Just like we all expected, right? The San Francisco 49ers upset the Cowboys and the Packers on the road to punch their ticket to their second NFC Championship in three years, and the Los Angeles Rams defeated Tom Brady and the defending Super Bowl champions in Tampa Bay last week to secure their second appearance in this contest under head coach Sean McVay.
Can the 49ers continue their unexpected march to the Super Bowl or will Matthew Stafford get to play in his first Super Bowl?
