role, and Jacksonville likes to attack zones when the defense is thinking too much about the run. If you’re thinking about buying tickets, games like this are special because you can feel when the offense catches a rhythm: the crowd rises with every drive, and the whole stadium turns into an instrument that pushes the defense to steal one more ball. That’s why you often see the Jaguars test the defense early with short concepts, and only then open the playbook for deeper shots toward the sideline or the seam.

Bills offense: a rushing title as leverage for Allen’s game

Buffalo on offense no longer lives only off Allen’s hero throws, because James Cook gave them stability that changes how defenses must set the box. Cook’s season with 1,621 rushing yards and an average over five yards per carry forces the opponent to drop a safety and play more one-on-one on the edges, and that’s the space where Allen most likes to punish the defense. When the Bills get a positive first down, their playbook philosophy expands: RPO concepts appear, quick slants, and also deep shots that look like they come out of nowhere. On top of that, Buffalo had a set of receiving options that can win one-on-one, so the Jaguars defense must choose whether to defend the run and risk an explosion through the air or play a lighter box and try to live with short gains. For fans in the stands that means a lot of action and little breathing room, and when that kind of offense shows up in the playoffs, ticket sales usually feel an extra wave of interest because people want to be part of a game where every snap can change the story.

Defense and the hidden details that matter in the playoffs

The defensive layer of this game is just as interesting as the offensive one, because the Jaguars have a profile that can be the difference in the playoffs: they allow few points and force opponents into mistakes. Their average allowed points of about 19.8 per game shows they know how to close the red zone and how to force the opponent into a field goal, and that’s crucial against the Bills, who like to finish drives with a touchdown. Jacksonville will pay special attention to keeping Allen from escaping the contain, because the biggest problems show up when the play lasts longer than planned and when coverage breaks down. Buffalo, on the other hand, must find a way to defend the middle of the field and not let the Jaguars keep the chains moving through short routes, because then the crowd goes into a trance and the defense gets extra energy. This is the part of the game where tickets and seats in the stands are felt on the field: the louder the stadium, the harder it is to communicate protections and audibles, and in the playoffs one bad communication can be decisive. Jacksonville benefits from a game where the score is kept under control, because then every forced fumble or interception has double value.

In the trenches: protections, pressure, and third down

When we talk about the trenches, pass rush is the currency of the playoffs, and both teams have reasons to believe they can swing the game through the pass rush. The Jaguars want to force Allen into quick decisions and throws over the middle where their defensive backs are waiting for an interception opportunity, but they can’t lose discipline in the gaps because Allen punishes a defense the moment a lane opens. Buffalo, on the other hand, will try to force Lawrence to play off schedule and throw on the move, because it’s easier to get a mistake when a quarterback has to reset his feet and when his first reads get closed. In games like this, details like third-and-short, and like who wins one-on-one on the edge, become bigger than the overall statistics from the regular season. That’s why fans also prepare as if every snap is its own mini game, and if you’re only now planning to buy tickets, it’s worth knowing this is the kind of matchup where you feel every sack, every holding call, and every moment of silence before the snap. It’s especially important how a team handles sack situations, because lost yardage forces a punt and gives the opponent a free possession at the psychologically worst moment.

Head-to-head matchups and playoff memories

The history of Bills vs. Jaguars meetings has a few chapters that fans like to bring up when they meet again in the playoffs, and the numbers say the overall record is even. According to available head-to-head summaries, the series is 10-10 overall, but the Bills are 0-2 in the playoffs against the Jaguars, so in Buffalo circles it’s always mentioned that Jacksonville in January can be a tricky opponent. The freshest playoff memory is the Wild Card from January 2018, when the Jaguars at home won 10-3 in a game where every point was a fight and the defenses dominated the offenses. Those memories are why this new meeting is seen as a chance for revenge and for a new story, especially because today everything is different: faster offenses, more points, and different types of stars on both sides. That’s exactly why tickets carry extra weight, because anyone who was in the stadium in 2018 knows what the playoffs sound like when it’s for everything, and anyone who wasn’t now has a chance to experience an atmosphere that can’t be transmitted through a screen. This time the stakes are even higher because the winner immediately gets an opportunity in the Divisional round, so every historical note turns into fuel for the stands.

EverBank Field as a stage: the viewing experience and fan rhythm

EverBank Stadium is one of the most recognizable open-air NFL venues, not only because of its location along the St. Johns River but also because of details that have become part of the stadium’s identity. The capacity for NFL games is about 67,814 seats, but the impression is bigger because the entire complex sits in a city stadium district, surrounded by traffic corridors and large areas for fans to gather. The stadium is known for huge video boards at the ends of the field, and on the north side it also has a recognizable pool zone, which is a detail often mentioned when people talk about the game-day experience in Jacksonville. For the playoffs, that experience gets amplified even more, because the crowd doesn’t hold back, and every defensive stop sounds like a touchdown, which is especially important against a visiting team that feeds off silence and routine.

City context: downtown, the river, and game day

Jacksonville is a city proud of its size and diversity, and sporting events downtown often become the reason the entire downtown turns into a big fan zone. EverBank Field is located in the heart of the sports complex along the river, so it’s easy to pair the game with a walk along the river promenades that connect public spaces on the banks of the St. Johns River. On game day you can feel how traffic and energy flow toward the stadium, from early morning to the moment the stands begin to fill, and local fan traditions become part of every playoff ritual. For visiting fans this is also a travel event, because Florida in January offers a different climate than the north, and that further increases demand for tickets and accommodation, so planning becomes part of the overall experience. If you’re coming from outside Jacksonville, tickets are the first item to handle wisely, because everything else—from transportation to entry—is easier to arrange when you know your seat is waiting for you in the stands and you’re ready for kickoff. A walk along the Riverwalk and views of bridges and boats provide a great contrast to the stadium noise, so many visitors turn that combination into a full-day plan.

Arrival, parking, and entry: what to know before you go

For arriving at EverBank Field, the most important thing is to leave earlier and account for traffic around the sports complex, because the playoffs draw more people and extend entry time. Official parking information highlights that stadium parking lots open four hours before the start and close two hours after the end of the game, so it pays to arrive early enough to avoid last-hour nerves. For those who don’t want to drive all the way to the stadium, the city and the transit provider offer options like JTA Gameday Xpress lines that run to events, and rideshare has defined pickup zones after the game, which makes it easier to get out of the crowd. Entry is increasingly tied to mobile tickets, so it’s smart to download your ticket to your device before you arrive and check that everything is available offline, because in a crowd you don’t want to rely on the last percent of battery.

What to bring to the stadium and how to avoid problems at security

Security rules at NFL stadiums are strict, and in Jacksonville it is emphasized that the best option is to arrive without bags, unless they comply with the size and type rules. According to the published policy, only very small clutches and clear bags up to maximum dimensions of 12 x 6 x 12 inches are allowed, and everything else is considered prohibited, with a note that items cannot be left at the gate. A limited amount of water can also be brought into the stadium, for example two factory-sealed 16.9 oz bottles per ticket, which is useful if you plan to arrive early and stay in the stands before kickoff. The stadium has a no re-entry rule, so once you enter, assume you stay inside until the end, which is especially important for those coming with children or planning a longer stay on the concourse. If you want everything to go smoothly and without surprises, secure your tickets in advance and click the

button when it appears, and then pack only what is allowed, because the playoffs don’t forgive being late—neither at the gate nor on the field. If you’re coming with a group, agree on a meeting spot before entering, because signal and crowds around the gates can change in a second.
