I'll start out with Redskins/Saints in the NFC and Bills/Colts in AFC.

The Jets have faced every current AFC team in the playoffs except for the Texans and Ravens.

Nor Seattle while both were in the AFC '77 thru '01.

Almost wrongfully corrected you. Could have sworn at first Saints beat Dallas on way to NFCC in '09, but that was Vikes.


Second half of '60s the Cowboys and Colts never played against each other in the NFL playoffs, not until...

It's amazing all the combinations of teams you can come up with, assuming at first that they never played vs each other in the post-season, and then you're like, "oh yeah, those two did play each other in..."

Falcons never played: Lions, Bears, Rams, Panthers. Correct me if wrong.

Raiders played against everyone in the AFC, past (Oilers in '80, Seahawks in '84) and present (Ravens in '00, Titans in '03) except for Jags and Texans whom, all due respect being they've only been around since '02 and just started becoming a playoff team, we should leave out of this.

When the Seahawks were in the AFC, they made just five playoff appearances in 25 years and faced just five different opponents (Broncos, Dolphins, Raiders, Oilers and Bengals). They have since also faced the Steelers and Patriots in the SB. Since moving to the NFC they have faced off against every other conference member in postseason play except for the Eagles, Lions, Buccaneers, Giants and Cardinals.

Since their 1st meeting in 1920, the Bears and Cardinals have never met in the postseason.
