Who wins the Super Bowl?

If you score and convert 4 times, then you can win with a fg vs 5 tds??
I don't think I care to have the is it easier to score 5 TD's with successful extra points versus score 4 TD''s with 2 point coversions and a field goal (or safety) strategy with you. I think both are low.

There was probably a time consideration there as well. Winning was extremely unlikely at that point anyway, but by the time they scored, it was getting iffy that they could even get that many possessions, so the strategy that theoretically required fewer touchdowns to come back probably made sense for maximizing whatever chance they had left.
 
That’s only like the third blowout we’ve had in the Super Bowl since the 2000 Ravens win.

Not quite Seahawks/Broncos cause of the late TDs Mahomes added but still dominant.
 
Last spread I saw was 1.5 points the Chiefs were favored by. If I was betting, I'd bet the Eagles either with the points or the money line. Think their offense is a bit more diverse and capable of controlling the LOS. Both defenses are solid but I would favor the Eagles slightly. Of course, KC hasn't lost a close game in a million years and I expect the SB to be a close game. But, would still bet Philly and expect them to win outright.

Other questions to ponder:
Who does the TV coverage show more often: Trump or Taylor?
Does the TV coverage show Bradley Cooper at least half as many times as Taylor?
Will the halftime show garner the usual 'WORST halftime ever' comments followed by 'You just don't know any music made after 1989, you old fart'?
Will the broadcast last more than 4 hours and 15 minutes (not counting post game)?
During the game, including halftime, will there be more or fewer than 10 talking heads telling us what we just saw or will see?
The defensive line dominated the game, and made Patrick Mahommes look like Brock Vandgriff for most of the game. Same thing the Giants did to Tom Brady a few super bowls ago. NIL $$$ for pass rushers is a must for UK.
 
Guarantee you that Brady is the happiest guy there.
I'm hearing that this AM but OTOH I can't recall Brady ever having to face a pass rush like Mahomes had in his face last night. What's crazy is Mahomes is probably the most skilled QB in the league at avoiding the rush, OTOH Brady was just a statue back there most of the time and always had great protection. Bottom line if Mahomes got sacked 5 times, how many times hypothetically would Brady have been sacked in that game? could have been double digits.

All I’m saying is that Brady likes attention and slept well last night. I loathe Brady and the Cheatriots, but he no doubt did not want to see a threepeat and slept well. Some seem to think I’m a Brady fan because i said he wanted KC to lose. No.

Brady's bread and butter was throwing the quick, underneath stuff so he didn't get hit very often. Probably wouldn't have moved the ball much more effectively last night, but doubtful he'd gotten hit/sacked as often, either.

Not sure why the Chiefs threw so much early. They ran effectively in previous games and didn't call but one running play in their first 3 series. Didn't understand what they were trying to do from the outset. Also, seemed like they favored longer route trees from the get go even when it became apparent that the Eagles front 4 was going to be a huge problem. Didn't understand that, either. Did Chiefs OC have Hamdan on the headset?

I don't know....

Michael Strahan
Umenyora was better than Strahan at this point
Justin Tuck

Antonio Pierce was LB

Steve Spagnolia was the genuis behind this D...same guy behind Chiefs D.

I'd argue the Giants D may have been better than Eagles D (and for sure Bucs D the last time Chiefs got blasted in super bowl)
