Green Bay would strike first on an Aaron Jones 3 yard touchdown run in the first quarter. After Jones scored again on a run in the second quarter, Love would throw his first of three touchdown passes in the game to Dontayvion Wicks to make the score 20-0.

Dolphins Crushed By Chiefs 26-7 In Coldest Game of the Season

The Miami Dolphins & Kansas City Chiefs were one of two games that kicked off Wild Card Saturday of the NFL Playoffs today. The weather outside proved to be frightful. Because of inclement weather another playoff scheduled game (Bills vs. Steelers) was postponed until Monday afternoon.

The Chiefs and Dolphins would take the field with temperature of -4 (-27 wind chill) at kickoff. USA Today reports that Coach Andy Reid’s mustache had been covered by icicles for three quarters. Miami could not get their offense together as they only produced one passing touchdown by Tyreek Hill.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker

Kansas City would have kicker Harrison Butker to thank for another great playoff performance as his 4 field goals tonight would set a Chiefs postseason record. The rest of the game would see the Dolphins struggle to do anything with the ball offensively.

HOW BAD WAS IT FOR MIAMI?

The Dolphins would freeze up similar to the weather they played in. Miami went 1-12 on third down conversions. Besides the touchdown from Hill in the first half, Miami would have less than 100 yards of total offense going into the fourth quarter.

WHAT HAPPENS NOW

With this loss the Dolphins’ season has come to a cold, bitter end. After being in control of their playoff destiny last month, Miami has seen their playoff hopes dashed in the wild card round for the second year in a row.

The Chiefs move on to the AFC Divisional Round, where a number of outcomes await the reigning Super Bowl Champions. Going to Buffalo next would be Mahomes’s first road playoff game. They could also end up staying at home to face a Houston Texans team that is on a tear in the playoffs right now.

Let us know what you think of today’s game in the comments down below.

BROWNS vs. TEXANS | SUPER WILD CARD SATURDAY

The Cleveland Browns and Houston Texans kicked off Wild Card Saturday of the NFL Playoffs this afternoon. The Browns (11-6) came into this game as the 5th seed, while the Texans (10-7) were the 4th seed. On paper it would be a formidable match between two hungry AFC teams.

It would begin as a close matchup. Cleveland would score in the first quarter off a Kareem Hunt touchdown. Houston would answer with C.J Stround finding Nico Collins for a score late in the quarter. The second quarter saw the Texans gather steam on offense. Stroud would throw for two more big touchdowns to make the score 24-14 at halftime.

HOUSTON DEFENSE TOO MUCH FOR BROWNS

In the third quarter, the Texans defense would also put points on the board. Browns QB Joe Flacco would throw not one, but two costly interceptions that were ran back for scores. The first came from Steve Nelson for 82 yards and the second pick was returned by Christian Harris for 36 yards.

(Video Cred: ESPN)

With the score 38-14 going into the fourth quarter, any hope of a comeback in this game for Cleveland was all but lost.

The last score of this contest came from the Texans as RB Devin Singletary would score on a 19 yard run early in the 4th quarter. Even with the magic that Flacco and the Browns had going into the game, it wasn’t enough to slow the momentum of a Texans team that is riding an incredible wave with their rookie QB and rookie coach Demarco Ryan.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE TEXANS

Texans QB C.J. Stroud

With this win the Houston Texans will advance to the AFC Divisional Round. Because the NFL re-seeds in the playoffs, the Texans’ opponent will not be known until all Wild Card games are completed. With a victory, the Texans would travel to Baltimore, Buffalo, Kansas City, or host Miami.

Stroud would also become the youngest NFL QB in history to win a playoff game. Houston will hit the road and face the top-seeded Ravens in Baltimore IF the Chiefs AND Bills both win their home playoff games. The Texans will go to Buffalo next week if the Bills beat the Steelers, and the Dolphins beat the Chiefs. The Texans play at Kansas City if the Chiefs win and the Bills lose to Pittsburgh.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals met in a Week 17 matchup with huge playoff implications on the line. The Bengals were fighting for their chance to make the postseason coming into today’s game with an 8-7 record. The Chiefs (9-6) would need to win this game in order to secure the AFC West title.

In a very tight game it was Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker who would decide the outcome of the game. His career-best 6 for 6 on field goal attempts would push Kansas City to a 25-17 victory.

