SCOREBOARD
Sunday http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-kemo...ray-jer sey , Jan. 7
Buffalo at Jacksonville, 1:05 p.m. EST. The Bills (9-7) are making their first playoff appearance since 1999, ending a 17-year absence that was the longest for any team in the four major North American sports leagues. The Jaguars (10-6) are in the postseason for the first time since the 2007 season, and won their first division title since 1999. Theyâre coached by Doug Marrone, who was Buffaloâs head coach from 2013-14.
â
Carolina at New Orleans, 4:40 p.m. EST. Two familiar foes cap wild-card weekend as Cam Newtonâs Panthers (11-5) take on Drew Breesâ Saints (11-5) for the third time this season. New Orleans won the previous two meetings, with the victories bookending an 8-1 stretch for the Saints en route to the NFC South title. The Panthers will have tight end Greg Olsen, who missed the earlier matchups because of a foot injury.

STREAKS & STATS
With a 22-21 loss to Tennessee http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-tyqu...wis-jer sey , the Kansas City Chiefs havenât won a home playoff game since January 1994. ⦠Atlantaâs 26-13 win over the Los Angeles Rams gave the Falcons playoff victories in consecutive seasons for the first time in franchise history. ⦠Atlanta won a road playoff game for the first time in 5,481 days. The Falconsâ last postseason road victory came in the 2002 playoffs, when Michael Vickâs Falcons defeated Brett Favreâs Green Bay Packers. ⦠Tennessee won a playoff game for the first time in 5,117 days, beating Kansas City 22-21. The Titansâ last playoff win came on Jan. 3, 2004, when Tennessee topped Baltimore.
â
MILESTONES
Los Angelesâ Cooper Kupp became the first Rams rookie to catch a touchdown pass in the playoffs since Torry Holt in the 2000 Super Bowl. ⦠Derrick Henry became the third player in Titans history to have 100 or more yards rushing in a playoff game, joining Eddie George (twice) and Earl Campbell. ⦠Alex Smithâs two TD passes against Tennessee put him past Len Dawson (seven) for the most in Chiefs playoff history with nine.
â
COMEBACK KIDS
Tennessee became the third road team to rally from at least 18 points down to win a playoff game in NFL history. The Titans trailed Kansas City 21-3 at halftime before storming back in the second half to win 22-21. Dallas came back from 21-3 in the first half to beat San Francisco 30-28 in December 1972, and Detroit came back from 27-7 in the second half to beat San Francisco in December 1957.
â
FROM ME TO ⦠ME
Marcus Mariota capped a 91-yard TD drive to start the second half of Tennesseeâs 22-21 win at Kansas City in bizarre fashion: He threw a TD pass to himself. His throw to the end zone was batted right back at him by Darrelle Revis, and Mariota hauled it in and dived for the goal line. It was the first time a player has thrown a TD pass to himself in the playoffs, and the first time in any game since the Vikingsâ Brad Johnson during the 1997 season.
â
PARTY POOPERS
Atlantaâs 26-13 victory ruined a celebratory night for the Los Angeles Rams, who rebounded from a rough homecoming season in 2016 with an outstanding debut year under 31-year-old Sean McVay, the youngest head coach to reach the playoffs in NFL history. A raucous crowd of 74,300 packed the Coliseum on a crisp evening for the first NFL playoff game in the nationâs second-largest city since early 1994. Los Angeles went 21 years without pro football before the Rams returned last season, and the franchise emphatically ended a 13-year streak of non-winning seasons this fall with an inspiring run to the Ramsâ first division title since 2003.
â
COOPâS WHOOPS
Pharoh Cooper is headed to the Pro Bowl after his outstanding regular season as a kick returner, but the second-year proâs misadventures in his playoff debut cost the Los Angeles Rams dearly. He muffed a punt that bounced off teammate Blake Countess in the first quarter, and Matt Bryant subsequently hit the Falconsâ first field goal. After Bryantâs second field goal later in the quarter, Cooper got stripped by Damontae Kazee during a kickoff return at the Rams 32, and the Falcons drove for a TD.

