We look at all of the Wild Card action across the NFL

We look at the Miami Dolphins moving on from Mike McDaniel, the Tennessee Titans head coaching search continuing, key matchups in the NFL playoffs and more.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers face mounting pressure as Todd Bowles stays on as head coach despite missing the playoffs and a turbulent end to the season

The NFL Playoffs kick off this weekend and the best game of them all is the Jacksonville Jaguars against the Buffalo Bills. This is a matchup of two highly explosive offenses with dynamic quarterbacks. We also get two NFC superpowers as the Philadelphia Eagles host the San Francisco 49ers in a game the Eagles should win due to the 49ers lack of pass rush. In the AFC, the Pittsburgh Steelers host the Houston Texans in what is the most underrated matchup of the weekend and Aaron Rodgers is the perfect quarterback to take on that Texans defense. The Green Bay Packers against the Chicago Bears is also must-see TV as the oldest rivalry in the NFL gets another installment with some juicy storylines. Drake Maye and the New England Patriots host the Los Angeles Chargers in what could be the most lopsided game of the weekend, but the Carolina Panthers hosting the Los Angeles Rams could also take that title even if Carolina won the previous matchup. Finally, John Harbaugh was fired by the Baltimore Ravens on Tuesday in a move that is a bit surprising and has sent a shockwave through the NFL.

The NFL season is over and that means it is time to talk AWARDS. For the MVP, Matthew Stafford is the clear MVP over Drake Maye. Maye dominated the weakest schedule in recent memory while Stafford led the Rams through the toughest division in football with far better numbers. The offensive player of the year discussion is really down to two wide receivers who also reside in the NFC West, but Jaxon Smith-Njigba deserves the award more than Puka Nacua. On defense, there is not much discussion to be had as Myles Garrett had the greatest season for a pass rusher in NFL history, breaking the all time sack record in less snaps than the two previous holders. Finally, coach of the year is especially difficult, but the job Mike MacDonald has done with the Seahawks deserves the award based on the defensive performance and the risky offseason changes. Offensive rookie of the year should go to Tetairoa McMillan and not a quarterback while the defensive rookie of the year award so go to another Seahawk, Nick Emmanwori.

Arizona Cardinals shake up the NFL by firing Jonathan Gannon—what's next for Kyler Murray and the future of the franchise?

The NFL stocked the unemployment line as it typically does on 'BLACK MONDAY,' but not every move was a positive as the Cleveland Browns made a major mistake by letting Kevin Stefanski go after they sabotaged him with terrible quarterbacks and the worst trade in NFL history. However, the Las Vegas Raiders did make a good decision to move on from Pete Carroll as the game has simply past him by. The Arizona cardinals canned Johnathan Gannon and while that may be justified, the Cardinals are clearly the worst opening of all the current jobs. The Atlanta Falcons may be the BEST open job with all the talent they have on the roster. Finally, some teams have decided to bring back their decision makers like the Indianapolis Colts keeping the brain trust of Shane Steichen and Chris Ballard and the New York Giants bringing back general manager Joe Schoen. Both of these moves are mistakes for each team. The Baltimore Ravens and Green Bay Packers still seem undecided on any future changes.

Aaron Rodgers came up CLUTCH for the Pittsburgh Steelers and led them not only to a game-winning drive, but a division championship. Now, Rodgers gets a matchup who he be able to neutralize in the playoffs and the Steelers have a real shot in the green AFC. For the Baltimore Ravens, a loss not only knocks them out of the playoffs, but also brings up questions about Lamar Jackson and John Harbaugh's futures. The Atlanta Falcons kicked off 'Black Monday' in the NFL a little early, firing head coach Raheem Morris and general manager Terry Fontenot in a stern cleaning of house. While Fontenot deserved his ousting, it is a small surprise to see Morris go after finishing the season strong. In the NFC South, the Carolina Panthers won the division by default after the Falcons beat the New Orleans Saints. Even after losing themselves to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday. The Panthers aren't serious threats and drawing a rematch with the Los Angeles Rams doesn't help. In the west, the Seattle Seahawks won the division and the top seed, giving the San Francisco 49ers a rough match with the Philadelphia Eagles and setting up an NFC North rematch with the Chicago Bears hosting the Green Bay Packers. In the AFC, the Denver Broncos held on for the top seed, leaving the New England Patriots to the second slot. This creates a great matchup between the Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars!

We look at all of the NFL action of Week 18.

The Baltimore Ravens have a win-and-in game against the Pittsburgh Steelers for the AFC North division title and the stakes could not be higher as it feels like both teams could see MAJOR changes if they don't come out on top. For the Ravens, whispers seem to be saying that change could include a Lamar Jackson trade. In the NFC South, the Carolina Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers battle for the crown, but the issue is, even if the Bucs win, the Atlanta Falcons winning over the New Orleans Saints means they still lose the playoff spot. Finally, the Jacksonville Jaguars look to close the AFC South division title, but need to make sure not to mess around against a scrappy Tennessee Titans team that would love to spoil their run. They also have to worry about the Houston Texans, who get to terrorize Riley Leonard and the Indianapolis Colts to finish their season and keep their division hopes alive.

The NFL Playoffs are one week away and there are matchups we are hoping to see in Round 1 like the Chicago Bears taking on the Green Bay Packers in a trilogy of NFC North madness. The New England Patriots need to prove their season with a third matchup against the Buffalo Bills. In the AFC, there may be no more compelling matchup than the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Houston Texans, but the Steelers have to make the dance first with a win over the Baltimore Ravens. The Jacksonville Jaguars have the most explosive offense in the conference and it could make for a very exciting game with the Bills as well. In the NFC West, basically any of the three playoff participants will make for compelling football, but seeing the Los Angeles Rams go to Chicago would be a lot of fun and the Seattle Seahawks going to Tampa Bay to play the Buccaneers also could be enjoyable.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are the most dangerous team in the AFC and the second-most dangerous might be the Houston Texans, but the Jaguars overall approach makes them the scarier option. Speaking of scary, the New England Patriots got terrifying news on Tuesday about Stefon Diggs in an allegedly legal situation. If Diggs were to be absent, it would severely hinder the Patriots' chances. The Denver Broncos would certainly benefit and may be the more serious threat out of the two top seeds anyways. Finally, the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens will battle for the AFC North while the Carolina Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers fight for the NFC South and Luke Braun joins Tyler Rowland to make his picks for both battles.

The Los Angeles Rams had to make a big comeback to find victory on Monday Night Football and they weren't able to pull it off, falling in a close one to the Atlanta Falcons. However, it is not time to worry about the Rams. In the NFC, it comes down the the NFC West for the top seed as the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers are the only teams vying for the honor. San Francisco needs to go all out for the #1 seed as it would result in only home games all the way to the Super Bowl. The battle for the top seed in the AFC comes down to Week 18 as the Denver Broncos, New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars all still have a shot. Denver has the easiest path, just needing a win, while the Patriots simply need to win and have the Broncos lose and tje Jaguars need both of them to lose while they win. The Chargers face the Broncos, but they are sitting Justin Herbert, making Denver's path easiest, but it is the Patriots who need the top spot the most. They are still a true Super Bowl contender, even if the path will be more difficult now. The AFC and NFC South remain unsolved going into the final week of the regular season. Tyler and Lorin make their picks for who will take the final two spots.
