3 of the 4 road teams won, including a dramatic double-doink missed FG by the Bears in the final seconds.
The Colts were so dominant that first half, though being shut out the 2nd half is a concern. The Chargers avenged their loss to the Ravens, and the Cowboys managed to win a playoff game.
The division rounds will be interesting. The Colts are going to be a huge challenge for the Chiefs, who are on a terrible home playoff losing streak. That game could have a combined score in the 70s to 90s.
The Chargers are just as good as the Patriots or better, though the Pats are undefeated at home.
The Eagles will have a big challenge in New Orleans, but Nick Foles just keeps winning as the underdog over and over again.
Finally, the Cowboys and Rams will be a media sensation. The Rams are still really hard to beat.

My money is on all the home teams this next round.

Re: Wild Wild Card weekend
You would have done well. The one game that surprised me the most was the Colts-Chiefs game. I hadn't seen the Colts that out of sorts in quite a while. The offense, defense, and even certain HOFer Vinatieri just did not execute, while the Chiefs made it look easy.geeznotagain wrote:My money is on all the home teams this next round.
The Eagles had a chance at the end thanks to the missed field goal by the Saints, but a ball slipping through Jeffery's fingers into a Saints' defender's hands ended all hope.
