You may be feeling pretty down about it being Monday and all, but it's important to keep things in perspective.

Unle s of course you're a Steelers fan ... in which case, I don't think I'm gonna be able to help you feel better this morning. Sorry .On the bright side, Cordarrelle Patterson Jersey we don't have to say goodbye to football just yet because we've got another big game to watch/bet on tonight.

Hopefully we can get your week started right. What you need to know 1. What's in store for the NFL's Divisional Round As you've likely figured out by now, the freakin' Cleveland Browns have won a playoff game! The last time that happened the year was 1994, Bill Belichick was Cleveland's coach and Nick Saban was his defensive coordinator. A LOT has changed since then. And while the Browns and their fans are likely still soaking up the glory of that long-awaited playoff victory, we're gonna go ahead and look ahead already.

This one could be a to s-up, and it should be one heck of a gamePackers (1) vs. Rams (6): is still on the mend from thumb surgery but his Rams are moving on thanks to a stunning win over the this past weekend. and the Packers are waiting and they should be pretty big favoritesSaints (2) vs. Buccaneers (5): Ah, Brady vs. Brees for a third time -- that's going to be a storylines feast, and it should be a pretty good game too. has won five straight against Tampa Bay and has outscored Brady's squad 72-26 this year, so the Saints are probably going to be favored hereYou know what we can't look forward to next weekend? An NFL game on Nickelodeon, and that's a huge bummer considering . "SpongeBob SportsPants" intro song Slime cannons Terrible Cardi B impre sions Incredibly weird graphics Honestly, the jokes and memes on Twitter during the Nickelodeon broadcast Mike Singletary Jersey made the entire experience so much better, and I was left craving more Nickelodeon during the Browns-Steelers nightcap. Should we always just have an incredibly bizarre secondary feed just for the sake of the memes? I think so. It's not too late, NFL.In all seriousne s, it was pretty neat to see the Nickelodeon broadcast geared toward being more entertaining, engaging and informative for a younger audience. I would have eaten that up as a kid. Heck, I clearly ate it up even as an adult with no kids. I'm starting to think I still have the brain of an 8 year old.2. Alabama vs. Ohio State predictions from our experts Happy CFP National Championship day!

It's vs. in the finale to close out one of the weirdest and most unprecedented college football seasons in history, so who's gonna win?

My guy Chip has Adam Shaheen Jersey laid out , while Mr. Dodd has put together .Honestly, at this rate I don't really care who wins, I'm just rooting for the best game po sible. This bowl season has been largely underwhelming due to opt-outs, blowouts and cancellations. If we can end things on a high note, it might be easier to look back on this season with positivity despite all the weirdne s. 3. The Ravens and Titans don't like each other Yesterday's Ravens-Titans game was one of the better games of the week, and it also happened to be the one that birthed the most hot takes. That's thanks to an ending that featured the Ravens dancing/stomping on the Titans' logo at midfield after an interception e sentially sealed the win for Baltimore late in the fourth quarter. Then, Lamar Jackson and a bunch of his teammates raced to the locker room ahead of the final whistle, refusing to shake hands with 's players after the game.Of course, this pettine s didn't come out of no where -- the Titans ticked off Baltimore in Week 11 when they congregated on the Ravens logo and got into a verbal spat with the opposing side. Still, the Ravens' revenge seemed to tick a lot of people off yesterday butHere's what some players had to say:QB Lamar Jackson:DE Derek Wolfe:DT Calais Campbell:I'm a David Montgomery Jersey sucker for drama and theater so, personally, I had absolutely no problem with seeing Baltimore stomp their way acro s midfield. If you don't want your logo stomped on, don't put it on the ground. If you don't want opponents taunting you, don't let them beat you. Keep the hate in sports. The next Ravens-Titans game just got a bit more interesting, didn't it?4.
