Super Bowl!

 



It's here.  It's finally here.  The Super Bowl.  Now we will have to see who will win after a Covid filled season like this one.  It's even amazing that there was a full NFL season at all.  Just count your blessings.  Now, let's get to discussing the game itself.

The ESPN FPI has this as their prediction:


This shows that Kansas City has a 52.1% chance of winning this match-up.  It seems to be a more even match since Tampa Bay is playing at home and Tom Brady seems to just not age.  We will have to see then if it really is an even match up.  Typically, Super Bowls involving Tom Brady do seem to have a close score.  The Super Bowl with his biggest points margin was against the Rams in Super Bowl 53 and that was just by 10 points.  The Chiefs and Buccaneers already played in the season in Tampa Bay and the Chiefs only won by 3 points.  This game will probably be similar as well, given the even match-up prediction from ESPN.  Also, Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is still suffering from turf toe from a few weeks ago.  I don't know if that will really affect his game since he still played with turf toe against the Bills in the AFC Championship and they dominated on offense.  But, I see this as a close game and could potentially be a shoot out between bot QBs.  But of course, we could just have the Chiefs dominate the Buccaneers by 40 points and Tom Brady could retire then maybe.  I mean 7 rings for Tom Brady.  Sounds an awful lot like Tom Riddle with 7 Horcruxes (get my Harry Potter reference?).

Ok before we watch the game with our yummy chicken wings and Coca-Cola or Root Beer or whatever beverage and before the funny commercials, if they're even funny this year, let's make the final prediction.  I was 1-1 for Championship weekend which brings my total for the NFL season 71-39 (64.54%).  I guess not too bad. Now I will choose for the Super Bowl is.................................................


Chiefs.

Let's go!

See you later nerds...
