NFC

New Oreleans and Minnesota have 1st round byes

Dallas (3) will host Philadelphia (6)

Arizona (4) will host Green Bay (5)

New Orleans will host the lowest seed who advances
Minnesota will host the highest seed who advances

AFC

Indianapolis and San Diego have 1st round byes

Seeding is still up in the air, but Baltimore will play New England in the wildcard round.

Indianapolis will host the lowest seed who advances
San Diego will host the highest seed who advances

If Cincinnati wins tonight, they will be the #3 seed and host Houston who would be the 6th seed.

If New York wins tonight, they will be the #5 seed and travel to Cincinnati who would be the 4th seed.

If Cincinnati wins, Baltimore will be the #5 seed and New England #4.
If New York wins, New England will be the #3 seed and Baltimore #6.

If things fall right, you are looking at a Green Bay-Minnesota NFC Championship Game which would be a great game to see.

And in the AFC if things fall right, you are looking at a San Diego-Indianapolis Championship Game.

Looking at things early before seeding is all the way set, I am predicting a Minnesota-San Diego Super Bowl.

Roger Goodell has a wet dream at night thinking about the kind of ratings a Favre Bowl III as the NFC Title game with the winner going to the Super Bowl would be.

Favre himself probably has both dreams and nightmares about the same thing because losing that game would potentially haunt him forever while winning it would be the biggest FU he could ever give to Ted Thompson.

Looks like next weekend will have three rematches from Week 17. Should add an interesting spin to everything.

AFC Wild Card Round

New York Jets 24 - Cincinnati 17

NFC Wild Card Round

Dallas 20 - Philadelphia 14
Green Bay 28 - Arizona 14

All of that sets up this:

Baltimore over New England

Green Bay over Arizona

Philly over Dallas

Jets and Bengals is a rough one. I'd go with Cincy just because they probably threw the game tonight. They will play better at home next week.

bigdaddy going against big D?

All I care about is Dallas getting their first playoff win in a century and winning their third against Philly this season.

Possible but it's pretty hard to beat a team 3 times.
