NFL wild card recap, plus dissecting the Cowboys' inexplicable last play and making picks for Cardinals-Rams

Here's everything you need to know about the NFL for Jan. 17

Welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! Every Sunday night, I get an email from our research department here at CBS Sports, and every Sunday, that email always includes some amazingly wild facts about the games that were just played. 

It has been nearly 24 hours since the Cowboys lost to the 49ers and I still have no idea what they were thinking on their final play. It's fitting that the game was on Nickelodeon, because the only way to explain that play call is that the Cowboys let kids across the country vote on which play they should call. Next year, the Cowboys should definitely be in the Nickelodeon game again, except this time, they should let SpongeBob SquarePants coach the team because there's no way he could do any worse than what Mike McCarthy did against the 49ers.  With that in mind, here are 11 crazy facts about Super Wild Card Weekend 

We'll be dissecting the entire play in today's newsletter, plus we'll be recapping every game from the weekend and previewing Cardinals-Rams, so let's get to the rundown.
