And then there were four.
It's the No. 1 seeds vs. the No. 3 seeds on Championship Sunday, pitting our top two teams for the last two months against the defending-champion Chiefs and the darling Lions, who have more than proven their worth at this stage. Some might have felt it was the Bills' time, but it wasn't meant to be for Buffalo.
Interestingly, the two favorites in the conference title bouts are the teams with quarterbacks who have not been to a Super Bowl. Does that mean Patrick Mahomes and Jared Goff might have an edge heading into Sunday? Or will the cream of the Ravens and 49ers rise to the top in their home stadiums?
Either way, we're guaranteed to have a marquee Super Bowl matchup. That's about as good a guarantee as you can hope for at this point of the season. In less than a week, we'll find out who's headed to Las Vegas for Super Bowl LVIII.
We may be close to the finish line, but the final three games of the season are shaping up to be classics. Why stop now?
