Right now the Wild Card Games would be
Bears at Saints
Lions at Giants

Good chance the divisional round would be a third game with a divisional opponent.

1.5. The goal is home field advantage. We should be severely disappointed with anything less.

Some trivia questions for some of you that follow this thread:

1) What 3 teams have been in playoff position all 7 weeks?
(Hint: 2 NFC, 1 AFC)

2) Which team appeared in playoff position for the first time this week?

3) Which NFC teams made the playoffs last year and have not been in playoff position yet this season?

So whom do we have left?

@Chargers - tough game considering our d hasnt stopped many points ... I still dont get why bernett is playing with a broken hand; he wont be getting many interceptions with that hand ...
IMO I see us winning but will be a close one

Vikings - another win; its at home and its the queens

Buccaneers - we win this one

@Lions - my friend back home says we usually lose thanksgiving game vs the lions ... hmmm Id rather not but should be a good game

@Giants - another tough one

Raiders - least we got the raiders at home

@Chiefs - gimnmie game

Bears - I knew I needed something else to do for christmas (all my cousins are bears fans and should be a good game to watch at their house).

Lions - who knows but I say we win

needless to say Im glad we have a lead in our division ... not many gimmie games ... lions on thanksgiving, charges and giants should be fun

True, although it is a rare Super Bowl that features both Number 1 seeds. I did the math last year (I'd have to dig up the thread). If I remember correctly, only 13% of Super Bowls have featured two Number 1 seeds. I created that thread to point out that even though they were a Number 6, there was still hope for the Packers, since there was an 87% chance that both Number 1 seeds wouldn't make it past the second weekend.

Granted it's been more common as of late for lower seeds to make it. Being a number 1 seed is still a huge advantage. For the record, each of the four seasons in which a number 1 did not make it, a number 2 did.

There is a syntactical ambiguity to my statement, which could be interpreted as saying that it was likely that neither Number 1 seed would make it to the Super Bowl. What I meant to say is that there was an 87 percent chance that the Super Bowl would feature either one or no Number 1 seed. In other words, there was only a 13 percent chance that both top seeds would be in the Super Bowl.

It is very common that a Super Bowl features a Number 1 seed. It is quite rare that it features both Number 1 seeds. That pattern held true this year as well.
