Who will meet in the conference championships? The Ink on Indy staff makes their selections of will battle it out for the chance to go to Super Bowl 50.
AFC Championship: Colts vs. Patriots. Just like during the Peyton Manning days, the Colts will have to overcome the New England Patriots to make it to the Super Bowl. Andrew Luck hasn’t fared well against the Pats in the playoffs so far…will this be the year?
NFC Championship: Going back to the well with the Packers and Seahawks. Many will likely count out the Packers without Jordy Nelson, but I don’t think that’s smart. Seattle is just a really good team. I don’t think Russell Wilson is as great as he’s made out to be, but their defense is legit, and they can wear teams down with “Beast Mode” Marshawn Lynch.
