Both conference title games the most evenly matched in quarter century
It’s been 25 years since both NFL conference championship games were this evenly matched from an oddsmakers standpoint.
The previous time both conference championship games featured spreads under 3 points was 1998. The Packers were 2½-point favourites at San Francisco in the NFC game. The Broncos were 2½-point favourites at Pittsburgh in the AFC matchup. Both road teams won. This game pits the two top defences in the NFL, two of the best rushing offences and plenty of playmakers on both sides. Miles Sanders, AJ Brown, Devonta Smith and Dallas Goedert for the Eagles. Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle and Brandon Aiyuk for San Francisco.
Home-field advantage is the difference in this one. Purdy has only made two road starts in Seattle and Las Vegas. Philadelphia is just different. The Eagles have hostile fans who won’t let up.Joe Burrow is 3-0 against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, including a comeback win in overtime last year in the AFC championship game also played in Arrowhead Stadium.
Before last season, the Bengals hadn’t won a playoff game in 31 years. Now, they’re 5-1 over the past two seasons with Burrow leading the way. He has plenty of help in Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Joe Mixon.
