Morning, all. Yesterday the AFC played its Wild Card round. Today, the NFC is on center stage, with the first wild card game starting in Minnesota this afternoon.
The Seattle Seahawks announced on Friday night that Marshawn Lynch would ultimately not be available for today's game. Lynch had missed almost half the season after abdominal surgery, but had been practicing this past week in anticipation that he would be available for the Seahawks' game. Reports have indicated that Lynch lacked "explosion" and didn't feel ready to play. Without Lynch (and Jimmy Graham) in the lineup, the Seahawks didn't crumble, which has led to questions on whether Lynch would be back next season.
