The NFL playoffs are here!

After 17 weeks, 12 teams have emerged for a postseason that looks intriguing on a number of levels. Can anyone in the AFC stop the Patriots? Will the Cowboys' dynamic rookie duo of Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott continue to shine in elimination games? The Packers have won six straight and the Steelers have won seven - will they keep rolling through the Wild Card Weekend?

This weekend, the Saturday games feel like an appetizer for Sunday. Raiders-Texans and Lions-Seahawks should both be fun, but Sunday's slate of Dolphins-Steelers and Giants-Packers should be even better.

Here are our rankings entering the playoffs.

Enjoy the games!
