Championship Weekend Preview

And then there were four. Championship weekend in the NFL has finally arrived. We got one team on the verge of a three peat. One team that's looking to get its first title in eight years and second overall. We got one team looking to win a title for the first time in thirty years. And the last team is looking to win it's first ever Super Bowl.

But in order to do that, they have to win this weekend. Championship weekend is here and here's how we see it going down.

Washington Commanders @ Philadelphia Eagles 3PM
We got ourselves an NFC East battle for the right to go to the big one. Safe to say that Washington is heading into this game playing with house money. With a rookie QB under center in what was considered a rebuild year, nobody expected Washington to be still standing here at this point in the season. Its going to be a tight game. Daniels has been playing like a man possessed and has played solid football during the playoffs. Daniels play is going to be a factor here, because his counterpart in Jalen Hurts got his knee banged up against the Rams last week. When you have a dual threat under center, and somebody who's been so key for that potent run game, along with Barkley, it going to be a real test for the Philadelphia offense.

Somehow, the Philadelphia experience is going to win out at the end of the game. no doubt in my mind Washington has made a believer out of a lot people with this playoff run they've been on. At the end of the day, the clock is going to strike midnight on the season for the Commanders. It going to be a pretty close day, but at the end of it all the Eagles find a way.

Eagles 27, Commanders 17

Buffalo Bills @ Kansas City Chiefs 6:30PM
The big one on the weekend, the one everybody is going to want to watch. Mahomes and Allen again. For Josh Allen, he got a lot riding on this game. Buffalo hasn't been to a Superbowl in 30 years, let alone win one. He's got an entire city believing in him and he has the skills to be able to change that fortune around for Buffalo. And what gives Buffalo the advantage in this game is the ability to be able to limit and create turnovers. They had 35 takeaways this season, as compared to just 8 total turnovers. They control the ball very very well.

At the same time, you going against one of the very best to ever do it in Patrick Mahomes. He can pretty much find a way, in some ways nobody even imagined, to pull a game off. What worries me is how well this defense is going to be able to contain Allen. Not just on Allen's skillset, but lets be real here. This isn't as good a defense we've seen in Kansas City as we have seen the last two years. Don't get it twisted, they're good. But the quality level isn't quite the same. This is going to be a physical game and a nail biter. Its going to come down to whoever gets the ball last.

Chiefs 30, Bills 27
