Cowboys vs. Packers.. Again



Remember when Dez Bryant caught it, but didn't?

He will have a chance to redeem himself this upcoming weekend as the Dallas Cowboys take on the Green Bay Packers. This game will make it the first playoff game between the Cowboys and Packers since January 2015, when Green Bay beat the Cowboys 26-21.

Of course, "the catch" controversy involving Dez Bryant is the most memorable moment from that game and will probably be revisited a few times this week leading up to the big game.

On the other hand, in the other NFC game, the Seahawks and Falcons will match-up in Atlanta in a rematch following a controversial game as well in Week 5 where the Seahawks won it 26-24.

In that game, the Falcons left Seattle unhappy after a no-call on a possible pass interference against Julio Jones in the fourth quarter. The Seahawks-Falcons game is also a rematch of a wild playoff game from January 2013.

In that game, the Falcons blew a 27-7 lead in the fourth quarter, letting the Seahawks get a 28-27 lead with just 31 seconds left. However, Atlanta ended up winning 30-27 after Matt Ryan put them in field goal range for a game-winning 49-yard field goal.

In the AFC, we'll also be getting two rematches. The Steelers will be visiting Kansas City, where they hope things go a lot similar to how they did during the regular season.

Back in Week 4, the Steelers beat the Chiefs 43-14.

In the other AFC game, we'll be getting a rematch of a regular-season blowout. In Week 3, the Patriots beat the Texans 27-0 (without Tom Brady). With Brady now playing, the chances seem even greater to repeat history for the Patriots. Houston's a huge underdog coming into this game, to say the least.

Overall, all four games come with crazy history. I have a feeling this upcoming weekend will be no different.

Instagram's Newest Feature That You Can't Find Anywhere Else

Snapchat started the trend of story-telling, creating 24-hour snaps that you share to the world. Instagram now has this feature as well. Well, Instagram has changed the game again. This time, you can post multiple photos within a single feed post. As in, you swipe right and see multiple pictures all under one post. Sure, Twitter and Facebook have similar features where you can post multiple pictures at once, but not quite like this. Instagram, unlike Facebook, Twitter, and so on, is a photo-based social media platform. Before, only advertisers could do such a thing on Instagram, leaving the rest of us to pick only the best picture (or two at the most) to represent our big event, birthday or holiday to keep from spamming (and annoying) our follower’s feeds. To use the feature, you need to tap the ‘Select Multiple’ option first on the bottom of the photo or video you want to upload. From there, you can select the content you want to include; they’ll be numbered in the order th...
