Baltimore Ravens 59
Buffalo Bills 24
BUFFALO - The #6 Baltimore Ravens bullied their way through the #2 Buffalo Bills 59-24 to book their seat into Super Bowl LVIII.
After an early interception, Jalen Hurts exploded for 454 passing yards to go with three TDs while rookie phenom Bijan Robinson rushed for 159 yards and scored five total TDs (four rushing).
"The defense won't get the credit they deserve," Hurts said. "But Roquan (Smith) and the guys were shutting them down - It made it easy for us to go play with no fear."
In one of the most impressive 3GML playoff efforts of all time, this Ravens team now looks to etch their name in the record books against either the San Francisco 49ers or Green Bay Packers.
"We are just happy to be there," Robinson said. "Both of those teams are very strong, so it should be a good matchup either way."
Green Bay Packers 42
San Francisco 49ers 17
SANTA CLARA - The Green Bay Packers number one offense outlasted the top rated defense belonging to San Francisco, and punched their ticket to Super Bowl LVIII.
The Packers scored on the second play of the game when Isaiah Pacheco ran 63 yards for the opening points. From there, they led the rest of the way. San Francisco's defense kept things tight well into the third quarter, but their offense couldn't sustain drives, and eventually the unit ran out of gas.
For the 49ers, the loss stings as it marks the end of a promising season where they saw the team capture a 15-2 record and the number one overall seed. They invested multiple assets in a title run and now face some tough financial decisions this off season. However, they look to be set at quarterback as Jordan Love cemented himself as "the guy." That alone should keep San Francisco in the hunt for years to come.
For Green Bay, the win gets them back into the Super Bowl for the first time in three years.
"Ready to keep this bus rolling," said Amon Ra St. Brown. "We know we have a tough test ahead. Going to enjoy this one and then get to work."
The Packers will take on the Baltimore Ravens in Las Vegas where they will try to capture GM SD his 4th title.
