Seattle Seahawks Road Favorite Against Eagles In Philadelphia
The Seattle Seahawks have a reputation for having a tough home field advantage.

This season in particular, they’ve been at their […]
Vikings Draw Tough Task Of Starting Playoffs On Road Against Saints
The Minnesota Vikings are the biggest underdog of the wild card weekend and with good reason. They looked very unimpressive down the stretch, limping to the finish line with home losses against Green Bay and Chicago. Overall, they lost 3 of their last 5 games straight up and have failed to cover in 4 of […]
Patriots In Unfamiliar Role Playing In Wild Card Round
Quick–when was the last time the New England Patriots *didn’t* have a bye in the first round of the NFL playoffs? That would be 2009. That year, the Patriots didn’t fare well as the Baltimore Ravens beat them 33-14 at Gillette Stadium. With the current incarnation of the Ravens looking like a Super Bowl caliber […]
Bills and Texans Hope To Find Some Playoff Success
Sports analysts and handicappers often speak of playoff and/or ‘big game’ experience as a salient factor in evaluating post season success.

Jacksonville Hosts Indy In Doug Marrone’s Last Game As Jags’ Coach
Well *this* is awkward. It sounds like the Jacksonville Jaguars have an operational security issue.

Now the report is out that head coach Doug Marrone […]
Bears and Vikings Play Regular Season Finale Against Divisional Rivals
The Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears are playing the finale of what is a somewhat unsatisfying season on both sides of the field.

Giants Host Eagles In Matchup Of NFC East Rivals
The NFC East has traditionally been one of the most competitive divisions in the NFL. That isn’t the case this season where it doesn’t seem like anyone wants to win the divisional title. The Philadelphia Eagles are currently in first place though with a very mediocre 8-7 record. For now, they’re a game up on […]
Falcons Look To Continue Second Half Surge In Road Game Against Bucs
The Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers have played their best when it mattered the least.
