NFL's best weekend at hand

For my money, the best weekend of the NFL calendar is at hand.
It's divisional-playoff weekend, and the chase for the Lombardi Trophy is down to eight teams -- the four top seeds and the quartet of wild-card weekend winners -- who will do battle in two intriguing back-to-back doubleheaders.
Your Denver Broncos, of course, are once again in the divisional-round mix, as they prepare to host the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
Take a minute Broncos Country to re-read that last sentence and rejoice in that simple fact.
The Broncos will be playing in their fifth divisional-round game in the last nine years. And over that last decade, only the New England Patriots (8), Baltimore Ravens (7), Colts (6),  and San Diego Chargers (5) have made as many conference semifinal appearances in the AFC, and just the Seattle Seahawks (7) and Green Bay Packers (5) have as many in the NFC.
The Orange and Blue are 2-2 in those games, beating the Patriots (2005) and Chargers (2013) and losing to the Pats (2011) and Ravens (2012).
Meanwhile, almost half (14) of the other 31 NFL teams haven't experienced a divisional-round win during that span -- from the 2005 postseason on -- and nine of those 14 haven't even made a single Elite Eight appearance.
