These playoffs have no pizazz?

How is football ever boring? I love football, and although I do agree there hasn't really been much excitement as there has been in the past regarding the playoffs, this year has been unique within its own. How about the game winning TD run by Marshawn Lynch? How about the Jets beating the heavily favored Patriots last week? Did you forget about how the Packers looked once again dominant against the Falcons (a team everyone thought would make the super bowl)? I think the key here is to see that there are differences in each season. This year has had its moments both in the regular season and playoffs. For me, this year's playoffs has been special because the Packers (from what it looks like today) will be in the super bowl after having 15 players on IR. That is 15 players who were injured. The Packers have done a remarkable thing by playing at a high level despite having so many injuries. In the AFC the Jets are poised to come into Pittsburgh and potentially beat the Steelers. I don't really like the Jets as a team (because of the players pride) but they are right now on the cusp of greatness in such a short time. So for me, there is "pizzazz" as you say. I think we as fans have to realize every season is different. No one season is the same.
