Turns out that Wildcard Weekend saved the best for last. Well, next to last.
Despite several lopsided games, three underdogs have progressed to the next stage, with the Houston Texans overcoming the Los Angeles Chargers and newcomer sensation Jayden Daniels leading the Commanders to a notable win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the standout game of the weekend. While these two victories were considered upsets – with both the Chargers and Buccaneers being favored by approximately three points – the most unexpected result of the weekend was the Los Angeles Rams dominating the Minnesota Vikings with a 27-9 win on Monday Night Football.
With Wildcard Weekend now behind us, our focus shifts towards the Divisional Round with eight teams remaining in the quest for Super Bowl LIX. But what about Thursday Night Football? Is TNF happening tonight? Here is all the information you need to stay updated.
