If the Packers hadn't blown a 21-3 halftime lead to the Bears, the Seahawks had a chance to avoid playing either of their two division rivals that currently are in the NFC postseason.

The San Francisco 49ers likely have a tough road ahead of them if they're able to beat the Philadelphia Eagles in the wild card round.

Saturday’s wild card results mean the Seahawks will host either the Rams or 49ers in the divisional round depending on what happens on Sunday.

How different outcomes over the remaining NFC Wild Card games will influence the Rams' Divisional Round playoff opponent.

The Rams did themselves zero favors in that game, turning it over three times. Matthew Stafford blamed himself after the game. Despite what the scoreboard said, the Rams were the better team that day. Every break went Carolina’s way, including the fourth down variance.

Who will the 49ers face if they beat the Eagles? A breakdown of every NFC Divisional Playoff scenario and what's next for San Francisco.

Who do the Los Angeles Rams play in the NFL playoffs next? When do they? What to know about team's next playoff game, with date, location, opponent.

The Favorite (s): The top spot is firmly in the grasp of the Seahawks, who dominated the 49ers in San Francisco to close out their regular season. With that win, they clinched the NFC West title and the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs. The Rams remained second on the board after a 34-31 wild-card win over the Panthers in Carolina.

The 49ers would be the only team that the Rams could host in round 2. The Packers would be the only team that the Rams could host in the NFC Championship. First they need to avenge their previous loss in Carolina on Saturday. Then root for the Packers.
