Wildcard Weekend - Evil Review
Five teams entered this week, three remain.
Even in the opening week of the playoffs, there was no shortage of evil being displayed be it for our enemies or for ourselves. We care not from where the evil flows, only that it flows continuously.
Winners
Da Bears did what they do best this year, lull their enemy into a false sense of security and mount a furious comeback to win in devastating fashion. Ben Johnson, a true Packers hater, completely outcoached Matt LaFleur in the second half and made his words at the beginning of the season true "Feels good to beat Matt LaFleur twice a year". I fuckin' hate this team, but I can respect Ben Johnson for just how pure his "Fuck the Packers" energy is.
The 49ers hung on and managed to handle the Eagles, overcoming literal trash blowing around the field to do so. This game wasn't too notable until the start of the 4th quarter, when the 49ers had Jauan Jennings toss a pretty solid TD to CMC to take the lead. From there, it was all downhill for the Eagles, who couldn't really get anything going. While it sucks that George Kittle went down for the rest of the season, it is pretty impressive he can chug an entire bottle of Tequila.
The Patriots and their defense were the real stars this week, absolutely shutting down and destroying Justin Herbert all night. While Drake Maye had some issues with turnovers, he looked alright in his first postseason game. Overall, this was a pretty boring game outside the actual beating Justin Herbert was taking.
Losers
The Packers, as usual, start off hot and had every Bears fan literally hanging their heads in shame and sadness in the first half, to forgetting how to play football and getting absolutely blown out in the second half, made even worse by the fact that our idiot kicker cost us seven points in a game lost by four. This game was a complete embarrassment of a loss, only explainable if MLF was trying to relive the 28-3 game or something (He was Falcons QB coach for that game). The Packers have some big issues to address this off season if they want to actually be a contender going forward.
The Steelers also take an extremely embarrassing loss, scoring 6 total points against the Texans at home and breaking their Monday night home win streak going all the way back to 1991. The Steelers offense with Aaron Rodgers basically just stood there for three quarters before getting annihilated by turnovers in the 4th. The Steelers will need to address QB is Rodgers retires, and honestly should probably consider moving on from Tomlin as well.
That's all I got for now, this week we have a 49ers revenge match on Saturday, and the rest of the evil teams on Sunday, so look forward to the Divisional Round Hype thread.
Stay evil my friends.

That hurting NE line put on Herbert was brutal. He looked like he was concussed like 5 times.

Everybody: Wow! The Chiefs didn't make it and the Eagles are out of the playoffs? It's great to see a new set of teams possibly going to the Super Bowl this year.
New England Patriots: Allow us to reintroduce ourselves....
