For NFL fans around the country the playoffs are supposed to be the fruits reaped from the labor of a 16-game NFL season. It’s a grind, even for Patriots fans I’d imagine, and we’re supposed to be rewarded with the best of the best going head-to-head for 60 minutes, with constant, heart-wrenching drama and lead changes and plays we’ll tell stories about for generations to come.
But the two blowouts in the conference championship round may have sealed the deal; this postseason might have been the worst one we’ve ever seen… at least in quite a while.
So, uh, what happened in 2017?
Well, there was roughly one game that was well above average and that was the Packers-Cowboys division-round game. That’s about it. Pretty much every other game was either boring as dirt for the vast majority of its 60 minutes, or it was a complete blowout.
AJ adds: The outcome of the conference championships was expected. What was not expected was the loss of the Cowboys to GB. Were the Cowboys to have won that game, they would have played better against Atlanta. Well, wait till next year.
