The Jaguars made the playoffs in 2007 and beat Pittsburgh in the Wild Card. They lost in the Divisional round by a respectable 31-20 margin against the 16-0 Patriots team.

Yes, it's the Browns at 15 years. After that is Tampa Bay at 10 years, then Jets and Bears at 7. The NFL has pretty good parity with only 4 teams in the league having a playoff drought of 4 years or more.

Opening Wild Card betting lines:

LA Rams (-5) vs. Atlanta
New Orleans (-5.5) vs. Carolina
Jacksonville (-8.5) vs. Buffalo
Kansas City (-7) vs. Tennessee

Wouldn't be surprised to see all 4 home teams advance.

Is this real? The drought is over?

Trust the process. Become addicted to the process.

I heard a rumor the Bills made the playoffs? Is that right?

Who's the #1 seed in the NFC? Is it the Eagles? That would be highlarious since it's pretty likely they go home after 1 game.

If Falcons D plays like today, I like our chances.

[Batman1980]

New Orleans vs Carolina should be a slugfest as only two division rivals can do it. Still can't believe the NFC South sent everyone to the play-offs except the Buccaneers.

They will be one and done for sure. Vikings look like a team of destiny. Might be first team to play in own stadium in the Superbowl.

We could've had Mike Zimmer instead of Jason Garrett.

Give it up for the Cleveland Brons!!!

We all know they don't deserve the W

Gruden looks like he is the new raiders coach. Rooney rule stopping it from being official.

I hope it’s not 1 and done but the way they’re playing doesn’t look good for us

Could be worse. Your first opponent could be the Vikings.
