The road to Super Bowl LX is down to its final four teams, with the AFC and NFC Championship Games set for a dramatic Sunday of football.
In the AFC, the top-seeded Denver Broncos will host the second-seeded New England Patriots at Empower Field at Mile High. The Broncos advanced after a grueling overtime victory against the Buffalo Bills but suffered a devastating loss, with quarterback Bo Nix fracturing his right ankle on the game's penultimate play. Veteran backup Jarrett Stidham is now slated to start against a Patriots team coming off a decisive win over the Houston Texans, fueled by a five-takeaway defensive performance.
The NFC Championship features a divisional rubber match as the top-seeded Seattle Seahawks host the fifth-seeded Los Angeles Rams. The Seahawks earned their spot with a commanding blowout of the San Francisco 49ers, while the Rams survived a heart-stopping overtime battle against the Chicago Bears, capped by a walk-off field goal. The two NFC West rivals split their regular-season meetings, each winning in dramatic fashion, setting the stage for a high-stakes third encounter.
