7 of 8 NFL playoff teams are from blue states

[AZJonnie]

3. This week is the 2nd round of the playoffs though

Counting blue vs. red by means of 2024 POTUS election results:

Blue‑state teams (13):
Bills (NY)
Giants (NJ)
Jets (NJ)
Patriots (MA)
Ravens (MD)
Commanders (DC)
Bears (IL)
Vikings (MN)
Broncos (CO)
Seahawks (WA)
49ers (CA)
Rams (CA)
Chargers (CA)

Red‑state teams (19):
Cardinals (AZ)
Falcons (GA)
Panthers (NC)
Saints (LA)
Cowboys (TX)
Texans (TX)
Jaguars (FL)
Dolphins (FL)
Buccaneers (FL)
Colts (IN)
Titans (TN)
Chiefs (MO)
Raiders (NV)
Lions (MI)
Packers (WI)
Steelers (PA)
Eagles (PA)
Browns (OH)
Bengals (OH)

Assuming each playoff team is like a random draw from the league with a 13/32 chance of being from a blue state, the chance that 7 or 8 of 8 remaining teams are blue‑state teams is about 0.94% (~1 in 106) in a given year.

IOW, this has about a once-per-century statistical likelihood, if the teams and their states voting patterns had 100% consistency over that 100 years.

Sounds like an omen to me!
