NFL divisional round preview: 4 marquee matchups including No. 1 seeds Broncos and Seahawks joining in It will be hard for the NFL to top the drama we saw in wild-card weekend.
The Panthers in their Week 13 upset of the Rams were something beyond run heavy. Carolina had a 33 percent neutral pass rate against the Rams that day, with Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard splitting 35 rushing attempts and Bryce Young throwing just 20 passes (three of which went for touchdowns).
The NFL's playoff bracket will be finalized Sunday. Here's what it currently looks like and what the wild-card matchups will be.
Brock Purdy threw a go-ahead 6-yard touchdown pass to Christian McCaffery late in the fourth quarter, San Francisco used a trick play on a TD toss from wide receiver Jauan Jennings, and the 49ers eliminated the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles with a 23-19 wild-card victory Sunday.
