NFL Playoffs--Round 2--Divisional Playoffs


This weekend we are entering Round 2 of the 2010 NFL Season Playoffs...the Divisional Playoff games!

For all fans who like NFL games on Saturday...this weekend we have 2 more games being played that day, January 15 with the other 2 games being played on Sunday January 16.

The Saturday action starts with the AFC Divisional Matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh starting at 4:30PM Eastern.  This looks to be an exciting game matching up 2 AFC North divisional rivals.

The other Saturday game is the first of the NFC Divisional Playoff matches with the Green Bay Packers visiting the Atlanta Falcons at the Georgia Dome at 8:30PM Eastern.  Atlanta was seeded No. 1 this year in the NFC playoffs based on their regular season record.

After you all get some rest Saturday night, we have the two matchups on Sunday...starting at 1PM Eastern as the surprising Seattle Seahawks visit the Windy City to meet the Chicago Bears in the NFC game.

The AFC game at 4:30PM Eastern once again matches up 2 divisional rivals, this time from the AFC East as the New York Jets, who won last week's wildcard playoff game with a last second score to beat the Indianapolis Colts by one point, visit the New England Patriots at Foxboro.  Tom Brady vs. Mark Sanchez will certainly show as the marquee game of the day...but with the NFL, it's wait and see if the action matches the hype!

Next week, the winners of all these games meet up on Sunday January 23 to play in their respective Conference Championship playoff games.  Times and locations to be determined after all the games end this weekend.  Stay tuned to the DJ Joe D blog for updates!

Update: January 16:

So the Championship Series are set in both Conferences for next Sunday (January 23).

The early game is the NFC Championship matchup at Soldier Field in Chicago where the Bears host their NFC North division rivals, the Green Bay Packers

Later Sunday evening is the AFC Championship game from Heinz Field in Pittsburgh...the Steelers and the New York Jets.

More about these games later this week!
