2016 NFL Playoff Predictions: Wild Card
By Keith Rivas
NFC Wild Card
The Packers visiting the Redskins is probably not — okay, really, it wasn’t at all — what anyone had in mind for what they’d be seeing this weekend.
Especially the fact that the Redskins would get to host the game.
The Packers have been struggling as of late, and, much like the Bengals, have been shown to be awfully weak after going undefeated for most of the opening stretch of the season.
They even lost the NFC North crown to the Vikings on Sunday Night Football in Week 17 — ouch.
In the other game, the Vikings hope that the Seahawks don’t have more of the same luck as a few week ago, when Seattle came on the road and demolished the Vikings.
Going up against defenses like Green Bay and Arizona, Teddy Bridgewater is a much more polished quarterback than he was at that time — he’ll look to capitalize on it and send the two-time defending conference champs packing.
