Chefs and Mahomes 3-peat?

Hurts and their defense get it done?

Thanks for getting the thread started - is there any way to edit the thread title to spell the team names correctly? The misspelling isn‘t good. But thanks for getting the game thread started almost 24 hours in advance!

Anyway, as I said who the who wins thread, I’m picking the Chiefs, simply because I find it damn near impossible to pick against Mahomes and the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, the Chiefs are extremely clutch and well coached and Mahomes always seems to make the big plays when necessary.
But I think the Eagles have the better overall team - Saquon could be the difference maker, the last time these teams faced in the Super Bowl the Chiefs had more rushing yards than the Eagles, thats very unlikely to happen this time with Saquon in the Eagles backfield, just how well the Chiefs can defend against Saquon is a big key. The Eagles D is also better than they were 2 years ago, Carter is a beast up front, the LB unit led by Baun is playing at a strong level and the secondary is better with Mitchell and DeJean back there. The Chiefs are very similar to how they were 2 years ago, although I think their receiving unit is better this year with Worthy, Hopkins and Hollywood out there - the matchup between the Chiefs receivers and the Eagles secondary is a big key as well IMO. Also worth noting is the Chiefs have a better kicking game - Butker is much more reliable than Elliott.

I think this game is pretty much a toss up, I think the Eagles are the better team but the Chiefs have the best QB and are very clutch. I could see this game going any number of ways, it’s likely it won’t be as high scoring as last time as both defenses have improved some since 2 years ago but you never know. Anyway, can’t wait for it, biggest sporting event of the year!!

Dude seriously? You don't get the references? I'm a NFL board noob so my opinion ain't much, but I like this for the game thread.

Xel I'm pretty sure it was a troll attempt, lol.. course it's Husker. Not really a shock the team names would be misspelled but the Roman numerals would be corerct.

I can't argue with the assessment much (in terms of who wins) but I'll be shocked if the score is over. KC has been struggling with the run a bit in the playoffs but they still boast a good run D throughout the season, and I think some of Philly's line is banged up. Meanwhile, Mahomes thrives against the blitz but the Eagles are one of the lowest blitzing teams in the league and still get pass pressure.

I think it's going to be a 20-19 type of game where everyone whines about it being a boring Super Bowl and we pan to Swift 591 times.

I have a feeling it'll be high scoring, and I think they'll hit the over in the 3rd qtr...but it's just a hunch....plus, it's indoors...meaning no cold weather, no swirling wind, no slippery field.
But we shall see.

Daughter woke me up with the traditional jumping knee drive to the lower torso/groin area.

It does not just happen on movies and TV.
