The Minnesota Vikings were able to claim a Wild-Card spot after defeating the Chicago Bears at home 28-27 in a game offensively dominated by Chicago. The L.A. Rams are also Wild-Card bound after knocking off division winner San Francisco on the road 38-16. In the AFC, both Wild Card teams are from the AFC Central, as the Browns defeated the Oilers 28-23 putting Cleveland as the 4 seed and dropping Houston down to the 5 seed. That means the Wild-Card game will be played in Cleveland instead of Houston. The other Wild-Card matchup will be the Rams going to Minnesota to take on the Vikings. The AFC Division winners are the Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, and Seattle Seahawks. The NFC division winners are the Philadelphia Eagles, Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers. Len and Nick analyze the playoff teams, make wild-card predictions, and determine which lower seeded team or teams can make a big run in the postseason, and possibly the Super Bowl. Expand
