Comments:
The Cardinals are the only remaining team ranked below an eliminated team. But they are now in the top 12, and finally above another (albeit eliminated) playoff team.
The Eagles and Steelers are virtually tied. If the Steelers had held on to their 18-point lead, they would have held on to the #2 spot.
Since the seeding system was started, Eagles @ Cardinals is just the third championship game without a #1 or #2 seed. Others were in 1987: Vikings (#5) @ Redskins (#3) and 2006: Patriots (#4) @ Colts (#3).
