Mahomes has proven he is a magician. I'll be pulling for the Eagles and Jalen Hurts.

I think they will be surprised. They got Barkley and they think they are contenders.
We will see who knows how to win a Superbowl.

Then…

Both teams play outstanding defense. Call it a push.

KC has a better quarterback. Philly has a better run game. Both teams have good special teams units. I would give Philly a slight edge because I think their offensive line will stack up better against the Chiefs pass rush than the reverse. But it's really, really close. These teams played two years ago and it was a close run thing right to the end, and I expect the same next Sunday. There is one thing: Vic Fangio, Philadelphia's defensive coordinator (and one of the best in the business) has never beaten Mahomes. Chiefs have the voodoo. I will not pick against Mahomes at this time of year.

On local news this morning that the phrase 3peat is actually trademarked by some basketball player or coach back in the eighties. Saying it is allowed-apparently-but printing it on like a tee shirt or whatever is violation of the trademark. Haven’t heard of any lawsuits though.
