A Wild Card Weekend That Lived Up to It’s Name

  • The Lions won their first playoff game in over 30 years against their former franchise quarterback.
  • The NFL's Peacock-exclusive playoff game between the Chiefs and Dolphins was played in sub-zero temperatures.
Lon Horwedel-USA TODAY Sports

Sub-Zero temperatures in Kansas City’s “Peacock Bowl,” an utter collapse by the Dallas Cowboys, and the Lions first playoff win in over 30 years made for a wild weekend in the NFL. Newsletter co-authors Eric Fisher and David Rumsey break down the wild-card weekend that lived up to its name.

Afterward, soccer reporter Ben Jacobs joins Owen Poindexter to share all his thoughts on this season’s international transfer window — including Kylian Mbappe’s future and the implications of Premier League clubs’ financial fair play violations.
