Get ready for a super wild football weekend!!! There will be plenty of NFL action with three games on Saturday, and three on Sunday. Keeping track of every matchup is going to be key towards a fruitful betting experience, so don’t miss a bit! Check out our top picks for this upcoming NFL Super Wild Card Weekend!
Saturday, January 9th
AFC No. 7 seed Indianapolis Colts at AFC No. 2 seed Buffalo Bills, 1:05 p.m. ET (CBS)
The Bills won the second place in the AFC East and will host a playoff game for the first time since 1996!!! This is definitely exciting for Bills fans. Plus, they’ve got MVP candidate Josh Allen. They will face the Colts, who was close to become the third 11-5 team in NFL history to miss the playoffs.
NFC No. 6 seed Los Angeles Rams at NFC No. 3 seed Seattle Seahawks, 4:40 p.m. ET (FOX)
This is likely going to be a defensive battle, and the Rams have the best defense. They clinched a playoff spot with a win over the Arizona Cardinals, but there’s a lot of mystery around quarterback Jared Goff. Will his thumb be ready for the matchup? It seems like a long shot. In the meantime all eyes will be on Goff over the course of the week, as his participation in the Rams practice will have a strong indication one way or another. The Seahawks have now a much improved defense, they won the rematch 20-9 with the Rams this season already, and they had a shot for the NFC’s No. 1 seed going into Week 17, so they’re in good standing.
NFC No. 5 seed Tampa Bay Buccaneers at NFC No. 4 seed Washington Football Team, 8:15 p.m. ET (NBC)
Tom Brady has touchdown-ed the Bucs into the wild card. Brady threw 40 touchdowns this season and this will be their first playoff appearance in over a decade. The opinions regarding Washington are controversial though. They certainly won against the odds, and despite the challenges they’ve had this season they still made it! Their victory against the Eagles might have not been the best, but who cares?
Sunday, January 10th
AFC No. 5 seed Baltimore Ravens at AFC No. 4 seed Tennessee Titans, 1:05 p.m. ET (ABC, ESPN)
Rouse the rivalry! This matchup is not just any playoff game, it is also a rematch between the Titans and the Ravens -who were knocked out of the playoffs last season by no other than the Titans-. Tennessee took the AFC South division title on a Week 17 after a win over the Houston Texans. The Ravens finished the season on a roll, winning their final five games to make the playoffs, and they are led by 2019 MVP Lamar Jackson, who is putting up MVP numbers again! Revenge, Lamar, amazing offense ranks… This matchup is going to be pure gold!
NFC No. 7 seed Chicago Bears at NFC No. 2 seed New Orleans Saints, 4:40 p.m. ET (CBS, Nick, Amazon Prime Video)
The Bears are the third team in NFL history to make the playoffs after a five-game losing streak, the last one against the Packers in Week 17. A loss by the Cardinals pushed the Bears in through the back door. The Saints won in Week 17 and wrapped up the No. 2 seed in the conference by blowing out the Panthers.
AFC No. 6 seed Cleveland Browns at AFC No. 3 seed Pittsburgh Steelers, 8:15 p.m. ET (NBC, Telemundo, Peacock)
The Browns are starring another playoff comeback story this year. Cleveland will be back in the playoffs for the first time in 18 years, and against the team they faced in their only other playoff appearance since coming back to the NFL in 1999. In Week 17 the Browns beat the Steelers, setting up another great rematch on wild card weekend. These two teams are ready to reprise the rivalry in the wildcard round of the playoffs and no one will want to miss it!
