How playoff matchups are set
Seven teams from each conference qualify. The No. 1 seed in the AFC and NFC skips Wild Card Weekend and joins the winners in the Divisional Round. Later matchups depend on the results: each conference’s top seed hosts the lowest remaining seed in the Divisional Round.
The AFC and NFC champions meet at the Super Bowl’s neutral venue. We add actual opponents as they are confirmed, so this page does not assume a fixed bracket.
