NFC Championship Game

(13-4) San Francisco 49ers at (14-3) Philadelphia Eagles
(Eagles by 2.5 – 45.5 O/U) San Francisco’s season was once thought to be in peril after injuries to both Garoppolo and Lance, but young sensation Purdy stepped in and has led the 49ers to claim their position in the NFC Championship Game. Philadelphia has been polarizing to watch this season and is unmatchable in most respect this season. They were our pick to win the Super Bowl this season and they are merely one win away from the Super Bowl, but they play an opponent that will look to capitalize on any mistakes. An nearly even matchup overall and one that will come down to turnovers. Which team can capitalize on those turnovers and turn them into points will walk away with the NFC Championship. Our pick… Eagles by 5/Over.

AFC Championship Game

(12-4) Cincinnati Bengals at (14-3) Kansas City Chiefs
(Chiefs by 1.5 – 47.5 O/U) A rematch to last season’s AFC Championship which saw the Bengals go on to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. Cincinnati has the tools to once again pull off the big upset and earn their trip to the Super Bowl. They have an explosive offense coupled with a dominant defense. Kansas City has added some key depth that has made a huge difference for them this season and that very depth should give them the upper hand in this match up. Kanas City will also be playing with a chip on their shoulders since they have last year’s loss to avenge today. Our pick… Chiefs by 4/Over.
