The top 2 teams (not division winners) travel to the 2 division winners who did not earn the 1st round bye.

Well, the NFL is split into 2 divisions-the NFC and the AFC. The best teams from the NFC and AFC go into the playoffs (based on the records. the records are like 4-10 or 8-6). The next 2 best teams are the wild card for that division.
Fun Fact: The Titans need to win this game and for the Browns to lose so they can get the wild card spot, because they would have a better record.

In the NFL, each of the two conferences send two wild-card teams along with four division champions to its postseason.
The four division champions are seeded from #1 through #4, while the two wild card teams are seeded #5 and #6; within these separations, seeding is by regular-season record. In the "Wild Card Round", the #6 team (a wild card team) plays against the #3 team (a division champion) and the #5 team (a wild card team) plays against the #4 team (a division champion). The division champions have automatic home-field advantage in these games. In the "Divisional Round", the worst seeded remaining team plays the #1 seeded team, while the best seeded remaining team that played in the wildcard round play the #2 seed. Both the #1 seed and #2 seed have home-field advantage in the divisional round. See NFL playoffs.

There are 4 divisions in each of the two conferences, the AFC and NFC. A total of 12 teams make the playoffs ( 6 from each conference). The winner of the 4 divisions automatically get spots 1-4. The rest of the teams fight for the final 2 wildcard spots. The 2 teams with the best records that arent division winners get the wildcard spots.

AFC has 4 division. Same with NFC. The top teams of each go to the playoffs. The next 2 teams from each division with the best tiebreakers and records end up going too. That is wildcard :)

the qualification goes like this:6 teams qualify from each qualifies. 2 best records get a first round bye and havehomefield advantage.
the other 2 have to be the division champs (as well as the first 2).
THEN the remaining 12 fight for the wilod card (the best records get it)

New England won't be in it, in case you're trying to bash them.
