B6 | WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 6, 2021 WACO TRIBUNE-HERALD SPORTS REMATCHES ON TAP NFL | PLAYOFFS Ravens at Titans is among most intriguing wild-card games BARRY WILNER Associated Press T he field for the Super Bowl chase is set, from the rested in Kansas City and Pittsburgh to the relieved in Cleveland, Chicago and Los Angeles. There are some powerhouses and some pretenders — and a team with a losing record. The reigning Super Bowl cham- pion Chiefs (14-2) and Green Bay (13-3) earned each conference’s lone bye in the expanded play- offs. And no, adding a third wild-card entrant is not why a 7-9 club made the field. Washington “earned” that spot by winning the abysmal NFC East that displayed in the finale of the reg- ular season why NFC Least has been so appropri- ate a moniker. So while New York Giants fans scream that Ea- gles coach Doug Pederson didn’t truly play to beat Washing- ton on Sunday night, it should emphasized that the Giants went 6-10, a record more in line with relegation than reward. Besides, coach Ron Rivera dealing with skin cancer and quarterback Alex Smith return- ing from an injury that nearly cost him his leg, those are redemptive and rewarding plots. “This one’s special just because of how hard it was,” Rivera said. “How tough everything was, how it’s been on the guys, the organization. There’s a great group of young men in there and we’re trying to do things the right way. It’s really a cool thing to come out and get the division.” As for the spoils, here’s who plays in the wild card round and how it might look. Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs celebrates a touchdown catch during a game earlier this season in Foxborough, Mass. Saints quarterback Drew Brees sets to throw a pass during a game earlier this season in New Orleans. SATURDAY Indianapolis (11-5) at Buffalo (13-3) Frank Reich has been a hero in West- ern New York since engineering the great comeback in NFL history while replacing the injured Jim Kelly in a 1992 opening-round matchup with the Houston Oilers. Reich now coaches the Colts, and he’ll remain heroic in Buffalo if they go quietly against what has been the league’s most impressive team over the last month. This might be Colts QB Philip Rivers’ final game, but it’s the Indy defense that must stand tall here. That’s a tall order the way Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs and the Bills are going. Los Angeles Rams (10-6) at Seattle (12-4) It’s a third go-around for the NFC West rivals who split during the regular season. Both have strong defenses and been spotty on offense, Los Angeles far more so than Seattle. The Rams clinched their spot in the playoffs without the inconsistent Jared Goff (thumb surgery) at quarterback. The Seahawks have no issues at that position with Russell Wilson, though his first half of the season was far better than the last two months. Tampa Bay (11-5) at Washington (7-9) The Washington story for sure is uplifting, particularly the way Ri- vera is leading a change in culture for a franchise so desperately needing it. And the last three teams to capture di- vision titles without a winning record also pulled off upsets in the wild-card round. Don’t look for much of that in prime time, not with Tom Brady leading the Buccaneers, who are balanced enough to threaten anyone. You remember Brady. If not, tune in to this one and see him likely dismantle Washing- ton’s impressive but inexperi- enced defense. SUNDAY Baltimore (11-5) at Tennessee (11-5) The Titans rode Derrick Henry’s rushing power, agility and underrated speed to a stunning upset in Baltimore a year ago. They still are riding Henry, who became the eighth player to gain 2,000 yards on the ground in a season. Tennessee also can throw the ball better than it could last season. Alas, the Titans barely play any de- fense. So with the Ravens having a more diverse but just as effective running game and a sturdy D — not to mention the memories of that beatdown last January — Henry and Co. have an even bigger task ahead in Baltimore this time. Chicago (8-8) at New Orleans (12-4) The Bears, perhaps the other NFC in- terloper, almost belong in the Least, uh, East. They went from 5-1 to 5-7 before finishing strongly enough to sneak in. Their defense is dangerous if not quite Monsters of the Midway, and they can compete when they run the ball well. If the Saints get some of their running backs back from the COVID-19 list — particularly scoring machine Alvin Kamara — they will be favored heavily. This could be Drew Brees’ last shot at a second NFL title, too. And New Orleans has a defense to match Chicago’s. Cleveland (11-5) at Pittsburgh (12-4) This had to be the topper for the weekend’s action. One of the grand rivalries of the sport, and it just was played out in Week 17 — albeit with the Steelers resting a bunch of regulars. Yet Pittsburgh pushed Cleveland to the limit before the Browns snapped the league’s longest playoff drought, dat- ing to 2003. Can the Browns win again in the wild-card matchup? Sure, as long as they get their ample running game go- ing and don’t have another COVID-19 outbreak like the one that hit in the last two weeks. The Steelers have lost four of their last five, but they also have won 17 straight at home against Cleveland. Ben Roethlisberger will be back and he’s 23-2-1 in his career against the Browns. