Hognostication Playoffs - Wild Card Round

by Deadskins
Seems we only have 10 contestants in this year's Hognostications, so to match up to the NFL playoffs (and have 4 contestants in each conference after this weekend), we will have 3 byes from each conference. This seems to be the fairest way to proceed. Anyhoo, here are the seedings for this season's tournament.
HHC (Hogs Hognostication Conference)
1. TeeterSalad
2. Deadskins
3. DesertSkin
4. REDEEMEDSKIN
5. SkinsJock
DHC (Dirtbags Hognostication Conference)
1. Mursilis
2. KazooSkinsFan
3. Hoss
4. jeremyroyce
5. tribeofjudah
Which means that this weekend we have:
SkinsJock @ REDEEMEDSKIN
and
tribeofjudah @ jeremyroyce
The home team gets the advantage of picking second, so SkinsJock and tribeofjudah need to get their picks in no later than Friday at noon EST. You need to pick the winners from each game, and the total points for the weekend.
Here are the games:
AFC
Sat., Jan. 9, 4:30 p.m. ET NBC
N.Y. Jets @ Cincinnati
Sun., Jan. 10, 1:00 p.m. ET CBS
Baltimore @ New England
NFC
Sat., Jan. 9, 8:00 p.m. ET NBC
Philadelphia @ Dallas
Sun., Jan 10, 4:40 p.m. ET FOX
Green Bay @ Arizona
Good luck to all, and happy hognosticating.

well it looks like tribe has given jeremy a free ride to the next round or did I miss something here?
I guess TRO and I have slightly different ideas ....

hognosticators with a bye week can "play" .... if they want to, I think

It's a real barn burner at the half-way point.

my congratulations to TRO - 2-2, but convincing with the tie breaker
I'm sure that TRO will understand that there is no way I can root for a hognostitraitor - so .... I will be rooting for anyone else but TRO

Yeah right.... OK.
I picked to WIN, all the losers of last week: Bengals, Cardinals, Eagles. So I got 1 of 3 there.
I also wanted Ray Rice to move on so I'm 1 for 1
2 out of 4 .......... 50%

Ravens (Ray Rice fan)
Vikings (Hate Dallas)
Cardinals (tough one but I'm a Kurt Warner fan)

I'll be picking too but in both our cases it's a "losers bracket" - anyone can make their choices known, there are only 8 that really count however
I'm not complaining, but, in my opinion, one of the refs really blew 2 personal foul calls against the Cardinals during that last series - we'll see if the NFL lets whomever was responsible be in a game the rest of the playoffs. IF they do, then obviously I did not see what I thought I saw
that being said, the Cardinals deserved to win and it would have been wrong if the Packers had managed to pull a win out after that incredibly bad show by their defense
