NFL Playoff Schedule: Which Game Is Tops In Your Book?

The NFL Playoff Schedule is coming into focus as Week 16 concludes. The Patriots have locked up the first round bye, and we get to wait and see who plays them following the Wildcard round.

The Patriots are the team to beat going forward in the playoffs, and it's difficult to see any of the Wildcard teams getting past them. The Patriots already have beaten the Jets soundly this year, and they did it more recently thatn the Jets beating them early in the season.

The Chiefs are good, and it's difficult to say how Bill Belichick's former assistants, Charlie Weiss and Romeo Crennel, will fare against their former boss in a playoff situation, but that could end up being the game of the playoffs if that matchup happens.

Tom Brady has that offense clicking like he did in 2007, and it's a very tough road to the Super Bowl in the AFC.
