Championship Sunday

Hosted by MeanGene "The Sports Machine" and Quinn Brown with special guest Mr. Picks (Jeff Lambert Sr.)

Championship Sunday begins with the AFC Championship Game, presented by Intuit TurboTax, between the TENNESSEE TITANS (11-7) and the KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (13-4), followed by the NFC Championship Game, presented by Intuit TurboTax, featuring the GREEN BAY PACKERS (14-3) and the SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (14-3). For th​e 15th consecutive season, there will be a new Super Bowl champion. ​

Three of the four remaining teams – Green Bay, San Francisco and Tennessee – are making a Championship game appearance after missing the playoffs last season. This marks the sixth time that at least three teams have advanced to the Championship games after failing to make the postseason the previous year since the NFL instituted the 12-team playoff format in 1990 and the second time in the past three seasons. Additionally, San Francisco is the fifth team since 1990 to advance to a Championship Game after winning four-or-fewer games the previous season, and the second in three years, joining Jacksonville in 2017.

In the NFC, this marks the third consecutive year in which the Championship Game features the conference’s top-two seeds. The AFC, meanwhile, sees the No. 6 seed Titans traveling to the No. 2 seed Chiefs. The Titans are the first six seed to reach the Conference Championship since the New York Jets and Green Bay Packers in 2010. The Chiefs join New England (2011-12, 2016-17) as the only teams to host the AFC Championship in consecutive seasons since 2000.
