2021 NFL PLAYOFFS: CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND
Various Networks, 3:00 p.m. ET
In college basketball, they would refer to today’s pair of games as the Final Four: Two contests, with the victors of each game advancing to the national championship. Only in pro football, the championship game is the Super Bowl. The NFC Championship Game is played first – at 3 p.m. on Fox, with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers facing the Green Bay Packers. Then, at 6:30 p.m. on CBS, the AFC Championship Game follows with the Buffalo Bills vs. the Kansas City Chiefs. And in both games, there’s a duel between marquee quarterbacks: the 13-5 Bucs are led by former New England Patriots QB Tom Brady, the 14-3 Packers by Aaron Rodgers (pictured). And over at the AFC, Josh Allen leads the 15-3 Bills against Patrick Mahomes and the 15-2 Chiefs.
