Re-seeding: Home field is determined by seeding number, not position on the bracket. The NFL does not use a fixed bracket system. The outcome of the games between the sixth and third seeds in each conference determine where the Wild Card winners will play in the next round. When a third seed wins, they next travel to the second seed. When the sixth seed wins, they travel to the first seed. The winner between the fifth and fourth seeds will play the remaining second round host team in that conference.
Conference Championship home field goes to the higher seed remaining.

"Re-seeding": The NFL Playoffs are re-seeded after each round. The outcome of the games between the third and sixth seeds in each conference determine where the Wild Card winners will play in the Divisional Playoffs. When a third seed wins, they face the second seed, but the sixth seed plays the first seed.
