 So in Wildcard weekend I got 4 correct and 2 incorrect.  And this weekend, we move on to the Divionsal Playoffs.

But before we get there, just a couple comments.

The team I detest the most, hate the most, want never to succeed again is the team in Washington, whatever racist or stupid name they are known by.  I've hated Washington for at least 45 years, and that's not going to change.  

The team I hate the most next is the San Francisico 49ers. I've have loathed them for 45 years as well.  However, we play Washington 2x a year and San Fran sometimes not at all in a season.  So that's why Washington rates higher.  The Niners did managed to beat the Eagles last week, and move onto Seattle.  The Niners need to get their asses kicked right out of the playoffs this coming weekend, they are still too close to the Super Bowl for comfort. 

Next, I hate two teams pretty much the same: The Grean Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers.  And they both lost this past weekend, both in an embarrassing fashion, so that was quite satisfying.

And the last team I really dislike is the Philadelphia Eagles.  Not with a passion or anything, just don't have anything good to say about them.  And they lost Sunday, so they're out of the Super Bowl for this year.   

All the other teams, I either like, and okay with, apathetic towards or just mildly dislike them.  The Rams and the Broncos fall into the latter category.  I don't want either of them in the Super Bowl, but if they make it there, meh, whatever.

So of the remaining teams my favorability towards the teams (and thus desire to see them in the Super Bowl) rate as follows. 

In the NFC, 

1. Seattle Seahawks
2. Chicago Bears
3. LA Rams
4.  San Francisco 49ers

In the AFC: 

1.Houston Texans
2. Buffalo Bills
3. New England Patriots
4. Denver Broncos. 

So we'll see how well I fare. 

I'd do a separate post on the predictions shortly.
