Nothing terribly surprising about the wild card round, aside from Seattle playing way better than they have done so far this season. I still think they're overmatched vs. Green Bay, and the crowd there is not likely to be receptive to Mike Holmgren's presence there.
One notable thing is that the top 7 teams in the ratings are also in the playoffs right now too -- that gives me a nice warm fuzzy that the system's ratings are working properly. Anyway, on to the divisional playoff round.
