The format is as before.  You list the winners only.  1pt for Wild Card games then the points double each round.

To help you, here is the initial bracket with the seeds so no one screws up the next round:

AFC
Kansas City (5) at Indianapolis (4)
San Diego (6) at Cincinnati (3)

NFC
New Orleans (6) at Philadelphia (3)
San Francisco(5) at Green Bay (4)

My picks:

AFC
Kansas City
San Diego

NFC
New Orleans
San Francisco

Yep, I picked all road teams to win. I am just really not that confident in any of the division winners, including my beloved Packers.

In any case:

AFC:
Cincinatti
Indianapolis

NFC:

You guys have more faith in Cincinnati than the fans. I find that amusing.  We still haven't sold out and most people polled on news and radio cite 1) Cost, 2) No need to waste money on a one-and-done team.

I understand their frustration. I feel that with a good QB, they would be the team to beat. There's no reason they shouldn't be an AFC favorite, except for Andy Dalton.

The weather in Green Bay has to make the home team a big favorite, but it could also force a running game which would mean who the hell knows.

Cincinnati has been really really good at home this season. That's why I picked them.

Also, the Chargers only beat the Chiefs' b-team on bad refereeing.

I am betting some fan is going to die of exposure at one of the games this weekend.

And it will probably be some dumbass who dies of exposure tailgating shirtless in Indy  why so serious?

As for my picks:
Green Bay
New Orleans

Kansas City
Cincinnati

I'm surprised at the number of people picking the Packers. It could be argued that the cold weather actually benefits the Niners due to the better defense and a running QB. I'd love to pick them but have to with my head on this one.

AFC:  Indy and Cincy go through. 

NFC:  Philly and GB go through.

These games seem harder to pick than usual, probably because it is really hard to trust the home teams this year.  I am picking GB, simply because I find it hard to believe that Aaron Rodgers is going to let SF kill them yet again.  Time for a bit of payback.

Cincy will win because Dalton seems to play well every other week...and this is the other week.  Would really rather see Rivers go through, but thems the breaks.

Indy will win just to annoy me.  Seriously, go away Indy.

NO will continue it's road woes.  And unruly fan might throw a pack of D batteries at Brees as he comes out the tunnel, concussing him.  I think McCoy is going to run for a mile, which will be enough for Nick Foles to continue to fool America into thinking he is a top-shelf QB.

I think San Francisco is better than the Pack, Rogers or not.  That being said, I feel like the other three games this weekend are a tossup and could go either way.  When I feel that way, I like to pick home teams, which is what I did.  We'll see if it pays off later.

I agree with you, but the better team doesn't always win.  I am thinking that GB will finally find a way to keep Humperdink from running all over them, and then it will be a case of Rodgers out throwing him in the cold weather.  Mostly, it's just football karma - the Pack owes the 49ers some payback.

Or maybe this all all me wanting San Fran to drop out early, because I don't want to see them playing my Seahawks.

Nah.  This might be the only wildcard round I can ever remember where nothing at all would surprise me.  Seems like a crapshoot.
