GAME. BLOUSES.
Well, the NFL finally provided fans with not one, but two entertaining playoff games on Sunday. It only took six appetizers to get to some semblance of a fully satisfying main course.
The first was the NFC divisional game between the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers, in which quarterback Aaron Rodgers received 35 seconds on the clock, managed not to fumble the ball when Cowboys safety Jeff Heath hit him on a blindside sack, and then converted a 3rd and 20 with three seconds remaining to set up kicker Mason Crosby’s game winner as time expired.

In Kansas City, Missouri, the Pittsburgh Steelers needed a playoff-record six field goals to escape Arrowhead Stadium with a victory and advance to the AFC Championship game, in which they’ll face the New England Patriots. Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce let reporters know after the game that he was disgusted with the officiating, especially the holding call that took two points off the board for Kansas City in the final minutes of the game.
