With the Kansas City Chiefs one win from making it to the Super Bowl, the Washington Commanders could be in for quite a test if they beat the Philadelphia Eagle

The Commanders, who were 4-13 a year ago, a franchise of ill repute for a generation, are going to the NFC Championship Game next Sunday.

In a big NFL playoff game, there can be many key plays, and there often are, in fact. Sometimes, you can also point to a play that marked a significant game change. Such was the case Saturday night in the Commanders' 45-31 upset win over the Lions in Detroit.

The Commanders upset the Lions as underdogs, marking their first NFC Championship game in decades. The Lions faced disappointment despite a strong season.

The Washington Commanders defeated the NFC’s No. 1 seed, the Detroit Lions, 45-31, to advance to their first NFC Championship Game since 1992. The Commanders improve to 4-0 all-time in the playoffs against the Lions.
