NFL Wild Card Weekend -- Nazareth, live from Philadelphia

There is zero chance Sofi would host both conference championship games on the same day. One would be Monday night.

Did you just misspell "gymkata?"

I was OBSESSED with seeing this movie when we got our first VCR. May have been the first movie I rented. No earthly idea why and I couldn't tell you what it was about 35-plus years later. The strange mind of a 12-year-old, I guess.

Re: AFC South, it has clearly been the worst division since the Reformation of 2002, going 428-508 (.457) against other divisions. And a lot of the wins came from a team that isn't even Southern, Indy.
It's a strange collection: three teams that moved from somewhere else plus an expansion team that has never had any consistency or fan following.

Two movers, two expansion teams.

Yeah, the Houston had a team move FROM its area. But the Texans didn't move from someplace else to Houston.

The Titans' throwback to the Oilers while playing Houston confused me.

The AFC South in general is a confusing and often unnecessary concept.

It's probably both of those I'm thinking of since I lived there then. Two days is pretty tight, especially with how they make up the stadiums these days for the big bowl games.

I think there was a Saints game and a Sugar Bowl on very tight turnaround too.

They had overnight turnarounds twice at SoFi this season.
In Week 10 the Chargers played there Sunday and the Rams on Monday. In Week 12 the Rams played Sunday and the Chargers on Monday.
Giants and Jets did it in Week 6.

The Packers become the first team since the Reformation of 2002 to go 1-5 in their intradivision play and make the playoffs. That's a beastly triumvirate in the NFC North. Best division ever by record outside the group.

Heinz Field (No, I don't want to call it Acrisure) often has one-day turnarounds, with Pitt playing there on Saturday and the Steelers there on Sunday. I'm not sure which other NFL teams share a stadium with a college program.
