A few other things to consider:
The two AFC wild card hosts will likely be Cincinnati and Indianapolis. These two teams have played in the the early Saturday slot 4 times in the last 5 years.'
The Eagles or Cowboys will likely host a wild card game unless the Cardinals fall off the cliff (which is possible). Fox will have a hard-on for this game because they get the primetime lead-in on Sunday.
That would possibly leave the Saints in the late Saturday slot. The Sugar Bowl is on Thursday, so they should have enough time to set up before Saturday night. Plus, there is a good chance that they would host an NFC East team or the Seahawks, which would be a big TV draw.
Another variable: If Pittsburgh wins the AFC North, NBC will push hard for that game in the late Saturday slot because the Steelers are a big draw.
