The following teams had a better road record than home record last year:

Dallas
NY Giants
Green Bay
Chicago
New Orleans
New England
NY Jets
Denver


The following additional teams played equally well on the road as at home:

Philadelphia
Minnesota
Carolina
Atlanta
St. Louis
Cincinnati
Cleveland
Tennessee

What is interesting is that some of the teams known for their HFA (Denver and Green Bay) actually had better records on the road last year. Seattle was the only NFC playoff team that had a positve HFA. Six of the eight teams with a better road record than home record made the playoffs.
