So the Chiefs are obviously the SB favorites. (Whoever won that game would have been.) It'll be a moral victory for the Bengals just to keep it close. They're playing with house money and absolutely no one of any sort of repute predicted they'd be here. No one.

Rams are the next most talented team remaining, but the sum of the parts doesn't always add up so well. The 49ers have beaten the both times this year and just seem to have their number in general.

We might be looking at a KC/SF Super Bowl rematch.

Looked this up out of curiousity. Would have been nice to throw $100 on the Bengals before the season.

[Prock]

I’d be fine with any of these teams winning. I’d wager on the Chiefs but Burrow winning one in year two would be the most fun story IMO.

Chris Jones is going to have a really good day.

Also, the ticket prices for that game are something.

That feels like a blow out

Probably. Though San Fran's defense has weirdly come together over the second half of the season. Early in the season, they looked very discombobulated. Great pieces like Bosa and Warner were there, but they just weren't playing well, missing Saleh I guess. But Ryans has emerged as a HC candidate for a very good reason.

While I think the Chiefs would definitely win, I don't think they'd go out and put up 40 points unless Jimmy G started just giving it up.

Think it's going to be KC/LAR and McVay gets his first.

Gimme Rams Bengals plz

[Prock]

It's incredible how the elite young QBs have consolidated in the AFC. The playoffs are going to be a blood bath every year.

[Brodie]

The 49ers saw both Deebo and Trent Williams pretty beat up, so if they aren't fully healthy then they're kinda fucked. Rams could probably use Whitworth but they mitigated his absence yesterday.

Ultimately if Stafford can avoid mistakes again and they stop force feeding Cam Akers, the Rams will be fine.

Go Chiefies

[DallasM]

Gimme 49ers Bengals, so we can get 10000 flashbacks of Boomer/Montana.

Rams/Bengals will be more McVay tree talk (but probably the most fun game), Rams/Chiefs might be pretty fun to see as a whole, and 49ers/Chiefs will just be LIV but with arguably worse versions of both teams.

This is what I’m thinking too

Yea I talked about this wild card weekend but it’s pretty crazy. The AFC has Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, and then Lamar & Herbert who missed the playoffs this year. If we get all 5 of them in it next year that might be the only way we could top this past weekend of football.

If Deshaun Watson wasn’t such a piece of shit he’d be in there too which would really round it out to an insane playoff field. Meanwhile once Brady & Rodgers are gone all the NFC has is maybe Kyler, Dak, Lance, and Fields. Who knows with any of those guys though.

Jury is still out but he’s the closest thing to a young exciting QB in the NFC. During the regular season at least lol

[RaiderNation]

Chiefs vs Rams Super Bowl has a good ring to it. I’ll be rooting for the Bengals though

[nepg]

The last time the Chiefs and Rams played was something.

[Fernando]

Maybe this time Reid's sons won't kill anyone.
