NFL Playoff weekend continues today, in full force, with thesecond of the divisional rounds. Yesterday brought no real surprises, with wins by the San Francisco49ers and by the Tennessee Titans. Today, the Houston Texans travel to the Kansas City Chiefs inthe AFC matchup. If you watched theTexans survive their matchup with the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round, yousaw how important it is to get pressure on Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson —as long as you finish the play. Watsonwas sacked seven times. But the one time the Bills didn’t finish the tackle, hemiraculously escaped — throwing a pass to set up the game-winning field goal inovertime. He will be a definite factorin today's game. The 12-4 Chiefs havegathered a ton of momentum on both sides of the ball heading into Sunday’sDivisional round game against the 11-6 Houston Texans. They have earned theconfidence of their fans — as well as local (and even national) media. Both quarterbacks are exciting andyoung. Watson's Houston Texans andPatrick Mahomes' Kansas City Chiefs produced a high-scoring affair in Week 6,and the same may occur at Arrowhead Stadium. With plenty of offensive weaponson each roster, we could witness the most points in a single game this postseason. In the NFC matchup, the Green Bay Packers welcome the SeattleSeahawks into the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field. The Packers franchise is famously owned bytheir fans, and in view of the forecast snow, those owners were called upon toforgo Sunday services, and show up at the stadium this morning to shovel itout... No game time privileges areaccorded, however, shovelers will have to vacate the stadium prior to the fieldbeing reopened to admit ticketed owners, er fans. The fourth playoff meeting between the GreenBay Packers and Seattle Seahawks will determine the final participant in theNFL's conference championship weekend. Intheir most recent postseason showdown, Russell Wilson led the Seahawks pastAaron Rodgers and the Packers in overtime in the divisional round of the 2014season. On Sunday at Lambeau Field, Rodgers has more offensive weapons at hisdisposal, while Wilson may be forced to do more work on his own. Rodgers is 3-2 at home in the postseason,with all of the victories coming by more than four points. The Packers are 7-1 at home this season, andare pleased to welcome the Seahawks into the snowy confines for today'sgame.
