SUPER BOWL LIX: Kansas City Chiefs over Los Angeles Rams in a down-to-the-wire, nail-biting, Reid/McVay chess match Classic!
Patrick Mahomes the game's MVP! KC will be the last undefeated team (8-0). Their first loss will actually be to Denver at home and, actually, get SWEPT by them due to their starters being out for the finale!

COTY: Dave Canales
ROTY: Caleb Williams (Bears will split with both Det & GB)
OPTY: Matthew Stafford
DPOTY: TJ Watt
MVP: Patrick Mahomes

I feel Andrews and Likely will be the first duo TEs to get over 1000 yards this year ... can Andrews stay healthy though?

I also wouldn't be surprised if the Bears and Packers split games.

And really, I wouldn't be surprised if both the Bills and Packers miss the playoffs. Maybe they'd be the last ones in with the expanded playoffs that we have now. I don't think either team is as good as last year.

I also wouldn't be surprised if Doug Pederson or Robert Saleh win Coach of the Year. Just a hunch.

Chiefs over Bills. Again. Ugh.

Chiefs over Texans
Lions over Packers

SB: Chiefs over Lions in a blowout but the Lions get a few garbage time TDs to make the score closer. Similar to Super Bowl 26. At some point in this game Dan Campbell makes a boneheaded play call or two.

Everyone acting like it’s a foregone conclusion KC threepeats

Mahomes isn’t THAT good

Chiefs have a great chance but not much depth at the RB position.
Can the rookie at left tackle hold up?

Can a new QB finally emerge and help a team dethrone the Chiefs? What impact will the rookie QBs have? Is this Prescott's last season in Dallas?

Though I don't believe the York family or Shanahan will ever win a championship, let's hope Brock Purdy can stay healthy and get a contract he deserves next year. The money he is making this year is beyond ridiculous. If any 49er should have held out, it was him. If he had a major injury, would they still pay him? Could he have challenged the rookie pay scale provision of the CBA?

Thinking about tuning in more to the Jon Gruden channel on YouTube.

I wouldn't necessarily bet on this happening, but I wouldn't be surprised if Trey Lance gets some opportunity to start this season. At least a chance to play and prove himself, let me put it that way.

Batschidt Crazy Prediction ... Regardless of his year in Cleveland, could Watson audition for the Cowboys QB job in 2025? A strong performance and win against Dallas in Cleveland, might get a rise from Jones, but we will see.* The Cowboys will start a rookie at CB in Carson* and Diggs will be challenged as well; especially by Amari Cooper ...

*ESPN NFL has a good depth chart section which will interest fans and gamblers and many rookies will start--and be exposed--in early games ...

*Of course the Browns may still retain Watson but I am confident by seasons end, they will underperform and may just cut him loose.
