Well that was a classic between two future Hall of Fame Quarterbacks. I’m sure there will be more in the future.
Certainly one of them. Great games - all four, even if the last one ended poorly because of incredibly flawed rules.
I think KC wins the Super Bowl
Heartbreak 💔
This is the best weekend in sports, hands down. The Conference Championship Games, and the Super Bowl tend to be anti-climactic.
This game tonight was, for all intents and purposes, The Super Bowl.
Depends. On the opening kickoff of OT, if the receiving team goes down and gets a touchdown or gives up a safety then the game is over. If they go down and get a field goal the the other team gets a possession.
That’s my pick for the Super Bowl: KC beats LA.
Not my first pick for the best matchup - the best matchup may have just happened - KC v the Bills.
Well, they HAD given up by then, LOL!
Now that Rodgers and Brady are out, I guess I am now a Mahomes Fan until the Chiefs are tossed. ;)

This week sucked!.......................
Not that it matters but I picked 2 right, Bengals and Rams.
As much as I was hoping the Bills would win, I couldn't help but think it was the same thing that happened to KC back in the 2018 playoffs. Kansas City and New England were tied after a crazy 4th quarter. NE won the toss in OT, and I knew the Chiefs would never get the ball.
I happen to have been in attendance at the famous six quarter game in Kansas City in ‘71 on Christmas Day. Also a divisional playoff and it lasted six quarters. Just playing quarter is not the answer, but I agree, the sudden death aspect places too much on the coin toss and not enough on the teams performance capabilities at the point of exhaustion.
I think we had a great weekend especially since outside of basketball, my lack-luster Jayhawks narrowly escaped defeat at the well playing K-State Wildcats showing the wonderful parity of the Big 12 BB programs once again.
I hate Apple spell check — rewords sentences for no reason.
I don’t know how the Bengals won or how the Packers lost. Just luck I guess. I took the Rams over the Bucs and my Chiefs won a thriller!
Packers had it all, week off, at home, frozen tundra, Snow and a warm weather team to beat on the road................
I found your picks on post #36, you’re right I screwed it up. It’s fixed in the spreadsheet and you’re now with the group tied for 17th.
ha ha, thanks
