Football Nation proudly presents a Championship edition of Monday Morning Huddle with host Dave Holcomb. On this week's show, the host dissects the important factors of the Broncos' and Seahawks' victories in their respective conference championship games. First, Seattle sticks to its running game plan and comes back to defeat San Francisco 23-17. Running back Marshawn Lynch had a big impact rushing for over 100 yards, but the referees questionable calls certainly didn't hurt Seattle in most cases. For New England, they did not get any running game going on Sunday and virtually had no offense to speak of through the first three quarters. A near perfect game from Peyton Manning put Denver in its seventh Super Bowl. What does the results of the AFC Championship mean for Manning and Tom Brady's legacies? That, along with why Championship Sunday is better than Super Bowl Sunday and Richard Sherman's post game interview are debated in the 'Fourth and Long' segment.
