Everything Green Bay do to get ahead, the Rams have an answer. This could be a very tight game with the next score proving pivotal. 19-10 at the half to the Pack. But Goff looking good.

Quite a good game from the Browns. Very similar to the Bills winning their first then losing in this round last year, and the Chiefs losing against the Pats two years ago before winning it all last year. The Bills-Chiefs-Browns has the makings of the Saints-Niners-Seahawks of the past 10 years or the Giants-Niners-WFTs / Broncos-Fins-Raiders of the 80s.
The Saints are already covering the receivers and the O-line can't handle the Saints D again. They got 6 sacks on Brady last game (he had 21 the whole season,) and are already up to 1 and they can't tackle Harris on punt returns.

.000000000000000000000000000000000005% chance of winning now.
Old school NFC Central Battle of the Bays.
Irony of ironies...the Super Bowl is in Tampa Bay this year.
How bizarre if the first team to play in their own stadium would be during a quarantine.
As good as Green Bay is, this Tampa Bay only got better as the year went on and keeps getting better.

Maybe old news to many but away from the Bills result, the highlight of my weekend was deciding to Wikipedia Equanimeous St Brown during the Packers game because it’s such a tremendous name.
Even more delighted to see his middle name is Imhotep and has brothers called Osiris and Amon-Ra. Almost felt like apologising to my kids for not even considering them when it came to naming them.

In the nineties it seemed like the Seahawks, Chiefs and Broncos (not sure about San Diego) all considered the Raiders to be their number one rival. Is there a team in a similar position today? New England because of their success?
The AFC West, which has the same membership as the old AFL West, and the NFC East, which also has four teams that have been in the same division for 60 years, are the divisions of feuds. The AFC East has the same membership as the old AFL East, but the team with the target on their back before New England would have been Miami.

Picking myself up:
One thing i like about the NFL being a cartel is that teams from smaller cities can do well*. This season is a particularly good example: New Orleans, Green Bay and Tampa** are the smallest tv markets in the NFC, Seattle (which lost at home last week) is the smallest market in its division, and all four remaining AFC teams are from small and/or unfashionable cities.
Comparing with the UK is very imprecise, given the demographic differences, but to give a rough idea, the equivalent metropolitan areas for the four remaining teams might be Leicester, Ipswich, Gloucester and Torbay (or Northampton, if using Milwaukee). In the quarter-finals they would have eliminated representatives from Birmingham, Swansea, Southend and Doncaster.
