The New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks advance to their respective conference championship games.
The conference championship games are starting to take shape after the NFL playoff games on Saturday. The New England Patriots came from down 14 points twice in the game to defeat the Baltimore Ravens and punch their ticket. It was a thrilling game that came down to the wire.
The Seattle Seahawks played the Carolina Panthers, who got into the playoffs as the NFC South champions despite a losing record. The Panthers couldn’t get past the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks though. This game was close entering the second half, but it was all Seahawks from that point on.
So the Seahawks are one of two teams that will play in the NFC Championship game, and will face the winner of the Green Bay Packers–Dallas Cowboys clash.
