The AFC and NFC Championship matchups are set following the conclusion of the Divisional Round on Sunday.
The Kansas City Chiefs will face the Buffalo Bills in the AFC, while the Washington Commanders square off against the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC.
Despite entering the playoffs as the NFC’s No. 1 seed, the Detroit Lions were eliminated in the Divisional Round. The Commanders, led by rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, delivered a stunning 45-31 upset in Detroit, leaving the Lions’ Super Bowl hopes in ruins.

Adding insult to injury, Green Bay Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon took an unexpected shot at the Lions on Sunday.
“Somebody tell them boys in Detroit I got a extra room at the villa in Cabo,” Nixon posted.
The Packers’ postseason ended earlier, with a 22-10 Wild Card loss to the Eagles, but Nixon couldn’t resist mocking his NFC North rivals.
Cabo is a popular offseason destination for NFL players, and Nixon’s comment was a jab at the Lions, who had high expectations after a dominant regular season.
In the end, both the Lions and Packers are out of the playoff race and will be watching the remaining games from home—or somewhere sunny.
