It all comes down to this.
Championship Sunday in the NFL is approaching, with the matchup for Super Bowl LX to be decided.
On the AFC side, the No. 1 Denver Broncos — without injured quarterback Bo Nix — will face off against Drake Maye and the No. 2 New England Patriots. The Broncos defeated the Bills, 33-30, in an overtime thriller before their quarterback was injured late. On Sunday, the Patriots picked off C.J. Stroud four times and Maye threw three touchdowns in a 28-16 victory.
Then, in the NFC, it’ll be the No. 1 Seattle Seahawks hosting the No. 5 Los Angeles Rams. LA ended the divisional round with a late thriller at the snowy home of the No. 2 Chicago Bears, but flipped the script with a miracle of its own to win 20-17 in overtime.
