We are used to seeing the Chiefs be underdogs in these situations (everyone is always picking against them) so it's weird that everyone is talking about the 3 peat as a foregone conclusion. But to be honest, that kind of stuff just doesn't phase Mahomes. He knows exactly what needs to happen.
My biggest concern is the Eagles seem to have the advantage in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

At the same time, Reid/Spags/Mahomes have had 2 weeks to prep so hopefully they know what to do if their respective lines aren't being effective.

Rooting for the Chiefs, but I think the Eagles pull it off.

Will also be looking fwd to seeing some rare bangers become available if the Chiefs win.

KC is the favorite - albeit a slim one. That aside, the players are probably telling each other the same usual "no one believes in us!" routine like all athletes do.

Yeah I agree. I think you're going to see a ton of quick passes. Nothing worse than when Mahomes is getting pressured every pass. I suspect a heavy dose of quick passes and quick hitters to Xavier Worthy and Hollywood. It'll be fun to see what they come up with.

I will not be surprised once again to see the Chiefs in a half-time deficit while they make their half-time adjustments. Should be fun!

Is the Eagles O-line that good? Saw a stat that the interior OL gives up a lot of pressure. They're about to face the baddest pass-rushing DT group in the league.

Also, I don't know who needs to hear this but many, many great running teams have thought they could beat KC with the run game and it very, very rarely works out for them. KC D is great against the run and particularly excels at getting those critical 2 yds or less stops on 1st down that force you into passing downs.

I know Detroit had one of the best O-Lines but I think Philly was right up there.

It'll be interesting to see if KC can stop the Tush Push. They did it against the Bills but the Eagles seem to do it better than anyone in the league.

I do think Saquon needs to have a solid game (more than 125 yards) for the Eagles to win.

You've got it wrong. It is the Chiefs who wear Tay-Tay red.

As long as the Chiefs win I could care less about seeing Taylor on tv. Can't stand it during the regular season, but this is for all the marbles. The circus has come to town.

You don’t need her there. They cry over the game itself.

Whatever it takes to get that W works for me! Mahomes absolutely flourishes when the odds are against him.

As long as they are down by exactly 10 points, they should be fine!

Not at all, she's not ugly but her face just doesn't do it for me.

C'mon guys, we can do better than that. Leave the attractiveness levels of celebs and athletes to joobs.

GO CHIEFS! Heading down to KC tomorrow for an event for my daughter. Going to check out the Super Bowl stuff at union station, etc. Just in time to come back to Iowa to watch the game Sunday. Enjoy the ride, boys!

I love the hype surrounding this game!

It's fun to scroll over to eBay and then search for 2017 Mahomes rookie autos and see how many are flying off the shelf.

FOMO is absolutely real! Prices keep going up up UP!

My unopened pick up. Just came in the mail. This makes three of the donruss unopened in my stash. Very happy and got it for a good price.

I have my eyes on some other boxes if the Chiefs win, I'll be hitting the BIN button at the end of the game.
