NFL playoffs predictions: Who will make it to the Super Bowl?

/ 07:38 AM January 23, 2023

Four teams are left standing strong as the NFL Championship Playoffs near, with the Kansas City Chief, Cincinnati Bengals, Philadelphia Eagles, and San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs.

It’s a rematch of last year’s game in the AFC as the Cincinnati Bengals head on to face the Kansas City Chiefs. While the Bengals, headed by Joe Burrow, upset the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes last year for a place in Super Bowl 56. Same as before, the Bengals need to defeat the Chief to get ahead to the season’s last game.

After the Eagles’ victory over the New York Giants on Saturday, the 49ers secured their place as they beat the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night during the NFC divisional games. Thus, the Super Bowl matchups were all set.

Moreover, if the Buffalo Bills won over the Bengals on Sunday, the AFC championship would be at a common site, the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. However, due to some unexpected circumstances after Damar Hamlin’s cardiac arrest, the locations are different.

The Philadelphia Eagles will headline the NFC championship as the top overall seed. Their match, the 49ers, with the team’s ultimate defense, brought down the Cowboys on Sunday’s match. Thus, the 49ers and Eagles matchup will be a great game between the top two seeds in the NFC.

Normally when it’s the NFL championship season, one or two teams are better than the others. But this time, all four teams have a great chance of winning. The small gaps from the Super Bowl favorite prove it. Below are the Super Bowl odds:

Cincinnati Bengals +260

Kansas City Chiefs +250

San Francisco 49ers +280

Philadelphia Eagles +270

The NFL championship matchups are intriguing enough to look forward to. It’s unusual to see a team with the fourth-best odds at +280 and a Super Bowl favorite at only 250+ with only two games left.

Moreover, what’s also interesting is that two AFC teams took the top two spots. It means that whoever wins will be in favor of Super Bowl LVII. However, any injury occurrence in the AFC title game or the NFC game could alter any chances, according to Yahoo Sports.

In addition, both the championship games have minimal spread. The Eagles opened as 1.5-point favorites, while the Chiefs started as 1.5-point favorites vs. the Bengals. The 49ers shifted immediately to a 2.5-point favorite after the line was final, but that could still toughen up as the games push.

Furthermore, the NFC championship game will start at 3 p.m. ET on Fox. Then the AFC game will follow at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS. You can get tickets at Ticketmaster.com if you want to watch it live. Tickets will go on sale tomorrow, Jan.24, at 10 a.m. All tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis with a limit of just 4 tickets per household.
