Let the Playoff Games Begin!

The first playoff line-up is set in stone, and the suspense over who's going to make it is has subsided! (phew!) The following four games will take place this weekend:

1. Jets vs. Bengals
2. Ravens vs. Patriots
3. Eagles vs. Cowboys
4. Packers vs. Cardinals

Only four teams will continue their playoff journey and fight for the ultimate destination: the Superbowl! They (whoever they are) will have a rocky road ahead of them, as they are the wild card picks, and the playoff shoe-ins lie ahead (hungry to put them in their place). However, this achievement is not impossible, and wild card picks have landed the title in the past. (Once again, the Giant's 2008 Superbowl victory comes to mind.)

If you feel like you're experiencing déjà-vu this weekend, it's because three of these games (minus Ravens/Patriots) occurred last Sunday. The Cowboys, Jets, and Packers all badly beat their opposing teams, however, don't get ideas about the impending games; the past games could have been flukes since many teams are resting their good players for the playoffs. Let the playoff games begin!
