1. I think both teams have so many flaws that a blowout will be hard to achieve.

2. Democrats, mostly because Trump is on the Republicans. 

3. I'm going to say Teddy Roosevelt is the difference maker. 

4. I haven't time to make the teams, but I'd certainly would want to make adjustments after someone else makes them.

Yeah, packing Ford, Reagan, Nixon, and Teddy on the same team is WAY to OP. LBJ and Obama would be carrying the Democrat team. 

This would change though if it were a basketball match. Dems might have the advantage simply because of Obama on that one.

Gerald Ford is OP. Not to mention Teddy and Gerry on one team? With QB Ronnie? Game set match.

I think Democrats have a better offensive line. I think FDR has more upper body strength than Reagan, which means he can throw deeper if he can wheel-away from rushers. 

GOP does have a better defense, RB, and TE. 

Democrats have better WRs, which makes the QB likely better too, and as I said, better OL. Reagan is going to face more pressure and has weaker WRs. He'd have to look for Lincoln constantly or throw a short pass to TR to bail him out.
