Twelve teams found out what their respective roads to the Super Bowl will look like after the conclusion of Sunday’s games.
The New England Patriots earned the No. 1 seed in the AFC, while the Pittsburgh Steelers managed to lock up the No. 2 seed.
On the NFC side, the Philadelphia Eagles earned the No. 1 seed and the Minnesota Vikings grabbed the No. 2 seed.
