is the bracket going to stay the same the entire playoffs or is the higher seed going to play the lower seed everytime.

for example...washington beats seattle, will washington play dallas then no matter what or are they going to play the packers.

me and a buddy got into the argument but i think that the bracket changes pending on who wins unless it changed, thanks for whoever responds.
 

I'm all about low expectations

Reseeding

Unlike most tournaments, with a predetermined bracket, each round of the NFL playoffs is 're-seeded'; the highest surviving seed always hosts the lowest surviving seed, the second-highest hosts the second-lowest, etc. This guarantees each division winner at least one home playoff game.

The two surviving teams from the Divisional Playoff games meet in Conference Championship games, with the winners of those contests going on to face one another in the Super Bowl.
