In hindsight the Chiefs line was built on narrative. Mahomes, Kelce, Swifties and refs. The Eagles was built on analytics. Front four taking away non existent run 7 in coverage. Monster oline. Best running back. Weapons at receiver. The Chiefs had the fast kid and Travis Kelce's 800 yards. Bunch of pull it out of their *** wins.
In the end it's still a block and tackle game.
 
I have to to laugh at the headlines about it being touted on Drudge as "Worst Super Bowl in History". Not even close. The 55 - 10 thrashing the 49ers dealt to the Broncos in Super Bowl XXIV. I still remember how awful that game was.
 
We were talking about it last night too. Seattle put a serious beat down on Broncos. 49ers on Chargers in a game the Steelers shouod have been in. I think difference here was people expected a classic. But I think it was there for the reading. I never felt the Chiefs were that great. And I felt the best teams in the NFC were lights out better then AFC. I'm not sure if anyone could have given them a better fight. I mean Chiefs beat Bills who beat Ravens. They just couldn't block the 4 upfront. He was taking his drop and looking for an escape lane because no one was open. I think it said he was sacked t times. Felt like 15.
Anyhow 50 paid 128 on my bet. So I'll take it.
 
I di not bet on sports. Just to many things go wrong. That being said my cousin won 11k on last night's game.
He bet crazy stupid stuff.
Pm would be sacked 5+ times
Pm would throw a pick
Eagles win straight up.(not crazy)
Hurts would throw a td and run for a td.

Speaking of AFC vs NFC through the decades as it pertains to Super Bowl wins.

AFC dominance began in the 70’s with the Steelers, Raiders, Dolphins, Baltimore Colts, KC winning 8 of the 10 Super Bowls

The 80’s brought about NFC dominance with the 49ers, Chicago, Washington, NY Giants winning 7 out of 10 SB’s

NFC dominance spilled over in the 90’s with the addition of Dallas and GB being among Wash, SF, NY again repeating as SB winners in that decade…8 out of 10 won by the NFC.

The 2000’s brought the return of the AFC with NE, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis winning 7 SB that decade.

The 2010’s brought about a tie …the AFC and NFC with 5 Lombardis each.

The 2020’s so far a tie…the AFC and NFC with 3 each, but with the likes of Philly, Detroit, and the emergence of Washington, it may be the NFC’s turn again.
 
Worst Superbowl ever?
That's easy. Patriots versus the falcons circa 2013-2014?

Falcons up by like 8,000 points at halftime, and the Patriots come back under, shall we say "ideal", conditions in the second half and route the falcons. worst ******* game ever

Looking back, the Chiefs' success was driven by narrative—Mahomes, Kelce, Swifties, and ref talk—while the Eagles leaned on analytics. Dominant trenches, best RB, stacked WRs. But football still comes down to blocking and tackling, and the Chiefs just found ways to win.

Easy when the ball / call falls your way, more times than reality would except.
