Jeffrey SparksPublished about a year ago in UnbalancedDivisional Playoff Recap: 99 Problems, and McCarthy is #1
I do love Divisional Playoff Weekend, and I have my reasons. For one, it's the last chance we have to enjoy Saturday NFL action, and secondly, it serves as a hotbed for surprising upsets. The Divisional Playoff once served as the opening playoff round when the leagues merged in 1970, but it has been the second round since 1978, when a second Wild Card was added and resulted in the debut of the Wild Card Playoff. It's the last stop before the Final Four, aka the Conference Championship, and regarding this year, it was quite tame following Super Wild Card Weekend.

Summery American football is a popular sport in the United States that is played between two teams of eleven players each on a rectangular field. The objective of the game is to advance an oval-shaped ball down the field by either running or passing it, and ultimately scoring points by crossing into the opposing team's end zone. The team with the most points at the end of the game is declared the winner. American football has a rich history and culture, and is deeply ingrained in the American identity, with the Super Bowl being one of the most-watched television events in the country and considered a national holiday. It has evolved over the years, with many new rules and regulations being introduced to improve player safety and make the game more exciting for fans. American football also has a strong tailgating culture and halftime performances as an important aspect of American Football culture. There have been many great players throughout the history of American Football, one of the greatest is Jerry Rice who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010.

Ever since Graham Potter took over Chelsea he opted for Kepa Arrizabalaga in goal instead of long-time number one Edouard Mendy. His decision was interrupted before the world cup when the Spaniard got injured. That gave Edouard Mendy a chance to regain his status. With a new contract as well. Despite rightly standing behind his self-pride, he made a real mess of everything and handled the whole situation poorly.

This year's Super Wild Card Weekend marked the observed 30-year anniversary of "The Comeback." We all know about that by now; the infamous Wild Card Playoff contest between the Buffalo Bills and the Houston Oilers, which saw the Oilers up 35-3 during the midpoint of the 3rd quarter. However, in a span of a quarter and a half, the Bills' 32-point deficit disappeared, as after sixty minutes of game time, both teams had 38 points. The Bills won it with a field goal, completing what was the largest comeback in NFL history until the Minnesota Vikings came back from a 33-0 deficit on December 15, 2022. It still remains the largest playoff comeback in league history, but comebacks like that are rare.

1. The Bills' defense is a force to be reckoned with The Bills' defense is indeed a force to be reckoned with. They were able to effectively neutralize the Dolphins' offense, limiting their scoring opportunities and forcing them into multiple mistakes.

Sajeeth AhamedPublished about a year ago in Unbalanced3 Teams I Want to Win Super Bowl LVII, and 3 Teams I Don't Want to Win
I absolutely love the NFL playoffs, always have. I remember back when ABC had Monday Night Football, they also had the Wild Card Saturday coverage, and back then, those games were on early in West Coast--at the same time as the Saturday morning cartoons. I loved my Saturday morning cartoons back then, but I also enjoyed that one day a year that I would wake up to playoff football back then. Of course, the playoff format and broadcasting schedule has changed since then. This is the second year of this current format, which will begin with six Wild Card Playoff games, followed by the Divisional Playoff (which will introduce the bye week teams to the fray). The Conference Championship is the last stop, and then it's the Super Bowl, and this year, Super Bowl LVII is in Arizona and will air on Fox.
