Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks claim top spots of the AFC and NFC and will avoid the wild car round.<\/b>
\nNFL regular season has ended, with the Pittsburgh Steelers clinching the fourth seed in the AFC play-offs with a touchdown in the last minute against Baltimore Ravens, to earn a place for the wild card round that takes place this week, from January 10 to January 13.
As a domino effect, the Carolina Panthers clinched the final NFC play-off spot without even playing on Sunday, ending what many experts think was one of the most unpredictable NFL seasons in years.
The road to the Super Bowl is now set, with the top seeds of the two confederations (Denver Broncos in the AFC and the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC) qualifying for the Divisional rounds, while the other 12 teams, six from each division, will meet in the Wild Card round:
