    The NFL brackets are confusing?

    I am not much of a fan of pro sports, so you can probably see why this bracket below leaves me to wonder, "just who do these individual winners meet if they win, all the way to the SUPER BOWL?"
    Say, if Seattle wins, who's next and going forward to the next game of they win two in a row?

    Re-seed after every round

    If Seattle wins, they play Atlanta next

    If Seattle wins again there's only 1 team left to play

    If Seattle beats Detroit by 30+ points, then they go directly into the NFC final and Atlanta is eliminated.

    They do NOT reseed. 1-6 stays the same. Higher seed is always home team. Pretty damn simple.

    Yep it's gonna be #3 Seattle at #2 Atlanta and #4GB or #5NYG at #1 Dallas. If Detroit beats Seattle somehow than they as the #6 would go to #1 Dallas and the #4GB or #5NYG would play at #2 Atlanta.

    Lowest remaining seed always plays highest remaining. Hope they never change that like the way they fukked up the NHL playoffs...

    Yeah bad wording by me.

    Meant that they redo matchups based on seeding

    Nice try, DS, now I'm really confused. This could happen?
    * And the tip about betting the NFL? I'm still looking for a crack in the hardened concrete of "any sport gambling?"
    PS: Never listen to JJ's advice, well, unless it's advice about the gloryhole.
