Doesn't the home field advantage in the Conference Championship games go to the higher seed? 2001:8C0:9604:100:F838:1728:F39:C637 (talk) 21:09, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It depends how you view it. 1 is lower than 2 in terms of the order of numbers [and I presume that's what the wording means], but 1 is better than 2 in NFL terms. 94.193.96.26 (talk) 11:50, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have temporarily changed it to "highest seed remaining". That is the wording used in the official NFL Record and Fact book and other official NFL sources that explain the playoff system. Zzyzx11 (talk) 18:44, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is a fundamental problem of how seeding works. The team with the highest regular-season win/loss percentage is seeded with the lowest seed number, which is considered the highest seed. When I originally wrote the re-seeding note, I believe I used "lowest-numbered seed" to make this clear. Apparently it's not. I give up.

Aren't the NFC and AFC flipped in this bracket? Seahawks were NFC champs, Broncos AFC. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:1023:80E1:586:40FA:845D:CCA5 (talk) 18:01, 27 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
