The NFC and AFC championship games on Sunday to determine the teams in this year’s Super Bowl have all the ingredients for a dramatic finish to these NFL playoffs.
The first matchup features two NFC East division rivals meeting for the third time this season. The Washington Commanders feature rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who enhanced his reputation in each postseason start thus far after leading Washington past the Detroit Lions in the divisional round. The Philadelphia Eagles are nonetheless the favorite, attempting to win the NFC crown for the second time in three years behind the duo of Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts and the league’s second-best defense.
Conference championship Sunday concludes with an AFC rematch between two teams and two quarterbacks with plenty of recent playoff history. The Buffalo Bills and quarterback Josh Allen will try once more to knock Patrick Mahomes from the playoffs when they visit the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs for the AFC championship game. Allen is 0-3 vs. Mahomes in the postseason, although the Bills did beat the Chiefs in the regular season.
