Trying to cite the playoff schedule before the last weekend of games even begin

Here we go again. See the examples I cited last season on Talk:2020–21 NFL playoffs#Trying to cite the playoff schedule before the last weekend of games even begin. Until the league officially announces them, network assignments should not be listed, and any such sources such as the Futon Critic that do not reference back to a league source should be considered unreliable.

Here is what we can do about this we can still put the possible networks on there but I thought we could still guess based on sources and try to put the networks in the right places but just as long as it ends up back to the league Hoopstercat (talk) 17:40, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Now look how wrong Futon Critic was. Compare the version back on December 31 that I reverted to the actual schedule just announced by the league. Zzyzx11 (talk) 05:41, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Factual information

Should we add that both #1 seeds lost on the same day? This has never happened before in the playoffs I believe. Mastergerwe97 (talk) 04:15, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Does it matter that it was on the same day? Can someone check if it happened in the same round before? The fact that the games involving the two #1 seeds were scheduled for the same day seems irrelevant to me. – Pee Jay 22:43, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it last happened in 2010 with the Patriots and the Falcons both losing in the divisional round, but it wasn’t on the same day though. Mastergerwe97 (talk) 00:13, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
