The Greatest Story on Turf: Conference Championships 2024
The Greatest Story on Turf: Conference Championships 2024 presents the story going into every playoff game. Each game is ranked, with the number one game being the most exciting of the weekend and predicted winners at the bottom of each matchup.
2. Commanders vs. Eagles III
Champion's Trial
The Commanders and Eagles are division rivals. They have already faced off twice. In the 21st century, there have been three division rivals who played each other in the conference championship in the NFC, and every time, the winner of that game has gone on to win the Super Bowl. The Packers beat the Steelers after beating the Bears. The Seahawks beat the Patriots after beating the 49ers, and the Rams beat the Bengals after beating the 49ers. Also, except for the Bears game, where quarterback Jay Cutler got injured, the division winner won the matchup every time both QBs finished the game.
Jalen Hurts and Jayden Daniels have the most exciting Super Bowl stories. Either of them would be the first black running quarterback to win the Super Bowl. For QB Jalen Hurts, this is a chance to finish what he started. He made it to the Super Bowl once before and played his butt off and still lost. That's been the story for Jalen Hurts lately. No matter what he does, it's never enough. But the Super Bowl is the one accomplishment that shuts everyone up. If Jalen Hurts wins the Super Bowl, there's nothing anyone can say about him.
For Saquon Barkley, this would be a massive win for running backs. The Giants discarded Saqon Barkley because running backs were looked at as replaceable and thus not valuable. Saquon is proving this year that running backs are very valuable and need to be paid as such. However, along the way, Saquon has sacrificed some stats, like being the all-time rushing leader for a single season. He sat instead of chasing that record. The only way that's worth it is if he wins the Super Bowl.
Jayden is having the best rookie QB season of all time. This is his audition for the Super Bowl. The Eagles are a Super Bowl Super team. If Jayden Daniels can overcome the Eagles roster, then he can play David to any AFC Goliath in the Super Bowl. Is the Cinderella run over, or can Jayden and the Commanders go all the way?
Prediction Eagles
1. Bills vs. Chiefs IV
Loser Leaves Legacy
The Bills and Chiefs have been doing this dance for a while, and every time, the Chiefs have come out on top. If Patrick Mahomes beats Josh Allen this time, he will be the first quarterback to go 4-0 against a rival in the playoffs. Mahomes and the Chiefs are one game away from competing in a three-peat. This would be an incredible feat, and it is unlikely that the Chiefs will ever get a shot to do it again. History is on the line for the Chiefs.
The Bills are still trying to get over the hump, and if they can do it, the entire NFL will rejoice. Nobody except the actual goat Tom Brady (every time) and Joe Burrow (1 of 2 times) have been able to stop Patrick Mahomes from winning a Super Bowl. It would be the perfect storybook path if Josh Allen could make it to the Super Bowl for the first time by beating his long-time rival, the Chiefs. Josh Allen is playing the most mistake-free football of his career. Can he keep it up a little longer and defeat the reigning champions?
