How to watch the NFL Playoffs Conference Championship games: It’s Bengals vs Chiefs and 49ers vs Rams. Here’s how to watch the AFC and NFC action
After perhaps the most exhilarating weekend of NFL Playoff action in history, only four teams are left in the NFL Playoffs. In the AFC, the Kansas City Chiefs edged out the Buffalo Bills in one of the greatest games ever, while the Cincinnati Bengals took down the much-fancied Tennessee Titans.
In the NFC, Tom Brady’s Tampa Buccaneers succumbed to Matt Stafford and the LA Rams, while the Green Bay Packers’ Super Bowl tilt ended in the snow at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers.
This Sunday, the final four square off in the AFC and NFC Championship games with the victors going to the big game next month.
The weekend’s games are as follows:
AFC Championship: Cincinnati Bengals @ Kansas City Chiefs
NFC Championship: San Francisco 49ers @ LA Rams
