NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION Super Bowl discussion thread (Poll)

[VectorPrime]

I don't really care who wins but I think it will be the Chiefs. 49ers may be better overall but its Mahomes. Its effectively the same thing as betting against Brady.

Brady lost to Eli twice.

Purdy is basically Eli here.

Where is this coming from?

Kansas City

I like the 49ers as a team…I always have. But I guess this is an unpopular sentiment…don’t want them to win because of the trophies. At end of the day…I don’t carewho is playing…I don't want anyone to tie or pass the Pats in number of Super Bowl wins.

What does it matter? If the chiefs win they may continue on to win 3 or 4 more the way their going then we lose in the goat team and goat qb departments.

Fast forward to after the game, does anyone here really envision another scenario other than Mahomes and Kelsey celebrating while confetti falls and Taylor Swift hugs her boyfriend as Jim Nantz congratulates the Chiefs?

Honestly it feels like there's literally zero chance of that not happening

 

[Pape]

That started already. Once they beat the Bills all the hot take GOAT talk has commenced again.

How could it not? Been to the last three of the last four super bowls, won two, going for back to back Lombardi trophies... 4 super bowls in 6 years vs Brady's 3 in five... does have one in the loss column though... Potentially three rings in 6 years as a starter vs Brady's 3 rings in his first 5 years as a starter... has multiple MVPs already... Brady has a real challenger for his crown... He's not there yet, but is climbing the ladder... God I hate him...

 

[VectorPrime]

Hmm isn't it George Kalfiskias(sp?) I know I botched his last name big time

No, the guy who missed 6 games because he was suspended for domestic violence, a Chiefs special. He’d have been their most prolific d-lineman if he had played all season.

Or Mr. Irrelevant wins.

Then Taylor Swift writes a new song about how she broke up with her boyfriend at the Super Bowl

They won't go away from McCaffrey. He's their team MVP. My fear is that Purdy throws picks. He is kind of hit or miss.

If the 49ers are smart, not stupid like Ivan, they take a page from the NE Pats 2018 AFCC.

KC won the toss and deferred. So, the Pats basically burned up the entire 1st quarter with 2 drives holding the ball for 12:33 scoring a TD on drive # 1. KC only had the ball for 1 drive worth 2:00 + minutes. Keep Mahomes on the bench. Mahomes is the real NFL MVP and the best player on the field and Purdy is no match for him. Try to keep the KC offense cold and the KC defense tired and depleted like a Tesla battery.

Secondly, whatever was successful for SF in the 1st half, be ready to abort it because the KC defense will take it it away.

 

[vicspats]

Hard for SF to beat Mahomes, Kelce , Goodell, the NFL media, and the refs all at once....the NFL as a business has billions riding on Mahomes overtaking Brady

Why would that be? What would that accomplish? Would that also mean that all the Patriots victories are tarnished? If the fix is in, it’s always been in. Means we’ve been rooting for a tv show instead of a sporting event.

Pats were about to do their opening drive AGAIN to go up 14-0 but Brady threw that absolutely horrific pick on the goal line. Ughh that was bad.

This whole thing is almost word for word the two decades old conspiracy that the NFL rigged it so the 2001 Pats would win the SB to honor 911.

 

[Steve102]

Chiefs. Travis Kelse game MVP. NFL gets its wish.

Exactly. I don’t believe games are fixed at all. I hope not at least lol… would feel pretty foolish to find out I ruined two tvs for a ruse !!!

Yep. Agreed this is the way to go. Everyone defers now but the play is to take the ball. Obviously can go three and out like the Ravens and it won't make any difference but keeping Mahomes off the field is the recipe for beating them

 

[signbabybrady]

Let's go 49ers.

I think they have a lot weapons that the Ravens didn't and they should do better vs the Chiefs defense.

But let's be honest this comes down to Mahomes and Purdy. We know what Mahomes is capable of can Purdy step up and stake his claim?

I'm not betting against Mahomes so I think Chiefs win.

 

[sb1]

I hope they call offensive offsides when the Chiefs offense is on the field.

I'm game for a Kermit meltdown in a Super Bowl lmao

 

[Guts]

Not necessarily this season. The Chiefs are struggling to score once their scripted plays are done they've been shutout. The key is if Purdy doesn't turn the ball over

 

[denverpatsfan]

We will be rooting for San Fran but if I had to bet I would take the Chefs and the points. Hard to pick against Mahomes.

 

[1960Pats]

I think the 49ers, just like the NFC, is overrated. I'll be surprised if the 49ers win.

Turnovers for sure, but I think the point stands that you can't spot these guys two touchdowns

The Ravens totally abandoning the running game with like, what was it three running plays on early downs? It's like they lost their freaking minds, that's not the way to win. Get a lead, make them play from behind
