Who are the winners and losers from the NFL‘s Wild Card Weekend?

Wild Card Weekend is in the books and the NFL once again delivered the goods. Four great games, albeit one marred by some brutal officiating, and if the outcomes weren’t as close as we’ve seen in the past, it was still a very enjoyable weekend of football.

We’ve got a Wild Card edition of winners and losers for you today with some individual players as well as some teams on the bill. There’s a modicum of unfairness and injustice in some of these, in part because we’re talking about narratives and also because if you made the playoffs maybe the word ‘loser’ shouldn’t be placed on you.

But the point isn’t to make the playoffs – it’s to win a Super Bowl. Some folks fell short on that this weekend.

Make sure you add your winners and losers in the comments.
