With the Jets’ win over the Bengals Sunday night, New York captured the AFC’s five-seed. Meanwhile, Cincy dropped a spot and is now the four-seed;, New England will start the playoffs as the three-seed in the AFC. New York’s win also means that for the first time ever, the NFL’s Wild-Card Round will feature three rematches from Week 17: Jets-Bengals, Packers-Cardinals and Eagles-Cowboys. Familiarity breeds contempt ...
