One And Done: Both 1-Seeds Eliminated
(AP) -- The field is set for the conference championship games.
And both No. 1 seeds are done.
The trash-talking New York Jets delivered the latest stunner, upsetting Tom Brady and the New England Patriots 28-21 Sunday as Mark Sanchez threw three touchdown passes.
The Jets (13-5) will travel to Pittsburgh for their second straight AFC championship game, needing one more win to back up coach Rex Ryan's Super Bowl prediction. The Steelers (13-4) advanced Saturday with a 31-24 victory over Baltimore.
On the NFC side, it's a matchup of longtime rivals. Chicago (12-5) romped past under-.500 Seattle 35-24 at snowy Soldier Field on Sunday and will face Green Bay (12-6) next weekend for a trip to Dallas. The Packers knocked off the other top seed, routing Atlanta 48-21 on Saturday.
