NFL playoffs recap

Notable performance

Ray Rice, Ravens

Though the Patriots hadn't lost a home playoff game in decades, the Ravens stunned New England as Rice had 22 carries for 159 yards and two touchdowns, including an 83-yard scamper on the opening offensive play of the game to get the blowout started Sunday morning.

Quote of the week

Ken Whisenhunt, Cardinals coach

"Destiny smiled on us this time. That's probably one of the best games ever played in the playoffs."

Notable performance

Aaron Rodgers, Packers

A magnificent game for the Green Bay quarterback saw him complete 28 of 42 passes for a Packers postseason-record 422 yards and four TDs. But that fumble in overtime will haunt him for a while.