Rough Night For The Bengals

This high stakes game was not without its moments. Midway through the game, tensions ran high as Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase and the Chiefs’  L’Jarius Sneed got into a heated argument, and eventually a team-wide scrum resulted in offsetting personal fouls.

After falling behind 17-10 the Chiefs began to apply pressure. ESPN reports that they stuffed the Bengals on fourth-and-1 at the Kansas City 6, then drove 82 yards for Butker’s third field goal. And after the Bengals had to punt, Mahomes hit Rashee Rice for 67 yards to set up Butker’s chip shot and give the Chiefs the lead for good.

The Dallas Cowboys hosted the Detroit Lions tonight as the regular season is winding down. Both teams have punched their respective tickets to the playoffs. The Lions were 11-4 coming into tonights game while the Cowboys boasted a 10-5 record.

Cowboys WR Ceedee Lamb had a remarkable game. He would secure the first touchdown for Dallas on a 92 yard touchdown pass from Dak Prescott. He finished the game with 13 catches for 227 yards and broke two of Michael Irvins’s single season club records from 1995.

What Cost The Lions The Game

With Detroit trailing 20-13 in the fourth quarter, Lions QB Jared Goff led his team down the field with under a minute to go in the game and no timeouts. He would connect on three passes that took them down to the red zone. Goff would then connect with Amon-Ra St. Brown for an 11 yard touchdown pass, making the score 20-19.

This is where things would take a turn.

Instead of kicking a field goal that would have tied the game and sent it to overtime, Detroit went aggressive and attempted a two-point conversion. Goff threw a pass to lineman Taylor Decker, but he was ruled to be an ineligible receiver.

After the penalty the Lions went for 2 again from the 7-yard line and were stopped on an interception that didn’t even reach the end zone, but the Cowboys were called for offsides. On a last ditch effort, Goff threw a pass to James Mitchell but it would fall incomplete and that sealed the game.

What’s Next For Dallas & Detroit

With Week 18 on the horizon, The Cowboys (11-5) will head to Washington next week to play the Commanders. Detroit (11-5) will host the Minnestota Vikings. The Lions secured the NFC North and are the #3 seed behind the 49ers and Eagles.

Dallas is cuurently in a dead heat with the Eagles to secure the NFC East crown. The Cowboys need to win their game next week and hope that the Eagles lose to the Cardinals to take the division.

There are several people talking about the controversial end to this game. What do you think of the outcome? Check out this video of Troy Aikman and Joe Buck with their thoughts on the game down below.

Cardi B & Offset have been the talk of social media as rumors have circled the couple for weeks. While there is plenty to speculate, the “Bartier Cardi” rapper has confirmed her split from the Migos member.

ENews reports that Cardi took to her IG live to finally address the situation. She stated in her clip “I’ve been single for a minute now, but I have been afraid to like—not afraid I just don’t know how to tell the world. But I feel like today has been a sign. The last time I got on Live I kind of wanted to tell you guys, but I didn’t know how to tell you, so I changed my mind. But it has been like this for a minute now. I just took it as a sign.”

In the clip she continued, “I wanna start 2024, like, fresh, open. I don’t know. I’m curious for a new life, for a new beginning. And yeah, I’m excited.”

HOW WE GOT HERE

Married in 2017, Cardi B and Offset began their journey as a married couple. Though done in secret, it was public on how much the couple loved one another. In 2018 they welcomed their first child, Kulture to the world. They seemed adamant on maintaining their marriage amongst the rumors of Offset’s infidelity.

Even after going to his IG  with an emotional plea that he later featured on his Father of 4 debut studio album, Offset was remorseful. He stated “We’re going through a lot of things right now, a lot of things in the media. I want to apologize to you Cardi. I embarrassed you.”

Cardi & Offset would work things out. The couple would re-emerge as the best new power couple.

WHERE THEY STAND NOW

The union between Cardi & Offset was ended in September of last year. The female MC filed for divorce from Offset after only three years of marriage. It was during their separation that they decided to give things a try once again. In a statement from Offset’s attorney he announced “I can confirm that the divorce filed by Cardi B has been dismissed.”

The couple would also announce a new joint project. At the 2021 BET Awards Cardi dropped the news that she was pregnant with their second child.
