NFL Wildcard Weekend Recap
This week was the craziest of weeks in the Wildcard weekend for the NFL. The first game was between Seattle and New Orleans and my goodness did that go completely different then what everyone thought. Seattle ended up shocking the world by beating the Saints in a very high scoring game. I am sure the Saints had a long plane ride home.
On the other hand the Indianapolis Colts did not have a long plane ride home after their loss to the Jets. This was a very tight game and both teams didn’t play their greatest football. However Ladanian Tomlinson played his heart out and that’s what got the Jets over the edge.
On Sunday the day started with the Ravens dominating the Chiefs in their typical fashion. The Chiefs kept it close in the first half but in the second half the Ravens ran away with it. The second game on Sunday featured the Packers and Eagles. The Packers defense really did a nice job of keeping the Eagles at bay long enough for Aaron Rodgers to get out a 14-0 lead. The Eagles tried making a comeback but the Packers were too much for Vick and company.
Only one home team won this weekend and that was Seattle which I am sure people will be talking about for a long time to come. It was proven this week that home-field doesn’t mean a whole lot sometimes. Any team can win on any given day. It all matters on who wants it most. Stay tuned for this weeks playoff games. They should be good.
