Through the first seven quarters of wild-card weekend, it looked like we had the most boring playoffs in history at hand. And then all Burfict broke out. What followed was a wild final quarter in Cincinnati, a frozen game in Minnesota with an unbelievable finish and then an entertaining Redskins-Packers game, for three quarters at least.

1. All four road teams — Kansas City, Pittsburgh, Seattle and Green Bay — won for the first time ever in a wild-card or divisional round.

This shouldn’t come as the biggest shock as each of those teams were favored at some point during the week and only Green Bay entered its game against the Redskins as an underdog (and a one-point underdog at that). But despite all that, football’s a game of surprises and upsets, so for all four visiting teams to pick up a win is not just stunning but also historic. Of course, it took some major help for this to go down: Bengals’ Vontaze Burfict and Pacman Jones did more to win the game for Pittsburgh than any member of the Steelers, Blair Walsh had one of the worst playoff chokes the NFL has ever seen and DeSean Jackson’s lazy, showboat play gave life to a Packers team that had been on life support since the start of November.

2. All four home teams are favored in the divisional playoffs.

Not a big surprise, I know. The four teams that get byes can’t sneak into the playoffs, like some of the wild-card teams hosting games, so they tend to be, you know, good. That being said, the closeness of some of the spreads (and the largeness of another) are a bit surprising. These were the opening lines for divisional playoff weekend.

Pittsburgh (+7) at Denver

Kansas City (+4) at New England

Seattle (+1.5) at Carolina

Green Bay (+7) at Arizona

I’m both surprised by Kansas City only getting four in New England (a sign that the Chiefs are finally getting some due respect or a lack of faith in the Pats?). And Denver laying a touchdown? That’s clearly Roethlisberger inspired, but it’s not like the Broncos put up huge numbers so — gambling is bad.

3. The Washington Redskins became just the second team since 1998 to lose two straight playoff games in which they held double-digit leads.

That stat according to our friends at pro-football-reference.

The only other team to blow 2+ 10-pt leads in the playoffs since 1998 is Green Bay https://t.co/EIHg04gbSV https://t.co/RB7EFQ8hKp — ProFootballReference (@pfref) January 11, 2016

The Redskins were up 14-0 on the Seattle Seahawks in their 2012 wild-card game — the one in which Mike Shanahan didn’t pull Robert Griffin III after it was clear he was suffering from a major injury — and lost 24-14 (despite holding a 14-13 fourth-quarter lead). On Sunday, the ‘Skins led 11-0 over Green Bay, yet it was hard to shake the feeling that after DeSean Jackson failed to score a touchdown at 2-0, it was going to be all Packers, even as the Redskins moved the ball down the field on one more drive and briefly held a second-half lead.

4. No rushers had more than 100 yards this weekend.

Only Alfred Blue (on Houston, oddly) came close, with 99 yards. Every other “leading” rusher for each team had fewer than 70 yards. Adrian Peterson had the worst average for any starting back, with less than two yards per carry — 23 rushes for 45 yards.

5. Seven of the eight quarterbacks had less than 230 yards passing.

The low for the weekend was Brian Hoyer throwing for 136 in his team’s 30-0 blowout loss to the Chiefs. Russell Wilson only had 142 yards in the cold, just four yards less than Teddy Bridgewater did. The big passer for the week? Kirk Cousins, who threw for 329 yards in the Redskins’ 17-point loss to Green Bay.

6. The two most maligned divisions lived up to expectations.

The NFC East (Redskins) and AFC South (Texans) lost by a combined 47 points after its champions went 18-14 in the regular season and were mocked for much of the year. The two North champions (the Vikings and Bengals) lost by three points combined.

7. The Packers won their record ninth wild-card game.

I don’t know how much of an achievement that is. One one hand, it’s nine playoff wins. On the other, it means you’re not getting a bye too much. What I do know is that the Indianapolis Colts would probably put up a banner for this.

8. The Steelers tied the Cowboys for most postseason wins ever, with 34.

Now, THIS is impressive. Though half the credit should go to Vontaze Burfict, the Steelers tied Dallas with their 34th postseason win on Saturday and could pass the Cowboys next week against the Patriots. Or in any of the next seven years when Johnny Manziel doesn’t lead the Cowboys to the playoffs while the Steelers pick up a few wins here and there.

9. Since 2010, the Seahawks are 5-2 when trailing by 9+ points in a playoff game. The rest of the NFL is 6-41.

That one comes from ESPN Stats & Info and is simply mind-boggling. That’s a winning percentage of 71.4% for Seattle and 12.8% for the rest of the NFL. And, as we said, Sunday’s comeback win by Seattle was horrible news for the rest of the NFC. Don’t give the two-time reigning champs any life, y’all.

10. The Seahawks were the third team in playoff history to win a game after getting shut out in the first three quarters.

The other teams to pull victory from the jaws of defeat/Blair Walsh’s leg were the 1978 Atlanta Falcons and 1948 Philadelphia Eagles.

11. Only five playoff games have the winning score be less than 10 points, which Seattle won with on Sunday.

And since 1990 there have only been 18 playoff games that had 19 or fewer combined points too.

12. Alex Smith set the record for the most pass attempts to start a playoff career before throwing an interception.

Then, after breaking Jeff Hostetler’s record of 115, Smith threw a pick four attempts later.

13. Speaking of the Chiefs, they won a playoff game for the first time in 21 years.

The last time Kansas City won a playoff game was Jan. 16, 1994, when some guy named Joe Montana threw three touchdowns en route to a 28-20 win over the Houston Oilers. The next week, the Chiefs would lose to the Buffalo Bills in the AFC championship. In the following years, they’d have seasons of 13-3, 13-3, 13-3, 11-5 10-6 and 10-6 and never get a playoff win, making their drought far more painful than the Bengals, who still have the longest anti-win streak.

14. Marvin Lewis has the worst coaching record in playoff history.

The Bengals’ absurd loss to Pittsburgh made Lewis 0-7 in the postseason, breaking a tie he’d held for one year with Jim Mora. Wait, what’s that Jim Mora? You’re unsure of which record of yours was broken today?
