AFC and NFC Championship Round Predictions
The Carolina Panthers ended the Seattle Seahawks season with a 31-24 home win, and the Panthers go on to host the National Football Conference final next week, against the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona failed to cover as a 7-point favorite.

Cam Newton is looking to lead the Panthers to their second win over Seattle this season.
The divisional round of the playoffs provided plenty of excitement for fans across the country and around the globe, and four teams are left standing with the hopes of reaching the greatest single game in all of professional sports. Rob Gronkowski is one low hit away from being taken out and Julian Edelman broke his foot not that long ago.
Kansas City saw an 11-game win streak snapped.
The Patriots will make a fifth consecutive trip to the American Conference finals, playing the victor of today’s Denver-Pittsburgh matchup for a berth in Super Bowl 50.
However, don’t write off the Cardinals or Broncos.
The Cardinals defence wasn’t helped by the fact that their quarterback Carson Palmer was having a relatively poor game, by his standards, throwing two interceptions and seeing many more fall through defenders hands.
Palmer completed 25-of-41 passes for 349 yards, including an 8-yard touchdown pass to Michael Floyd to open the scoring and a 9-yard TD toss to Floyd with 3:44 remaining in the fourth quarter to give Arizona a 17-13 lead.
The Denver Broncos came through with a late fourth-quarter touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and that allowed them to take the lead and eventually beat the injury-plagued visitors, 23-16. Denver later scored on a touchdown run by C.J. Anderson, giving them the 20-13 advantage after the two-point conversion.
Kickoff for the Cardinals at Panthers game on Sunday is set for 6:40pm ET.
Manning and Brady have squared off 16 times before, a full season’s worth of matchups between the two quarterbacks whose careers are so intertwined that a conversation about one nearly has to include the other – like Bird vs. Magic or Ali vs. Frazier. That’s not going to be easy, though, and it should be one heck of a game next weekend.
The Patriots are listed as 3.5-point road favorites over the Broncos, according to Odds Shark, while the Panthers are three-point favorites over the Cardinals.
The New England Patriots are the Carolina Panthers both advanced to their respective Conference Championship games, and now they’re both favored to move on and meet in the Super Bowl. Brady threw for 280 yards with three touchdowns for the Patriots in that losing cause.
No. 5 seed Green Bay at No. 2 seed Cardinals- Don’t let the regular season fool you.

Like Pittsburgh, the Broncos defense is a scary factor to account for and it bested Tom Brady once already this season.
