NFL PLAYOFFS - AFC, NFC Championship Games Recap

It will be the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles squaring off in Super Bowl LII (52) in two weeks in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The Patriots won a thrilling game, 24-20 over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC Championship Game as they scored 14 fourth quarter points to overcome a ten-point deficit. Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (pictured right) threw two scoring passes to wide receiver Danny Amendola (seven receptions for 84 yards) in the comeback win.
The Jaguars took a 14-3 lead in the second quarter when Leonard Fournette scored on a four-yard run, which followed Jags' QB Blake Bortles four-yard scoring pass to tight end Mercedes Lewis. But the Patriots cut the deficit to 14-10 at halftime when James White scored on a one-yard rushing touchdown.
With the win, it is the New England Patriots tenth trip to the Super Bowl and their eighth appearance since the 2001 season.
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles crushed the Minnesota Vikings, 38-7 as QB Nick Foles (pictured left) threw for three touchdowns along with 352 passing yards to lead the way.
The Eagles defense limited the Vikings to just 70 rushing yards and forced three turnovers (two interceptions and a fumble recovery), including a 50-yard "pick six" interception by cornerback Patrick Robinson that tied the game at 7-7 late in the first quarter. The Vikings had taken a 7-0 lead on their first drive of the game when QB Case Keenum connected with tight end Kyle Rudolph on a 25-yard TD pass.
The rest of the game was all Philadelphia as the Eagles scored 17 points in the second quarter as LeGarrette Blount scored on an 11-yard run and Foles threw a 53-yard scoring pass to WR Alshon Jeffery, who had two scoring receptions in the game.
As a result of the win, the Eagles are going back to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 2004 season and it will be a "re-match" of Super Bowl 39, which the Patriots won 24-21.
