At the conference table, there will never be any peace....

 So, in the Divisional NFL Playoff games, I went 3-1, get only the Washington Commanders/Detroit Lions game in correct.   That makes my total so far in the Playoffs 7-3.

This week, we have the Conference Championships, with the winners going to the Super Bowl.  Whatever the outcome of these games, I'm gonna be rooting for the AFC team, whoever it is, because I really, really don't like either of the two NFC teams. 
 

AFC Championship Game
Buffalo Bills at Kansas City Chiefs

After the Dallas Cowboys, the Chiefs are my second favorite team, so I'll be pulling for them.  And the Bills probably don't wanna win.  Thirty years ago, they made the Super Bowl four years in a row, which is impressive.  But they lost all four (which isn't).   And the three teams they lost to were the New York Giants, The Washington Redskins, and the Dallas Cowboys...all of which happen to be in the NFC East Division.  Coincidentally, both the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles are in the NFC East.  So if history is any guide....

But I digress.  With Andy Reid as head coach and Patrick Mahomes at quarterback, and being at home, they're gonna be tough, REAL tough to beat.  Not impossible, but real tough.  

Chiefs win. 

NFC Championship Game
Washington Commanders at Philadelphia Eagles

I don't like either of these teams, and don't really want either of them to reach the Super Bowl.  But I hate the Eagles just a little bit less than the Commanders, so, without any more hooplah...

Eagles win. 

As an aside, if I had my preference, THIS is the order of the teams in the Super Bowl I'd like to see. 

1. Chiefs - Eagles
2. Chiefs - Commanders
3. Bills - Eagles
4. Bills - Commanders
