Breaking Down the NFL's Conference Championship Games
James Yoder, CEO and founder of Chat Sports, breaks down the AFC and NFC Championship games. The Patriots barely escaped the Jaguars 24-20, while the Eagles pounded the Vikings 38-7.
The Patriots will play in their 10th Super Bowl, the most appearances by any team in the NFL. Yoder explains betting lines fluctuated a little after quarterback Tom Brady's reported hand injury, but bookies knew he was never actually in danger of missing the game.
In the NFC, Yoder says no one saw the Eagles beat down of the Vikings coming. The Eagles will be playing in their third Super Bowl.
Yoder doesn't expect a decrease in viewership, despite what he refers to as "Patriots fatigue." He says the Patriots always bring viewers, and people will watch thanks to the "Brady Factor."
