It could be another crazy weekend of NFL playoff football. After some hair-raising games last weekend, the NFL is ready for more.
According to the league, 12 of the last 13 postseason games have been within one score in the fourth quarter, including five of six Wild Card contests last week.
Four of the six 2022 playoff games so far, and 11 of the last 13 postseason contests dating to the start of the 2021 Divisional Playoffs, have been decided by seven points or less. Eight of those 13 have been separated by no more than three points.
Eight of the last 13 playoff games have also been decided in the last two minutes of regulation or in overtime.
And, teams have scored the winning points on the game’s final play in six of the past 13 NFL postseason contests.
What’s in store next?
