In the first big upset of this tournament, the lowest seeded team in the AFC, the Cincinnati Bengals, top the Tennessee Titans by a touchdown to keep their playoff hopes alive.  Meanwhile, the Titans are to highest seeded team to be bounced from the playoffs – despite a terrific game by Derrick Henry.

The San Francisco 49ers really flexed their muscles in this contest – holding the Panthers to fewer than 200 yards of offense in a rout!  Carolina is still alive, but will advance to the elimination round.  The Niners, meanwhile, will advance into the “Unbeaten” round!

I guess when you turn the ball over EIGHT times in a game, you’re destined to end up on the losing end!  The Washington Redskins are the first team to be eliminated in my tournament after a 33 point loss to the Seahawks.
