The four NFC and four AFC division champions and six wild-card teams - the three non-division winners with the best records in each conference - will compete in a single elimination tournament. The final four will play in the AFC and NFC championship games on Jan.

The Minnesota Vikings are the No. 5 seed in the NFC and will need to exact revenge against the Los Angeles Rams in order to advance to the divisional round of the postseason. From there, they could be looking at a rematch with the Detroit Lions or a trip to Philadelphia to face the Eagles.

Now that the NFL's regular season has ended, for most football fans, the next big event on their radar is Super Bowl 59.
