Summary

The Buffalo Bills decided to part ways with head coach Sean McDermott and it was clearly a mistake, but now things are getting even worse in Buffalo as general manager Brandon Beane and owner Terry Pegula embarrassed themselves at a press conference on Wednesday. The Los Angeles Chargers made a massive move to hire Mike McDaniel as their offensive coordinator and it shows that Jim Harbaugh is truly willing to do what it takes to make his team better. The NFL's conference championships are this weekend and with the Denver Broncos missing Bo Nix, they will need the run game more than ever. Now, they may get back JK Dobbins, who would be a big boost in that realm. They will face the New England Patriots who have been criticized for their less-than-difficult schedule, but history doesn't care about that and winning is what matters. In the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks run game has been electric, but without Zach Charbonnet, Kenneth Walker will be more important than ever. The Los Angeles Rams will still be relying on Matthew Stafford to come up clutch, and if his last game against Seattle is any indication, Stafford will be ready.
