The Buffalo Bills visit the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game, meeting in the postseason for fourth time in the past five seasons.

The No. 6 seed Washington Commanders defeated the No. 3 seed Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Wild Card Weekend and the No. 1 seed Detroit Lions in the Divisional playoffs. With a win against No. 2 seed Philadelphia, Washington can become the third team ever to defeat the top three seeds in their conference in a single postseason and the third No. 6 seed to reach the Super Bowl, joining the 2005 Pittsburgh Steelers (won Super Bowl XL) and 2010 Green Bay Packers (won Super Bowl XLV).
