NFL playoffs schedule, bracket update for conference championship games
The stage is almost set.
Only two more games stand in the way of determining the matchup for Super Bowl 59, which will bring the 14-team bracket down to just two finalists by Sunday night. The remaining four teams, two in each conference, each come with their own storylines in what’s been a wild season.
The Bills survived a comeback attempt from the Ravens, advancing to the AFC championship game to battle Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs for the ninth time since 2020. Meanwhile in the NFC, the upstart Commanders keep on marching and now get to take on their division rivals in Philadelphia, taking on the Eagles.

Updated NFL playoff bracket
Two teams remain in each conference, with only one set to advance to the Super Bowl. The NFC’s top seeded Lions were knocked out of the postseason last week, giving the Eagles an extra home game in their quest for becoming champions.
There are familiar matchups on both sides of the bracket. The Bills and Chiefs renew their rivalry in Kansas City, while the Commanders and Eagles face off for the third time this season in an NFC East themed matchup.

How does the NFL playoff bracket work?
The NFL playoff bracket is ever-changing, evolving as the postseason moves along. Both No. 1 seeds, one in each conference, earn a bye week to begin their playoff schedule. It’s a departure from the old format, where the top two seeds were awarded bye weeks.
Matchups are determined by seeding, since the bracket is not a fixed one that is common in other sports. That provides a wide range of outcomes, especially if upsets take place throughout the playoffs.
When will the Super Bowl matchup be known?
The stage will be set for Super Bowl 59 on Sunday night following the conclusion of the Chiefs vs. Bills game in Kansas City.
