AFC and NFC Championships – Best Players

QB Kurt Warner, Arizona Cardinals
The ageless wonder is headed to the Super Bowl. On his way, he’s making his fantasy football owners very happy. This week, Warner had 279 yards, four touchdowns and completed 21 of 28 passes. He also didn’t turn the ball over and was sacked just twice.

RB Willis McGahee, Baltimore Ravens
Though he wasn’t the starter for the Ravens much at all this season, Willis McGahee got the bulk of the carries in their most important game of the season. He finished with two touchdowns and 60 yards on the ground. But it wasn’t enough for the Ravens and McGahee didn’t get to finish the game as he got knocked out near the end of the game.

WR Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals
There’s no player who has risen his stock further during the playoffs than Larry Fitzgerald. He seems to have finally reached his vast potential and is putting up insane numbers. Against the Eagles, Fitzgerald had nine catches for 152 yards and three touchdowns.

TE Brent Celek, Philadelphia Eagles
Those who rolled the dice with Celek got paid off in a big way. The Philadelphia tight end finished with ten catches for ten catches for 83 yards and two touchdown grabs. Although the Eagles were eliminated, Celek could very well be draftable next season after proving his worth in the playoffs.
