NFL Playoff Schedule 2015: TV Coverage, Live Stream Options for Sunday Matchups

Welcome to the second-biggest day of the entire NFL season. No, the Pro Bowl isn't taking place yet, silly, but the NFC and AFC Championship Games will finally settle which teams play in the Super Bowl.

The first matchup pits the Green Bay Packers against the Seattle Seahawks. Though they started off the season against one another, the two teams have changed drastically over the 16 games since.

Back on the East Coast, the New England Patriots will host the Indianapolis Colts. Much like the NFC battle, the two AFC teams faced off earlier this year, but this time, it will be in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Prior to both games kicking off, here's a full look at the viewing info and breakdown of Sunday's games.

Championship Weekend Breakdown

Over the last decade-plus, no quarterback has been more synonymous with postseason success than Tom Brady. However, his performance late in the playoffs has been a bit lackluster.

During the first three of his five Super Bowl appearances, Brady helped lead the team to a 3-0 record in the big game. In his last two appearances, the Patriots have gone 0-2, with both losses coming at the hands of the New York Giants.

Scott Kacsmar of Football Outsiders notes his mediocre results in AFC Championship Games recently:

This season, Brady has a full repertoire of receivers, including a healthy Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, Brandon LaFell and a resurgent Danny Amendola. Facing off with Andrew Luck, who took down Peyton Manning to get here, the Patriots will have their hands full Sunday night.

Another quarterback who's enjoyed postseason glory during his career is Aaron Rodgers. The Packers signal-caller suffered a calf injury in the season finale against the Detroit Lions.

One player who's preparing for Rodgers at full strength is Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor, via Stephen Cohen of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer:

"

I’m not really concerned with his hobbly, wobbly calf or whatever. I’m concerned about Aaron Rodgers.  If he’s in that game — no matter how he’s feeling — he’s still Aaron Rodgers. He’s capable of making plays, capable of getting the ball downfield, getting it to his receivers, just running their offense; so you’ve got to respect a guys like that.

"

In order for Rodgers to continue his one-legged race, he'll have to get past a difficult Seahawks team along with the 12th Man. Thanks to earning the No. 1 seed, Seattle will play host to a fourth playoff game in the last two seasons.

As ESPN Stats & Info notes, taking down the Hawks on the road is nearly impossible in the postseason:

If any team looks the most likely to end that streak, it would be Green Bay and Rodgers' plethora of offensive weapons. Ironically enough, it would be the ultimate exclamation point on a season that started with the Packers getting dismantled to kick things off.
