AFC Champion: Chiefs
Well, it’s looking like Chiefs against the Patriots, again. The game could be in Kansas City again but this time with a different result.
The Browns seem to be the sexy pick but give them a year or two before we take them seriously for winning anything of consequence. Still, the Browns could give the Chiefs a nice game in the playoffs.
Super Bowl: Rams vs Chiefs
Super Bowl MVP: Patrick Mahomes
We get the rematch from last year’s shootout in Los Angeles. The Rams won that won 54-51. Don’t expect nearly a shootout like that but certainly it will be a game many will be anticipating.
Hopefully we are only a season or two away from the Cardinals being in this position with their quarterback in Kyler Murray. For now, the class of the NFL still resides in Kansas City and Los Angeles.
