Whats really weird is that the Packers/Cardinals, Bengals/Jets and Cowboys/Eagles all played each other in week 17 so they will be playing each other two weeks in a row. The Packers, Jets and Cowboys all won so could that be a sign of things to come. The playoffs are here and I cannot wait for them. I have a feeling there will be some surprises this year. Stay tuned for more.
