The POD staff make their predictions for the slate of Conference Championship games in the NFL. Only four teams remain in the hunt for the Vince Lombardi Trophy ahead of the Conference Championship games, and the Pride of Detroit staff have made their picks for each of the contests.
No more weekend-long extravaganzas: the NFL will figure out who is playing in Super Bowl LIX this upcoming Sunday. The first matchup is the NFC Championship Game, a third entry this season into the NFC East rivalry between the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles at 3 p.m. ET on FOX. In the primetime slot, the AFC showcases two of the game’s best quarterbacks when Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills travel to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS/Paramount+.
As we have done in past seasons, our staff will be making weekly predictions for every game on the NFL schedule. Each of the Pride of Detroit staff will pick the moneyline (winner of the game, no spread), but some of the members will also pick against the spread and even the over/under lines—there’s an easy toggle button in the widget below to cycle through the settings. You can also check out all of the odds for this week’s games courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook.
Here is who our staff is picking on the moneyline, spread, and over/under for both of the Conference Championship games:
