These two NFC East rivals have already played twice this season, and both games were thrilling. In Week 11, the Eagles outlasted the Commanders 26-18 in Philadelphia, but Washington returned the favor in Week 16 with a wild 36-33 win on their home turf. These teams know each other well, and with a Super Bowl berth on the line, don't expect anything less than a heavyweight clash next weekend.
In the AFC, the Chiefs and Bills are set for their own rubber match, with Kansas City looking to defend its home turf at Arrowhead Stadium. The Bills handed the Chiefs their only loss of the season back in Week 11, a 30-21 victory in Buffalo that snapped Kansas City's eight-game win streak. The Chiefs' sole other loss came in a Week 18 game when they rested starters in a win over the Broncos. This game promises to be another classic, as Buffalo tries to accomplish something they haven't yet done in the Patrick Mahomes era: beat the Chiefs in the postseason.
In the end, only two teams will emerge victorious and punch their ticket to New Orleans for the Super Bowl. The rest will join the long offseason and begin preparing for the 2025 campaign. The NFC and AFC Championship games are always filled with drama, but this year, they promise even more—two marquee matchups with so much on the line.
