a bracket is set up by looking at every teams record and seeding them. there r 2 conferences the AFC and NFC.6 teams in each conference go to the playoffs. the division winners automatically make it to the playoffs. then they look at the records of the teams that didn't win their division and select the best 2 teams out of those to play the 3 and 4 seed in the first round which is called the wildcard round.the 1 and 2 seeds get to skip that round.if a team loses in the playoffs once,they're out.the second round is called the divisional round.the 1 seed would play the winner of the 4 seed and wildcard team game since that team earned it.however, if the winner of the wildcard game between the 4 seed and wildcard team is in the same division as the 1 seed they will play the 2 seed instead, forcing the 1 seed to play the winner of game between the 3 seed and wildcard team.the 3rd round is called the AFC/NFC championship. the winners of the conference championships will play each other in the superbowl,and thus we will have our winner. the playoffs are designed to see whos the best of the best.
