it goes based on inter-conference records and then head to head as tie breakers. Although Dallas beat Seattle they were 9-3 against the NFC and Seattle was 10-2. Therefore Seattle got the one seed. If they had the same record and same inter-conference record the tie breaker would've went to Dallas. But either way I am fine with it. They won a tough and ugly game against the Lions and they are 8-0 on the road so I like our chances as long as we play our game. If we get away from what we do best then it will be a tough time. Dallas and Seattle for the NFC championship I still believe and whoever wins WILL win the super bowl. The AFC just doesn't have what the NFC does.
