Following the NFL’s re-seeding after the wild-card round, the playoffs are straightforward from here. The winner of the Bears-Rams game Sunday will play in the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 25 at 5:30 p.m., which will air on Fox. They’ll know who’s waiting for them before they start Sunday.

If the top-seeded Seahawks beat the 49ers on Saturday night, they would host the winner of the Rams-Bears game next. The Seahawks got a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs by going 14-3.

If the sixth-seeded 49ers prevail, they would visit the second-seeded Bears or fifth-seeded Rams.
