Some thoughts on the weekend games using the classic movie reference.
The Good: The Saints/ Panthers, round 3. Not a perfect game but entertaining and came right down to the wire. Hard fought between 2 division rivals with plenty of scoring but also some really good defense at times.

The Bad: Bills/Jags. We've all seen some terrible games over the years but this might have been the worst QB play we have ever seen from 2 play-off teams. The only bright spot on offense was the heart of Shady McCoy balling on one leg.
A close second to that game was the Chiefs second half play. 56 total yds on offense when they had the game right where they wanted is pathetic. Kudos to the Titans but the Chiefs really gave it away big time, imo.
Both of these games were just bad football.

The Ugly: The LA Coliseum turf. Watching those guys slip and slide on that field almost ruined what was a really good match-up and game. Blake Bortles throwing short passes is ugly as well.

Staying with that theme.

Good...ATL vs LAR and CAR vs NO...both were good games...the 5 & 6 seeds put up good showings.

Bad...BUF @ JAX...you said it, Shady's effort was the only thing worth watching.

Ugly...The Falcons in the SB was bigger because it was the SB. The Falcon lost to SF in the NFCCG was the worst loss I had seen prior to that...this was worst than that, because of the opponent. The Titans...a team that under performed to the degree they were likely going to fire their HC if they loss that game....leading 21-3 on your home field and basically get punked by a RB.

It was kind of ugly seeing Kelce get smacked. Especially since it neutered KC who forgot they had Hunt.....

The good: we're on a crash course for Pats/Steelers in the AFC which I'm sure is what the casual fan wants
The bad: Bills/Jags was a playoff game
The Ugly: Everything about the Chiefs in the 2nd half. Both the dumb stuff and the unlucky stuff.
