SAD NEWS: 49ers key player is found dead yesterday evening. What Happended
Ravens and 49ers emerge victorious in the NFL, with a definite postseason picture emerging.
On Saturday, NFL Super Wild Card Weekend kicks off.
Sunday marked the conclusion of the NFL regular season for 2023, with clubs securing their last postseason berths and winning division crowns.
As the Miami Dolphins faced the Buffalo Bills for the AFC East division title and a chance at a home playoff game this month, the NFC side of the bracket was decided before the AFC.
Throughout the playoffs, the San Francisco 49ers had home-field advantage and the NFC West championship. The Philadelphia Eagles lost to the New York Giants on the road, while the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Washington Commanders to secure the NFC East championship.
For the first time since 2016, the Detroit Lions are back in the postseason and have won their division for the first time since 1991. Their NFC ranking is No. 3. The top three NFC clubs all had 12-5 regular season records.

The teams who received wild-card spots were the Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams, and Eagles.
The Baltimore Ravens enter the playoffs with the best record in the NFL (13-5), despite their Saturday loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. There will be a first-round bye for the Ravens.
The Houston Texans and Kansas City Chiefs became victorious in their respective divisions. The Chiefs have not played like a championship-caliber team much this season, but they now have their eyes set on back-to-back Super Bowl victories. For the first time since 2019, the Texans are back in the postseason. The Texans won the division title after the Tennessee Titans defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Eagles’ struggles continue as they lose to the Giants, while the Cowboys take down commanders to win the NFC East title.
To secure the AFC East, the Buffalo Bills stunned the Miami Dolphins. After winning the division for the fourth time in a row, the squad will now get to play a playoff game at home. The game was won by Buffalo on Sunday night, 21-14.
The most unlikely club to qualify for the playoffs may have been the Cleveland Browns. Deshaun Watson was the team’s starting quarterback at the beginning of the season, while Joe Flacco was the starter at the conclusion. One of the wild-card round’s most interesting matchups is theirs against the Texans.
Thanks to their victory over the Ravens, the Steelers also improbably made it into the postseason.
