Sunday Sports Update
Top left: Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Jalen Mills celebrates after his team made a goal-line stand late in their NFC Divisional Playoff game against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. A pass from Matt Ryan intended for Julio Jones on 4th and goal would have given the Falcons the lead, but the Eagles held on for a 15-10 victory. Their reward? Hosting next week's NFC Championship game. They'll take on either the New Orleans Saints or Minnesota Vikings, who play each other this afternoon. Photo by philadelphiaeagles.com

Tom Brady threw for 337 yards and three touchdowns as the New England Patriots defeated the Tennessee Titans 35-14. The Patriots now await the winner of today's game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Photo by USA Today

Oklahoma freshman Trae Young, whose three-point shooting is drawing comparisons to Stephen Curry, is averaging 30.1 points and 9.9 assists per game. On Saturday, Young went 10-for-18 from beyond the arc and finished with 43 points, 11 rebounds, and seven assists in the Sooners' 102-97 overtime victory over TCU. Photo by USA Today
