The NFL playoffs are underway, and we officially know the four teams who will move on next week.
It’s probably the most boring and overrated playoffs we’ve ever had to deal with though, so if you like watching good football and rooting for impressive teams (the Eagles), then don’t even feel like you have to keep reading. You can just take the day off and nurse your sorrows. (RELATED: Carson Wentz Releases Heartfelt Message After Playoff Loss. Here’s What He Said)
For those of us who have to keep on keeping on despite this heartache, here you go.
The Chiefs spanked the Colts in a borderline shocking fashion:

Clear dead cat bounce from Patriots here. Dynasty is still dead. Chiefs win big next week. It’s science.

And the Eagles lost in a heart-tugging, shocking, dramatic, cry-your-heart-out fashion (despite a huge gain in the beginning):
