Default Re: NFL Playoffs Results & Updates

Wild Card Sunday (1/8/2012) Playoff Results:


Atlanta Falcons 2 New York Giants 24

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Eli Manning threw three touchdown passes, and the New York Giants ran all over the Atlanta Falcons in a 24-2 rout in an NFC wild-card game Sunday.

Manning, who's having his best NFL season, connected with Hakeem Nicks for a 72-yard score and Mario Manningham on a 27-yarder as the Giants (10-7) pulled away from the inept Falcons (10-7) in the second half.

Manning also threw a 4-yard TD pass to Nicks in the first half, which came after the quarterback scrambled 14 yards to spark the 85-yard drive. While Manning came through with touchdown passes, the tempo was set by New York's defense, which never allowed Atlanta to get going, and the league's lowest-ranked rushing game, which ran for a season-high 172 yards.

Brandon Jacobs led the way with 92 yards on 14 carries.
The Giants travel to Green Bay next Sunday to play the defending Super Bowl champion Packers (15-1), who beat them 38-35 in December.


Pitsburgh Steelers-23 Denver Broncos-29

DENVER -- One of the most storied NFL playoff teams ran into a rejuvenated Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos.

Sorry, Pittsburgh Steelers. The magic is back.

Tebow connected with Demaryius Thomas on an electrifying 80-yard touchdown pass on the first play of overtime, and the Broncos defeated the stunned Steelers 29-23 in the AFC wild-card playoff game Sunday. The play took 11 seconds and was the quickest ending to an overtime in NFL history.

Thomas hauled in a high play-action pass at the Denver 38, stiff-armed Pittsburgh cornerback Ike Taylor, then outraced safety Ryan Mundy to the end zone. Tebow knelt in his own end zone, pounding a fist in triumph before taking a victory lap in jubilation.

Behind Tebow's 316 passing yards, the Broncos (9-8) are heading to New England for a divisional playoff game against the top-seeded Patriots on Saturday night.

The Steelers (12-5) lost despite Ben Roethlisberger rallying them from a two-touchdown halftime deficit with 10 points in the final 10 minutes.
