Since the NFL expanded the playoffs from 12 to 14 teams in 2020, No. 7 seeds were winless in the wild-card round. On Sunday, the Green Bay Packers flipped the script.
A key play that virtually sealed the Packers’ 48-32 win over the No. 2-seed Dallas Cowboys was an interception returned for a touchdown by safety Darnell Savage Jr., which brought the score to 27-0 with two minutes left in the first half.
It was his first pick of the season and the first touchdown of his career.
HE’S AN ABSOLUTE SAVAGE pic.
