NFL Playoffs


Last week in the National Football League was the start of another post-season in professional football. This week being the first week of the playoffs was of course the week of the wild card. For starters, San Diego defeated Indianapolis 23-17 in a close upset game in which Darren Sproles exploded out of the back field with 105 yards rushing in 23 carries and two touchdowns as well as receiving with 5 catches for 45 yards. Without L.T. no one thought the Chargers could go anywhere but with Sproles as your back up there is always hope. Another surprising game for me was the Arizona and Atlanta looking like the clear winners in that game at least on paper but when it came right down to it the Cards wanted it more. Next week I'm looking for both games on the AFC side of the chart to be good games as amazing defenses clash in a head on head collision. Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and Tennessee all defensive power houses all very good teams and all good games for sure. So I'm going to end with this anything is possible so try your best. I don't know why i said but i guess it'll do for this week.
