I had been waiting all year for the 2020 NFL playoffs and the moment has finally arrived. It’s wild that we are already here. After weeks and months of anticipation, I had my team bracket filled out, and I’m so excited to watch the top teams go all out for the championship.
This year’s playoff bracket started surprisingly, with some of my favorite teams taking top spots in the wild-card round. This included the Seattle Seahawks, Green Bay Packers, Buffalo Bills, and Tennessee Titans. Each of these teams made it through the round, breathing a collective sigh of relief after a long regular season.
Then came the divisional round: it was a true spectacle for fans and sports enthusiasts everywhere. There was the one-goal victory of the San Francisco 49ers against the Minnesota Vikings, the famous last minute touchdown from the Tennessee Titans against the Baltimore Ravens of, and the nail biting finish of the Green Bay Packers against the Seattle Seahawks. It was truly electric watching the game action unfold.
Going into the conference championship games, the matchups looked something like this: the San Francisco 49ers versus the Green Bay Packers for the NFC Championship, and the Kansas City Chiefs vs the Tennessee Titans for the AFC Championship. This created an amazing atmosphere of excitement and energy all around. Everyone was hoping that their favorite team would make it to the Super Bowl.
And then finally, after all of the nail biting and tense moments, the final two teams were decided. The Chiefs took the AFC Championship and the 49ers emerged as the victor in the NFC Championship. Slowly but surely, the grand stage had been set. It had been an incredible display of skills by both teams.
All of the teams in the playoffs have had an amazing season full of highlights and lowlights. I can’t even imagine what it must feel like to be one of the players on the field right now. They must be feeling so many emotions all at once.
Looking ahead to the big game, I can’t help but think of the things that make this event so special. The anticipation of the Super Bowl, the cheer of the loyal fans, and the electric atmosphere of the cities being represented are all unmatched. Everyone is going to be glued to the TV to watch the game, hoping that their team can be the one to take it all.
I think that there will be plenty of thrilling moments during the game and I can’t wait to see how it unfolds. No matter who ends up winning, it’s sure to be an exciting night. There’s nothing quite like the NFL playoffs and I’m sure that this year’s playoff bracket will be full of epic moments.
