The top two seeds in this year’s playoffs are the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. It comes as no surprise for the Chiefs as they have been a dominant force in the AFC since hiring Andy Reid and strengthening their consistency with the addition of Patrick Mahomes just a few short years ago.
As for the Eagles, it could be a surprise to some that they finished with the most regular season wins in franchise history with fourteen, led by second-year head coach Nick Sirianni and three-year pro Jalen Hurts.
These teams have two of the most high-powered offenses in the league, with weapons like Travis Kelce, A.J. Brown, Miles Sanders, and Juju Smith-Schuster, to name a few.
As for their defenses, the Eagles defensive unit has been one of the most consistent in all of football throughout the years, while the Chiefs defense has continued to progress positively and get better week in and week out.
To move on to the rest of the postseason teams, this season in the NFL has been one of the most competitive in a while, so, therefore, each of these teams should be seen as a threat to compete for the Lombardi trophy.
The first two Super Wild Card Weekend games will occur on Saturday as the 49ers host the Seahawks to start the day, followed by a night-time matchup in Jacksonville between the Jaguars and the Chargers.
Three more games will be played on Sunday, beginning with the Dolphins heading to Buffalo to face off against the Bills, followed by the Giants at Vikings, and the Ravens playing on the road against the Bengals for the second week in a row.
Lastly, the Cowboys will travel to Tampa Bay to take on Tom Brady and the Buccaneers on Monday Night Football to cap off the first round of the 2023 NFL playoffs.
