Who stood out and who caught the eye in the Wild Card Weekend of the 2024/25 NFL season? Tony "Moley" Adams picks out his top five performers from the opening week of the NFL Playoffs.

1. Josh Allen (Bills)


The classy quarterback steered the ship in fine style as the Bills thumped the Broncos 31-7. Allen completed 20 of 26 pass attempts for 272 yards and two touchdowns.

2. Dyami Brown (Commanders)


The Commanders scraped to a 23-20 overtime win over the Bucs in a major upset, much due to Brown’s brilliant running as a wide receiver. He cut the Bucs up out wide with 89 yards and a touchdown at a vital time in the game.

3. Derrick Henry (Ravens)


The Ravens’ running back demolished the Steelers, leading his team to a 28-14 win. Henry had 26 carries for 186 yards and two touchdowns in his best game of the year.

4. C J Stroud (Texans)


The Texans’ general pulled all the right strings to mastermind his team’s 32-12 defeat of the Chargers. Stround completed 22 of 32 passes for a mammoth 282 yards and one touchdown.

5. Jahmyr Gibbs (Lions)


The Lions’ running back had a night to remember as his team smashed the Vikings 31-9. Gibbs bagged three touchdowns and ran for 139 yards against the ragged Vikings defence.
