Tipping Points

After a wild-card weekend with compelling fourth quarters in all four games, the divisional round started with a 49ers blowout of the Vikings, a Titans blowout of the Ravens, and a Chiefs blowout of the Texans -- even after spotting them a 24-0 lead. The Seahawks-Packers game needed some excitement in the final period to even justify a Tipping Points column this Monday. Fortunately, the Seahawks are a reliable provider of fourth-quarter drama. This ended up being their 14th game this season decided by a single score.

Game of the Week

If the Seahawks hadn't pulled this trick all season, then I would have feared their own blowout when the Packers scored a touchdown in the final two minutes of the first half to go up 21-3.
