NFL wildcard weekend predictions: which No 3 seed is heading out?

There are plenty of intriguing match-ups as the playoffs kick-off. Who will survive and book a spot in the NFL's last eight?

It will not be business as usual in the NFL playoffs this weekend. Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin's on-field cardiac arrest earlier this month will haunt proceedings, despite his near-miraculous recovery. How could it not? If there's one thing we should take away from the last few weeks, it's that the league is populated by human beings, not abstract figures on stats sheets. The playoffs will continue as scheduled but expect the atmosphere to be more subdued than in years past. And let's hope that the drama remains entirely football-related.
