Four - two from each conference.
a wild card team is the 2 teams that are below the top 4 best teams. they do not have a grantee positions in the playoffs tho. so when a team is a wild card there stats for wins and loses are lower then the top four but higher then the rest of the teams.
Two wild card teams make the playoffs in each conference making a total of four.
The Pittsburgh Steelers did in 2005.
there are 12 spots in total 8 are for the division winners 4 are for the wild card spots
This is best answered in opposition to your question i.e. How do teams qualify for the playoffs? The 8 division winners and 2 wild card teams from each conference. Wild card teams are determined by the best overall winning percentage from the remaining (non division winning) teams.

2. The Steelers in 1979 SuperBowl vs Dallas and Carolina in 2003 Wild Card game against Dallas.
There are two wild card teams for each confernce and the lowest seed plays the 3rd seed and the second lowest seed plays the fourth seed. so the answer is 4.
Yes. If both wild card teams win the wild card and divisional round, then then number 5 seed will host the number 6 seed in the championship round. In that case, a wild card team will host a playoff game. This has never occured in NFL history due to the fact that many situations must coincide for it to happen.
For this year it was the New York Giant, Falcons,Saints,Lions,Broncos,Steelers,Texans,Bengals
