All of the above was expected except for the Washington and Los Angeles games. Los Angeles was visibly inspired because of the fire situation there. They weren't going home a loser! :bow:

TIP: The Ravens/Bills game may be better than the Superbowl. If you are only going to watch one, this is the one. :cheers:

Well, the first half of the weekend games are over and the #6 seed, Washington, knocks off the #1 seed, Detroit. Detroit played terribly today unfortunately.

The other game was won by Kansas City as expected.

Goff turned into the Goff of old like he was with LA. He lost his confidence, started throwing interceptions, lost more confidence, then the whole team started making mistakes. By far the worst played game Detroit has had this season.

Some teams simply can't handle the pressure of playoff football and crash, or at least don't play up to their ability and regular season record. This was all new for Detroit as it's been a very long time since they were at this level.

They'll regroup and undoubtedly do well next season. I expect to see them in the playoffs again next season.

I agree Pete, too far, too fast. Hopefully next year.

Part #2 of the weekend below.

The Eagles barely beat the Rams with the Rams on the verge of scoring as time ran out. Game played in a blizzard.

The Bills edges the Ravens in a game played on a frozen field at -8 C and in light snow. The Bills simply handled the weather better.
