Buffalo/Detroit would be a good one. My #2 is LAC/Detroit.
#3 Buffalo/Minnesota
#4 Houston/Detroit
#5 Houston/Minnesota
Buffalo - Minnesota would have a fun narrative
Combined 0-8 in SB appearances.
Moveable force vs .the Stoppable object historically lol
I always hope for matchups with teams that have never been there or won it.
Detroit vs Buffalo would be my #1 but I’d love Detroit vs anyone.
After Detroit, I’m pulling for Minnesota so Minnesota vs Buffalo would be awesome.
SSH vs 49ers. We are dreaming, right?
Baltimore Ravens
Philadelphia Eagles
Love the Chargers, Texas and Commanders’ story, but alas they all seem to be just missing something.
I’m going with #1 - Buff/Det
Both have 1st rd byes (well earned) home field advantage up until the SB.
I can tell you who it won’t be. Minnesota will be one and done this weekend in Arizona. They pulled a massive choke job in Detroit last week despite out-playing the mighty Lions (for the most part). Just couldn’t put it in the endzone. Darnold will have another below average outing, leading to a panicked Vikings management either trading him or releasing him from his contract. Vikes need to get a shut-down OT or OG in the draft. Their current deadbeats aren’t even giving Darnold 1.5 seconds before he’s done like dinner. Drafting around 25 won’t get you a shutdown OL, might get you a developmental QB or a well-scouted DB, RB or LB.
add that KC w/ Kelce, Mahomes & Ms. Swift in tow will fight valiantly but prolly die on their own hill in the semi-finals.
A few boo boos here on your part Lyle . Number # 1 you stated that both Detroit and Buffalo both have first round byes , in reality only the Lions have the bye . The Bills will be taking on the Broncos in round one this Sunday afternoon .
Second boo boo would be stating that Minnesota will be one and done this weekend in Arizona . Well the one and done part may very well come true it won’t be in Arizona but in fact L.A. against the Rams .
Actually upon further inspection it would appear that the Arizona statement has turned out to true . The Minny/LA game has indeed been moved to Arizona this weekend due to the wildfires sweeping Southern California .

New York Giants vs Pittsburgh Steelers
well, at least you didnt say Dallas
One Championship Game that was enjoyable to watch was Super Bowl XV back in 1981, QB Jim Plunkett played unreal.
Philadelphia Eagles 10
Oakland Raiders 27

Bleccch!
As much as I love baseball the game, it is the most broken major league sport in North America and I can no longer get excited about it.
MLB stands for Merry LA Dodgers Buy another championship.
I would rather watch NFL pre season than the World Series in today’s uncompetitive mess of a league and I hate pre season anything and love baseball.
They seem to have taken that spot away from the NY Yankees.
I agree regarding the Dodgers spending insane amount of money.
I hear you, and totally agree about the Dodgers buying another championship. The system is broken.
But I’d rather watch a baseball game than the overhyped NFL championship.
You know my love of baseball, but what we see today with only a handful of teams ever being competetive is a farce. The game no longer has integrity and it won’t interest me until it does. At least football has integrity.
