But they had the best turnover margin in the playoffs before tonight's game.

From one of my previous posts about turnover margin:

I did a little research to show how important turnovers are to winning. 8 of the top 10 teams in turnover ratio made the playoffs. The top 5 teams in TR had a combined regular season record of 59-21 while the bottom 5 had a combined record of 29-51.

In the NFC, 6 teams had a regular season record of 9-7 or better. Those teams had a combined TR of +20. The 10 teams that had 8-8 records or worse had a combined TR of -42.

In the AFC, 7 teams had a regular season record of 9-7 or better. Those teams had a combined TR of +67. The 9 teams that had 8-8 records or worse had a combined TR of -59.
