NFC WILD CARD PLAYOFF: ARIZONA CARDINALS VS. CAROLINA PANTHERS
January 3, 2015  | By David Bianculli

ESPN, 4:30 p.m. ET

 

Postseason in the NFL, and the road to Super Bowl XLIX, begins today with two back-to-back do-or-die games. First up is an NFC contest of two teams that hardly come to the postseason with bragging rights. The Arizona Cardinals lost four of their final six games and limped into the playoffs, while the Carolina Panthers, surging with four victories to end the regular season, comes to the postseason with a losing record: 7-8-1. Yet that was enough, in the NFC South, to take the division, and keep going for at least one more game. This is that game.
