Sunday brought the announcement of the NFL playoff schedule and for many the highlight of wild card weekend is a rematch of the AFC championship contenders from last year.
On Saturday night, the New York Jets will once again face the Indianapolis Colts to see who is the victor. The Colts are favored slightly to win, but the game is certain to be a tough match.
Sunday prime time will put two top quarterbacks against each other as the Green Bay Packers and the Philadelphia Eagles face off.
The prime time games are not the only games for wild card weekend. Saturday afternoon will be the battle between the Seattle Seahawks and the New Orleans Saints. Sunday afternoon will pit Baltimore against the Kansas City Chiefs.
