First look at the Conference Championship Games

What awaits us in the Conference Finals in the NFL playoffs?

Dear friends, you have ESPN, we only have three games left to finish the 2020 season NFL.

Next Sunday Conference Championship Games.

Fate wanted the two finals to face teams that played in the regular season, in the same week, the sixth. Let’s take a first look.

AMERICAN CONFERENCE

Next Sunday, they will face the first and second in sowing American. On their own merits and without surprises, the best two arrived.

In the regular season, these two met in week 6. They were heads those in charge of snatching the undefeated bills in that meeting that ended 26-17.

Protection heads he managed to stop Josh Allenand allowed only 122 meters through the air. On the ground, the defender Buffalo he could only record 42 meters. But, what was really weird or unusual about that match was the 245 meters on the field that heads.

This brand represented the largest amount of grass for the team in 2012 and was also the first time in the era Patrick mahomes, in which the current champion the city of Kansas I add more yards on the ground than in the air. Mahomes he had 225 in that game.

Buffalo finished with 50 offensive games for 76 of the city of Kansas.

In other words, keep it Allen most of the time it gives you a better chance of success.

In fact, the formula could be applied back through bills, to neutralize Mahomes. However, the ground offensive has Buffalo It is non-existent, therefore, on thoughts Allen he will have to be inspired to be able to overcome the champions.

heads enters this match as a favorite, however, the concussion protocol he introduced Mahomes this Sunday leaves a question mark that has even put gambling on hold.

Chad Henne, replacement for Mahomes, Did not look “so” bad, although he suffered an interception at a bad pass.

But there are differences if The most valuable player of 2018 is not available, the door will no doubt open for Buffalo.

Maybe by Wednesday we’ll find out about progress Mahomes to see if the final Conference.

An area where the city of Kansas He is also a senior head coach.

Andy Reid, the head coach of the reigning champions led his team to End of conference home for the third year in a row. Reid is one of the brightest minds in NFL and his experience and knowledge are beyond discussion.

In their turn, bills have in this position a younger coach, less experienced, but also talented in Sean McDermott.

He was responsible for the development and the explosion Allen this year. The sensational evolution of the young defender is stamped McDermott.

I’ll definitely stay with Reid, though McDermott he is one of the best exponents of the new generation of coaches.

Conclusion: heads They are preferred, of course, but we will have to wait for the evolution Mahomes, while his defense will have to repeat what was done in Week 6 in order to aspire to victory.

NATIONAL CONFERENCE

While Aaron Rodgers be the quarterback Green golf, you must always put packers as suitors. Other End of conference for those in the Green Gulf, no surprises, and beating a defense of Los Angeles Rams supposed to be the best in the league.

On the other hand, the third time was the charm for Winter sports weather in Buccaneeri. They lost both games of the regular season in front New Orleans Saints, but they won the most important match.

By the way, this duel will face the two defenders with the most touchdown passes of the regular season; Rodgers (48) and Tom Brady (40).

Of the five interceptions he suffered Rodgers In the regular season, two came in Week 6 against pcs.

Rodgers ended that meeting with 160 yards, no touchdown passes and completions less than 50% (16-35)

The defense of Gulf of Tampa, who finished as the best against the race, allow only 94 meters in a hurry.

This match was won by Gulf of Tampa, 38-10, even if Brady He barely threw for 166 meters, but with two touchdown passes.

What is certain is that no party is like another. Let me believe that pcs can repeat the dose of the one who finished as the best team in NFC, would be absurd. The two teams reach the best moment, and in the case Gulf of Tampa, erased doubts about the ease of his calendar.

In turn, Brady – which started the season with many errors, including several “pick-6” – rose to the level we knew a few years ago. Many believed that Brady He was finished, that he has no mobility (when did he have it?), That he did not reach his long passes and finished on the 1st place in passes of over 20 meters, with a total of 36.

Those bad matches of Brady they had their reason for being: lack of understanding with their recipients. Let’s remember that no team could have regular training until two weeks before the start of the season.

For next Sunday, two teams will face a very balanced attack, great defenders and an excellent running attack. So the difference must be made by the defense.

The of Gulf of Tampa looks better against running, but its perimeter is vulnerable and has in front Rodgers can lead to a very long afternoon.

Playing at home and being a more experienced team offers a slight advantage packers. Next Sunday we will leave the doubt.
