The Super Bowl has finally arrived! The Kansas City Chiefs are back in the Super Bowl for the fourth time in the last five years. The San Francisco 49ers are back in the Super Bowl for the first time since 2019 when they lost to Kansas City. These two teams are arguably the best teams over the last five seasons. The 49ers are favored by 2.5 points but the Chiefs, as an underdog? Hard not to pass that opportunity up. The Chiefs love being considered the underdog, as they have all postseason long.
Super Bowl 58
Sunday 2/11 ; 6:30PM EST
San Francisco 49ers (12-5) vs. Kansas City Chiefs (11-6)
Patrick Mahomes is fighting for his 3rd ring while Brock Purdy is battling for his first (6th overall for 49ers). This is a battle for the ages, a game that will come down to inches. An unsung hero will be remembered for a Super Bowl winning play. The Niners have quite an overrated defense. They have been exposed in both playoff games (particularly the secondary) and the offense came to save the day. That will not fly against Mahomes, Reid, and the Chiefs. I do not expect Mahomes and the passing game to struggle much, with an explosive run game led by Pacheco, it keeps San Francisco off-balance. The Chiefs will hold a lead for most of the game, the Niners will make it close, but at the end Kansas City will prevail and win back-to-back Super Bowls.
Prediction - Chiefs: 33 49ers: 28
