Scarlet Knights in the NFL Wild Card recap, divisional preview

The wild card round is now over and only 8 teams are left with a shot at the Vince Lombardi trophy. The divisional round is thought by some to be the best football weekend of the year as the 4 games across two days showcase the best at football’s highest level.

To recap, in the first game of the wild card round, former Knight Tom Savage (concussion protocol) was passed on for Brock Osweiler to start at quarterback for the Texans hosting Oakland. The Raiders behind Connor Cook subbing for an injured Derek Carr never got it going until the game was out of reach in the fourth quarter, falling 27-14.
