nflThis was the NFL’s version of the Elite Eight, but practically, four of the teams did not look very rich. Once  again, the first three matches of the weekend were changing degrees of blowouts as the favored home teams pretty much had their way in those games. Heading into the home stretch, the Saints, Colts, and Vikings all had tickets in hand for next week.

The New York Jets put together another fine defensive effort, and paired with a solid running game, the Chargers and Norv Turner came up short.

The end result of all this is that each of the eight teams contributed to their own fate.  There was some good, some bad, and some ugly. The playoffs are a time when relatively evenly-matched teams square off against one another and it is entirely possible for a team to play well and lose or play less than well and win. However, that was not the case this week.
