This was a big issue I had with how Wild Card weekend was scheduled. Now Green Bay gets shafted getting only 6 days rest to play on Saturday while every other team on W.C. weekend gets 7 or in Pittsburgh's case 8 days rest. Same thing would have happened even if Washington had won, scheduling was done really unfairly I believe. I think it's always worked out this way, where at least one WC Week team got only 6 days until the next game. But yeah, I think it could've been prevented. Both AFC games last week were on a Saturday, I don't see how they couldn't work it out to do the same this week.

Personally, I'd have gone GB/ARZ and PIT/DEN Saturday, KC/NE and SEA/CAR Sunday.

No Greg Gumbel for the Pats game? Dang, I actually like him, so I am disappoint.

Man, that Broncos/Steelers game, Peyton-Hurt, Ben-Hurt, AB-Hurt, DeAngelo Williams-Hurt, Brock-Hurt, Von-Sick and that is just what I can remember. One ugly game coming up.

Don't forget about the potential blood feud status of this game based on Cody Wallace's SUPER dirty hit on David Bruton Jr.

Antonio Brown is indeed OUT for Sunday's game. So, is PacMan going to apologize for accusing him of faking it?

Antonio Brown is indeed OUT for Sunday's game. So, is PacMan going to apologize for accusing him of faking it? Surprisingly I just saw on TV that he did. Also happy to see Derek Wolfe get a 4 year extension. Anchor for the run D up front. One item on the shopping list ticked off.

Antonio Brown is out. DeAngelo Williams is out. Ben Roethlisberger is questionable with a serious shoulder injury. If the Broncos lose on Sunday, it might be the most embarrassing of all of Peyton Manning's illustrious one-and-done playoff chokes. Given Pittsburgh's injuries, Denver should win going away.

Brown is out?
Of course. In the year of the injury, why not one more guy we want to see in the playoffs not be able to go in the ultra-coveted late Sunday divisional timeslot?

Denver is not exactly in tip top shape either and it is on the defense as well. Yeah, the missing for Pitt. is a help but it is far from a slam dunk. Hell, Peyton takes a good hit and we'll be down to our 3rd string QB.

IF IF IF Pittsburgh beats Denver, would Brown/DeAngelo be able to play in a hypothetical AFC-CG or does it depend on the injury severity?
