The Panthers and Cardinals haven"t played each other since last season"s wild-cardround. Next for both is a playoff rematch, this time as the NFC"s top teams on championship weekend.
Carolinawill faceCarson Palmer, who was injured weeks before last year"s 27-16 Panthers win and finished fourth in Sporting News" Offensive Player of the Year voting for the 2015 season. His goal will be to out-duel the winner of that award, Cam Newton.
In the AFC, the Patriots will go on the road to face the Broncos. You know what that means: Brady vs. Manning, for the 17th timeand maybe the last chapter in arguably the greatest quarterback rivalry in NFL history.
