NFL Gets More Interesting

The NFL regular season has come to a conclusion, and the playoffs have been determined. They are as followed:
AFC
1st Seed: Tennessee
2nd Seed: Pittsburgh
3rd Seed: Miami
4th Seed: San Diego
Wild Card #1: Indianapolis
Wild Card #2: Baltimore

NFC
1st Seed: New York (Giants)
2nd Seed: Carolina
3rd Seed: Minnesota
4th Seed: Arizona
Wild Card #1: Atlanta Falcons
Wild Card #2: Philadelphia Eagles

This season was incredibly unique, seeing things that have never come together in any other season. Star receiver Plaxico Burres (below) shot himself, Detroit went 0-16, St. Louis defeated the Cowboys, but ended at 2-14, Drew Brees threw for more than 5,000 yards but failed to make the playoffs in a tough NFC South, and Brett Favre returned to football with the New York Jets, only to lose a playoff spot to the guy he kicked out: Chad Pennington and the Miami Dolphins (who vastly improved after going 1-15 last season). Things will be sure to stay interesting as the playoffs progress.
