I think this is one of the more interesting Super Bowl games in a while. i'm actually looking forward to watching it and i can't say i generally care about the game other than betting and if the Steelers are in it.

SF is probably more dominant overall and is running with a borderline legendary defense. the offense can control clock and Jimmy can do more than just game manage but seems to do whats asked of him.

KC has historic weapons on offense. To have 2 WR's that run 4.2, Sammy Watkins, Kelce and a QB like Mahomes is just silly. Its nearly impossible to run your normal stuff vs a team like that without getting exposed by some freak.

i'd guess KC will need to go with quick screens, swing passes, motion, reverses, RPO stuff with the flats/Kelce over middle keeping the D from being straight attacking qb all game. If they can do that and keep the SF d line from getting their timing down and playing slightly slower then KC eventually will have a chance down field. But if they try to drop back and do longer developing plays, i would assume SF feasts like they typically do. My guess is with KC having these weapons i'm leaning on it being a game that simply revolves around Mahomes making the right plays. If he can be smart with the ball, i'd always rather have the greatness that controls the ball than greatness that doesn't have the ball in their hands (SF D). Obviously fluke randomness and special teams always comes into play but if i'm betting, i'll probably roll with KC something like 28-24.

I hope it's a great game. And I even hope more that each quarter ends with an 8 and 0. Either team as it doesn't matter. Been doing boards for a couple of decades and I have never seen someone get two spots and both spots were drawn with the same numbers. They were drawn a couple of weeks ago and the NFC team is 8 and AFC is 0 for one square and the other square is exactly opposite. CRAZY!

Would love to see Mahomes get one as he seems like a real likeable fella and so damn fun to watch.

But think SF wins this one.

It's a solid matchup, I agree as well.

I think the 2 best assets you can have in football is the elite QB first and the dominant DLine who can get to the QB consistently rushing only 4 second. And we get to see the best at both directly competing against one another.


Not sure why, but i think the Chiefs win it somewhat easily, in the 10-14 point range. 31-17 sounds good. I just don't trust Jimmy G to get it done against Mahomes.

ML is +105 so not much juice there but if you like SF I'd parlay it with the under in Jimmy G passing yards or even better that he throws a pick. He throws 2-3 awful balls a game but they can do that and still win.

I don't care who wins as long as the first quarter ends at 28-10 and the final is 28-10

Assume everyone already knows the game will stream in 4k/HDR on the Fox App?

It's an upconvert, but should be interesting to check out and see how it compares to the nominal HD stream

How in the world do these teams still not understand how coin tosses work.

Dude for the Chiefs said he wanted to kick.

Mathieu had to jump in and save him.
