I’m interested in seeing the top defense vs the top offense. Can’t stand Hill or Bosa so they cancel each other out, may the best team win.

Pro-Chiefs here. Have friends and family that are Chiefs fans, I don't find them annoying like a MN or IA team, and also Maholmes seems cool and, most importantly, Reid should absolutely get a ring.

I'd rather the Chiefs win.

Chiefs open as 1 point favorites. More importantly, the AFC 4.5 point favorites in the Pro Bowl.

Jimmy G's arm should be well rested. He will have have only thrown the ball 8 times in 3 weeks when the SB kicks off.

Chiefs are easy to root for. It'd be great to see Reid get one.

Should be a good game (of course when I say that it will probably be boring). KC during the season was worse in run defense than the Packers. Niners were #1 against the pass (17th against the rush). It will be interesting to see how they game plan Mahomes.
GO CHIEFS.

The Chiefs are among my top 5 teams and I hate San Fran so you know where I stand.

Eli was an average QB who has won more rings than most QB's. Good for him, seemed like a decent guy, despite his forced trade to NY.

Eli also has the highest contract earnings of all time.

Eli had two magical playoff runs that produced well beyond their respective regular seasons, not to mention overall production in his career. Cut down on turnovers, efficiency went way up. So he really put it together for two post seasons and led a NY team to SB titles. Agree with MD, good for him. But relatively unremarkable to have him out of the league. Hasn't felt like he's been in it for quite some time.

Quite the family history there. Eli and Peyton's dad Archie was a great college and a decent NFL QB (12 years?)

And now he can star in his own touring reality show "Eli's Eats" where he travels around America sampling local cuisine as a companion show to "Peyton's Places", cuz you know, ESPN and the NFL refuse to ever let go of their beloved Mannings.

Also, Eli was Phil Simms 2.0. Two incredibly mediocre Giants quarterbacks who lucked their way into two Super Bowls on the backs of two of the greatest pass rush defenses of all-time. Pretty startling how similar their situations were.
