The opening lines for the 2022 NFL Super Wild-Card Weekend have been released with Kansas City and Tampa Bay the heavy favorites for their match-ups.
The 2022 NFL Super Wild Card Weekend playoff matchups are set after an unpredictable Week 18 of the 2021 season. The Tennessee Titans, after holding on 28-25 over Houston, clinched the top seed in the AFC and have earned a bye in the opening round. In the NFC, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers earned the No.1 overall seed after finishing the season with an impressive 13-4 record.
In one of the biggest upsets of the season, Indianapolis was eliminated in a win-and-in scenario, falling to lowly Jacksonville 26-11 as 14-point road favorites. The win over the Colts not only eliminated their AFC South rival's hopes for a postseason berth, but in the process also helped extend the career of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for at least one more game. The Steelers, beat the Ravens 16-13 in overtime, and will now head to Arrowhead to take on Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.
The final playoff spot was decided in Las Vegas in dramatic fashion on Sunday Night when the Raiders beat the Chargers, 35-32 in overtime. For their efforts, Derek Carr and the Silver and Black earned a trip to Cincinnati to face Joe Burrow and the Bengals.