SIDELINED
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce sustained a concussion on a wick
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. â Having already survived two win-or-go-home battles, the Tennessee Titans face their toughest test when they visit the defending champion New England Patriots in Saturday nightâs AFC divisional round game.
The Titans pulled out a 15-10 home win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in their regular-season finale to earn a spot in the playoffs. They then went on the road and rallied from 21-3 down and stunned the Kansas City Chiefs 22-21 to advance for the second time.
Now, the Titans are two-touchdown underdogs as the Patriots are expected by most people to take the next step toward their sixth Super Bowl crown of the Bill Belichick/Tom Brady Era.
âIt just shows that how tough of a team they are under the pressure,â New Englandâs Rob Gronkowski said earlier this week. âTheyâve basically won two playoff games â one to get into the playoffs and a playoff game last week. It just shows how tough they are, how fundamental they are and that theyâre ready to bring it in the clutch times.â
The Patriots have won the last six games between the teams and the Titans havenât won in Foxborough since 1993, when they were the Houston Oilers.
While the Titans were pulling off their major comeback against the Chiefs, the Patriots were going through another bye week, but one that was filled with controversy. An ESPN report dealt with dissension among New Englandâs power trio of owner Robert Kraft, Bill Belichick and Tom Brady â much of it centering around the Patsâ trade of Jimmy Garoppolo to the San Francisco 49ers for just a second-round draft choice.
So, the Patriots have been dealing with questions all week â as the Titans just prepare.
âYou know what, Iâll be honest with you, I donât know anything about it,â Tennessee coach Mike Mularkey said on a conference call with the New England media, regarding the controversy. âIâm not a social media guy. I donât know enough, I really donât, to make any comment about something like that.â
One thing http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-nyhe...nes-jer sey , besides championships, the Patriots have become known for is blocking out distractions. Belichick simply wonât allow any outside stimuli to affect his team.
âThroughout my years here Iâve seen a lot of negative, a lot of positive,â Gronkowski said Tuesday. âThe reputation that Coach tries to get us to have is just ignore the noise â ignore the noise from the outside and I feel like thatâs what myself and a lot of other players have been doing.
âYou just gotta ignore the noise and just focus on what weâve been doing all year and thatâs preparing hard, studying our opponent, getting ready, mentally and physically for the big game, so whatâs going on on the outside, as a team, as an organization, just gotta keep grinding, keep going, keep doing our job.â
The New England defense is spending the week preparing for mobile quarterback Marcus Mariota, a third-year pro who can make things happen with his legs. He ran 87 yards for a 2015 touchdown.
âHe actually knows when to run and when to pass the ball when scrambling,â Patriots safety Duron Harmon said Wednesday. âItâs a very unique skill because a lot of guys once they get scrambling, theyâre not even looking downfield anymore, theyâre just looking to run. But he always has his eyes downfield â always knows when to run, when to throw the pass, I would say his touch on the ball, too, that gets people open when heâs scrambling.â
Mariota, who threw 13 touchdown passes and 15 interceptions during the regular season, had two touchdown passes and one pick in the playoff win. One of the touchdowns passes actually went to himself after Darrelle Revis batted down one of his passes before Mariota caught it and scored.
But Mariota was also sixth in the NFL (Brady was first) in third-down passer rating.
Wednesday, the Titans announced running back DeMarco Murray will miss his third straight game with a knee injury, while the Patriots could get both James White and Rex Burkhead back to further fortify a running game that has excelled even without them thanks to Dion Lewis.
Earlier this week, Titansâ All-Pro safety Kevin Byard said the goal of his defense is pretty simple â turn Brady into Blake Bortles.
âItâs a playoff game, so itâs not like itâs the preseason where I can go out there, âOh, itâs Brady,â and Iâm chillinâ,â Byard said Tuesday.
âThis is a playoff game. So I donât really care if it was Joe Montana. You know what Iâm saying? Iâm trying to go out there and win the game. I want to make him look like Blake Bortles if I can and try to catch a couple picks.
âTom Brady is a great quarterback, but itâs a playoff game. Iâm not really looking at it like that.â
Cornerback Logan Ryan, a former Patriots player now with the Titans, has been limited in practice with an ankle injury.
