Actually no there aren't. if two teams vying for wild card status have the same number of wins and losses then they go with the team that beat the other team during the regular season. Same way they determine home field advantage. First the ones with the better record and then the one with the better record against the other candidates.

Something else
During the lastest transmission from the NFL I have seen a commercial logo for something called Pro Bowl 26/27 January 3 pm
What is that ?
Is there a professional version of NFL ?

The ProBowl is a special exhibition called an "All Star Game" that is played by certain regular NFL players from around the league. They are chosen by their fellow players and coaches by lottery.
See this for a more complete description.

Before the play they showed us each player and under these players there was 2 letters like:
SS, RB, CB(not really sure if I have remembered this correctly) and others
I know QB means Quarterback
So my question is what does these two letter means and what is their job/task on the field ?

SS - Strong Safety
RB - Running Back
CB- Corner Back
Here's a link to all of them:
