Fun with NFL Playoff Machine

I was playing around with NFL Playoff Machine to see if some dream scenarios were possible. I actually managed to get all the most interesting AFC Wildcard games to work.

AFC Wilcard

1 seed - Chiefs
2 Bengals vs 7 Chargers (battle between Burrow and Herbert)
3 Titans vs 6 Colts (battle between Henry and Taylor)
4 Bills vs 5 Patriots (battle between AFC East rivals)

I don't really care who comes out of the AFC, but if the Cowboys don't make it out of the NFC, I have to admit a Bucs vs Pats Super Bowl would be pretty epic.

The NFC Wildcard round is far less interesting with teams like the Eagles, Saints and 49ers fighting for the final spots. The NFC is more top heavy. I think the later rounds will be more interesting. The AFC has room for a more interesting wildcard round.

I could see any of the 7 teams in the AFC going to the SB (assuming the Raiders/Steelers/Ravens don't make it). The only WC team in the NFC I could see making it is Arizona.
