NFL Wild Card weekend is here. Saturday and Sunday will each have two games, starting with a matchup between the Raiders and Texans at NRG Stadium tomorrow. Rookie Connor Cook is making his first career start at quarterback for Oakland, while Houston is going back to Brock Osweiler. The first day's action concludes with the Seahawks hosting the Lions at CenturyLink Field. Detroit's lost in this round in seven straight appearances. Seattle is hoping to advance to the Super Bowl for the third time in four seasons.
On Sunday, the Dolphins are back in the postseason for the first time since 2008, facing the Steelers at Heinz Field. Miami mauled Pittsburgh during the regular season 30-15, but Ben Roethlisberger left that game with an injury. The highlight of the weekend is the final game when the Giants return to Lambeau Field to play the Packers. They've met in Green Bay during the playoffs in 2011 and 2007, with New York winning both meetings. The Giants went on to win the Super Bowl in both cases. The Patriots, Chiefs, Falcons and Cowboys all have a first-round bye.
