Comments:

  • Not a lot of movement, in spite of the fact that only one game ended within one score.

  • The Texans continue APR's tradition of the lowest ranked playoff team winning their first game. Of course, the related tradition is an unceremonious exit in the divisional round.

  • Another good year for the home teams in the Wild Card round. In the 6 seasons From 2004 to 2010, there was only one year (2006) when more than two home teams won in the Wild Card round. Prior to that, at least 3 home teams won in the 11 season from 1993 to 2003.

  • The Ravens are the only winning team that didn't trail in their game this week. The Seahawks are the only team to trail by more than 3.
