2018 NFL Power Rankings: Final four set for Championship Round
By Randy Gurzi
With the final four teams set to meet for the right to play in the Super Bowl, how do they stack up in our 2018 NFL Power Rankings?
The second round of the 2018 NFL Playoffs are in the books now and the final four teams are set for the AFC and NFC Championship games. The Minnesota Vikings will host the Philadelphia Eagles and the New England Patriots will be at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
There a couple huge surprises as the Eagles upended the Atlanta Falcons with a backup quarterback in Nick Foles. It was the first time a No. 1 seed was the underdog to a No. 6 seed, and they obviously took that to heart and found a way to win.
Another shocker was the Jacksonville Jaguars going into Heinz Field and beating the Pittsburgh Steelers in the highest scoring game of the playoffs. The defensive-minded Jags put up 45 points in the classic showdown.
Then there was the Minnesota Vikings winning in walk off fashion with a desperation bomb down the field as they got one step closer to being the first NFL team to play a Super Bowl in their own stadium.
The least surprising game was of course the Saturday night contest in which the Patriots walked all over the Tennessee Titans. With all that dust settled, here are how the final four teams stack up in the Championship Round of the 2018 NFL Playoffs.
