Washington Commanders' 45-31 win over Detroit Lions gives franchise first NFC Championship Game berth since 1991 .

"We're not done yet," wide receiver Terry McLaurin says after the game.

The franchise's last Super Bowl title was in 1991 .

Washington will play either the Los Angeles Rams or Philadelphia Eagles in next week's championship game.

Players have talked since the spring about their bond, which was enhanced during the previous five games when they won each one either at the final second or on the last play from scrimmage. "We're heavy hitters, we're poised and we're confident," Wagner said. "We have a belief in one another that's not easily found." Meanwhile, Quinn wanted to stay focused in the moment and not get caught up in what Saturday 's win meant. "There will be a time to look back and reflect," Quinn said, "but I'm not there yet.".
