Wild Card Round - 2016

[PhillyPhreak54]

Winner of the Lions and Packers tonight will host the Giants
Loser will go on the road to Seattle

Oakland and Houston may be the worst playoff game ever.
Miami and Pittsburgh also may be a bad one

[ice grillin you]

at least miami pittsburgh are two national franchises

but yeah oakland houston is must not see tv

also i didnt realize even with the wash loss tonights game is for a home playoff game....not as good as win and in but still very meaningful

[PhillyPhreak54]

Also would be Detroits first division title and home playoff game since 1993 I believe

[MDS]

detroit has won 1 playoff games since 1957.....its insane

[PhillyPhreak54]

I remember Lomas Brown guaranteeing a win in 1995

58-37! Peete to Carpenter!

So I Googled the box score for this game because I was brain farting on who Detroit's stud WR was at the time (Herman Moore, duh).  Anyway, I saw this link which stood out to me in the search results

That's fan since 64.  What the hell happened to him?

[MDS]

nope

first off the late kickoff is 435 or 445 or something...not 415. second the time stamp is 3 hours ago.

[PhillyPhreak54]

This shapes up nicely for Dallas to get knocked out by Green Bay

Detroit isn't beating Seattle in Seattle

So the Seahawks go to The Dan Quinn Bowl after beating Detroit

Green Bay knocks off the Giants and then blows Dallas out

[BigEd76]

OAK/HOU on ESPN Saturday, MIA/PIT on CBS Sunday

Divisional Round = Atlanta and New England on Saturday; Kansas City and Dallas on Sunday

[MDS]

im thinking they did what they did as a kneejerk reaction to the bad ratings. they were down and they want to see headlines saying they are up for the playoffs. they have the schedule to do that but farged cbs in the process, which i didnt foresee

[ice grillin you]

houston oakland early sat was the lock of the century

[PhillyPhreak54]

No doubt

It could be a 9-6 game

[MDS]

houston oakland early sat was the lock of the century

it wasnt until the nfl broke protocol and gave fox both 440 sunday games which to my knowledge has never happened. those are the biggest games for those networks...a 30/40 mil audience leading into primetime. its why they pay 1 billion per year.

[General_Failure]

FOX pays tons and tons of money to the NFL hoping to get people to stick around and watch Son of Zorn. What a world.
