"The gang goes to the superbowl......again!"

Hate it if you like, but this is going to be a legitimately good game. The last time they played Jalen nearly won it by himself, and this time, they have some actual offensive firepower.

Whether or not it can hold up to the Chiefs' D line is another matter entirely. You may be able to slow down Chris Jones, but then you have to have a plan for Furious George too. And if you slow down George, then you have to have a plan for Nick Bolton too.

Its going to be a crazy matchup. I don't know how literally any team gameplans against Eagles O-Line plus Saquan. That combo just shreds defenses and makes them look silly. That said, if anyone can do it, it would be Andy and Spags.

I've said all season the Chiefs have a way of dragging you down in the mud with them, confident that they are just slightly better than you are at being a dirty pig. People on here just seem to bitch about refball but that is a whiny and pointless take.

The only thing you can really say about the Eagles was that it took them way too long to get their coaching squared away. Once they did that, they dominated.

I've watched this Chiefs team for far too long and only really get nervous when they're down three touchdowns. They did a great job handling Derrick Henry, so that makes me optimistic about the RB matchup, but in the last Super Bowl they played Jalen nearly won it by himself, so one can't really underestimate his ability to show up big when needed.

I think it's going to be fun.

Couldn't happen to a shittier fan base

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

Steelers fans would like a recount on that poll.

[–] PenguinMage@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

Both of them

Chiefs fan here, but I wish I could liquify the spite of jealous fans, put it in an IV bag, and inject it directly into my veins. Your hate makes it all so much more fun.

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh, this isn't jealousy. We're stuck watching teams with two of the worst fanbases in the country, as you've given such a lovely example of here.

It's not the teams: it's you. Fuck the Chiefs.

Like I said: Pour it on.

And even better, Patrick Mahomes is only 29. You might as well stop watching football for the next ten years if watching greatness bothers you so much.

Thank you for the enjoyable discussion. Have a great day, and enjoy the Super Bowl.
