The NFL playoffs move into the title games after reigning AFC champion Cincinnati Bengals beat the Buffalo Bills on the road and the San Francisco 49ers beat the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
The divisional round of the 2023 NFL playoffs began Saturday when the Kansas City Chiefs and a limping Patrick Mahomes defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars 27-20 and the Philadelphia Eagles absolutely destroyed the New York Giants 38-7.
After a week’s hiatus, the top-ranked teams from each conference entered the fray that weekend, and both moved on. The Chiefs, the AFC’s highest-ranked team for the past four years, will now play in the AFC Championship Game for the fifth straight year. On the NFC side, the top-seeded Eagles will make their first NFC title appearance since the 2017 season after their convincing win over their rivals.
Two other teams are trying to beat their conference championship tickets today.
This year marks the fourth Super Bowl in Arizona and the first since the Patriots rallied to defeat the Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX.
