Second Round Scenarios

PrintI know plenty of you are already aware of this, but for anybody who isn't let's take a look at how the potential second round opponent will be determined.
In the NFL, each conference reseeds after the opening round. That means the highest remaining seed in each conference plays the lowest remaining seed. The second and third highest remaining seeds play each other.
The Jets are the 5 seed in the AFC. Should they win, their opponent will be determined by the Baltimore-New England game on Sunday.
If Baltimore wins: The Jets will travel to take on number 2 seed San Diego. Baltimore, the lowest remaining team, with the 6 seed would play the top seeded Colts.
If New England wins: The Jets will be the lowest remaining seed at 5 and head back to Indianapolis to play the Colts for the second time in four weeks. Number 3 New England would play at number 2 San Diego.

I'm with Baltimore
It’d be great for the Jets to be the last remaining AFC east team and I’d rather play San Diego then go to Indy again where they are already pissed off. Plus it might just lead to a Baltimore-NYJ AFC Championship back at the Meadowlands. Wouldn’t that be awesome?

I’d rather play the Colts, The Chargers are on fire in the 2nd half of the season and tend to pick it up a level for the playoffs. Plus at least Manning already has his ring, Rivers is still playing for one.
"So basically, the Stats make no sense whatsoever."
Lets get out of round one first.
Though i think we win, its by no means a gimme. If i were a browing Bengals fan i’d be mighty pissed about being considered a forgone conclusion.

Here’s a scenario – jets and their fans watch the second round on TV.
