Wild Card winners all had a QB with playoff experience, and won on the road
Today the Green Bay Packers and the Seattle Seahawks were able to go on the road and pull off a win. According to ESPN Stats and Info on Twitter, it is the first time since 1990 that all four wild card games were won on the road.
Since current playoff format was established (1990), road teams had NEVER won the 4 Wild Card games… Until now.

Another interesting fact, is the winners from this weekend all had an experienced quarterback in the playoffs. Big Ben, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson and Alex Smith have all played in a playoff game, while Teddy Bridgewater, A.J. McCarron, Kirk Cousins and Brian Hoyer have all never started a playoff game. Pretty interesting but that is why it is important to have a good quarterback.
