Washington Wizards *NFL PLAYOFF SPECIAL* See you tomorrow, http://www.shannon71.com Wild Card Weekend info........ Tampa Bay (9-7) at Philadelphia (11-5) 4:30 PM EST. The Eagles are in the playoffs for the second straight year. After defeating the Buccaneers by a 21-3 score in the opening-round last season, Andy Reid's squad was eliminated by the eventual NFC champion New York Giants, 20-10. PLAYOFF HISTORY: The Eagles are 10-12 all-time in the playoffs, including 7-3 at home. They have won their last two postseason contests at Veterans Stadium, where they are 5-3 all-time in the playoffs. Under - 14-4 last 18 TB road when total is 32 - 35. N.Y. Jets (10-6) at Oakland (10-6) 8:00 PM EST. The New York Jets return to the Bay Area for the second consecutive week to face the Oakland Raiders on Saturday night in a Wild Card weekend matchup. Under first-year head coach Herman Edwards, the Jets defeated the Raiders last week, 24-22, on John Hall?s 53-yard field goal to qualify for the playoffs as the sixth-seeded team in the AFC. PLAYOFF HISTORY: The Jets and Raiders have met in the postseason twice, with New York winning both games. The Jets beat the Raiders, 27-23, in the AFL Championship Game on December 29, 2025 in New York. The clubs also met in the second round of the AFC playoffs in the 1982 season. The Jets won that contest 17-14 on January 15, 2026 at the Los Angeles Coliseum. Jets are 6-2 ATS on the road this season. Sunday, January 13 San Francisco (12-4) at Green Bay (12-4)12:30 PM EST The 49ers enter Wild Card weekend off a dominating 38-0 win over the New Orleans Saints, no doubt building confidence for this week's showdown. Pro Bowl QB Jeff Garcia threw for 263 yards and the defense held New Orleans' potentially-explosive offense to a mere 126 yards. However, the climate-controlled atmosphere of the Superdome couldn't be more different than the "Frozen Tundra of Lambeau Field." In spite of the inhospitable conditions that are sure to face the Niners, coach Steve Mariucci has not changed his approach. PLAYOFF HISTORY: These teams have met four times in the playoffs between 1995-98, and the Packers have won three of those four. The over is 11-5 in Niners' last 16 January games.
The defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens aren?t playing nearly as well as they were a year ago heading into the playoffs. Injuries to the defensive line have had a trickle-down effect on Marvin Lewis? defense. Now there are rumors about Lewis? pending departure for a head- coaching job and possibly Brian Billick taking another job, too. Still and all, the Ravens, who won two of their final three games of the regular season, are the champs until an opponent knocks them off. PLAYOFF HISTORY: These teams are meeting for the first time in the postseason. Ravens are 4-1 ATS in their last five January games. IP: Logged |
