2016 NFL playoff schedule: Arizona Cardinals headed to Carolina, conference championships set

The Arizona Cardinals now know their next opponent. The Carolina Panthers defeated the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday 31-24 to advance to the NFC Championship Game and they will host the Cardinals, who knocked off the Green Bay Packers 26-20 in overtime on Saturday.

The world will also be treated to one more Brady vs. Manning duel. Manning led a 13-play, 65-yard drive in the fourth quarter to rally from a point down to get a 20-13 win over the short-handed Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. That, combined with the 27-20 win by the New England Patriots over the Kansas City Chiefs, means Tom Brady and Peyton Manning will play one another for the chance to get to another Super Bowl.