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson breaks free for yards during Sunday’s game in Cincinnati. ASSOCIATED PRESS PHOTOS TOM WITHERS—ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND — Amid a masked, muted celebration in the locker room after the Browns ended the NFL’s longest playoff drought, coach Kevin Stefanski asked for a game ball and then told Pro Bowl guard Joel Bitonio to step forward. Stefanski flipped the ball to Bi- tonio, who had survived seven long seasons, 0-16 in 2017, the Johnny Manziel mess and numer- ous coaching changes. “You’re going to the playoffs, 75,” Stefanki told Bitonio. Two days later, nothing is certain with the Browns. Positive COVID-19 tests have knocked Stefanski, Bitonio, wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge and at least two assistant coaches out of Cleveland’s wild-card game at Pittsburgh on Sunday night — the Browns’ first playoff appearance since the 2002 season. The Browns announced Tues- day — 18 years to the day since their last playoff game — that Stefanski tested positive for the coronavirus, which has plagued the team in re- cent weeks and has thrown Cleve- land’s plans this week into disarray for the wild-card game. In less than 48 hours, joy for the Browns and their fans long-suffer- ing fans was all but extinguished. “Very sad,”Browns center and NFLPA President JC Tretter said. “It’s really unfortunate.” Now, after beating the Steelers last Sunday to make the playoff field,the Browns are implementing contingency plans drawn up when the pandemic began. Stefanski, who in his first year re- turned the Browns to respectabil- ity, can only coach virtually from home this week. He’ll be replaced by special teams coordinator Mike Priefer, and the Browns will have to make other staff adjustments as tight ends coach Drew Petzing and defensive backs coach Jeff Howard are also out. Despite the Browns’ issues — they now have eight rotational players and five coaches on the COVID-19 list — league spokesman Brian McCarthy said the game is on schedule. McCarthy added the league is continuing to conduct contact trac- ing to identify any possible high- risk close contacts. NFL rules state that anyone testing positive must be away from the team at least 10 days. “If any players or personnel are identified as such, they would re- main apart from the team and fa- cilities for five days from the last exposure to a positive individual,” McCarthy wrote in an email.“They would be eligible to return to the team and play in the game.” It’s still possible the Browns will lose other players after contact tracing is completed. The genomic sequencing con- ducted by the league and its medi- cal partner last week showed Cleve- land’s cases were unconnected, meaning the cases came from out- side and weren’t spread within the team’s headquarters. Tretter said on a union confer- ence call that he expects the build- ing to remain closed Wednesday, when the Browns were scheduled to have their first practice this week. Tretter said he had been in touch with Bitonio. “I feel for him,” Tretter said. “Obviously with what he’s gone through, what he’s endured over his career and finally finding that success for the first time and then it being taken away at the last second, it’s hard. I feel for all the guys that won’t be able to play for the first playoff game. “Extremely tough. This is just a terrible scenario for him and for everybody involved.” Because Bitonio and Hodge played in the 24-22 win over the Steelers last Sunday, there would seem to be concern that some Pittsburgh players could be in- fected. However, McCarthy said the league has “found no evidence of player-to-player transmission from practices or games through- out this season.” With Stefanski out, coordinator Alex Van Pelt will assume Cleve- land’s play-calling duties. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, who spent a few minutes speaking with Stefanski on the field Sunday, said he’s not concerned about playing the Browns twice in eight days. “I have complete confidence in the protocol outlined by the NFL,” Tomlin said. “We work hard to adhere to it; if we do that, we will minimize risk.That’s my mentality regarding it, so I won’t spend a lot of time worrying about those com- ponents.” The Steelers have their own COVID-19 issues.Starting corner- back Joe Haden and tight end Eric Ebron missed Sunday’s loss after being placed on the COVID-19 list a day earlier. Haden tested positive; his status for the playoff game re- mains uncertain. Cleveland has been one of the teams hit hardest by the virus. The Browns were without six players, including star cornerback Den- zel Ward, and three assistants last weekend for their biggest game in years after a rash of positive tests. Also, star defensive end Myles Garrett missed two games after contracting COVID-19. Garrett has had a difficult time shaking the disease and recently said he was still undergoing breathing treatments.
