Chiefs are in. It's been a long time coming for KC fans (50 years to be exact), but it's well deserved.

Mahomes throws like a mlb player. His dad taught him well. When he throws on the run he reminds me of Jeter! I’m glad they are in, he deserves it.

I don't watch much baseball so that's interesting, Lemmie. He certainly is a generational talent. I guess the Madden curse is also no longer a thing. :)

So happy for KC, the team, and their long-suffering fans. 50 years!

Looks like you got it. Don't think Green Bay will pull off a second-half miracle.

It's the Superbowl match up I wanted. It should be a good one, too. I'm still backing KC for the win but either team is deserving so I don't have a strong favorite. In a way, a Niner win would at least water down the Patriots and Steelers claims to being alone at the top. The 50 year drought for KC is a reason to cheer for their win. Nice to not have the bloody Pat's in at least.

I'm a San Franciscan, but my head favors KC by a bit. I think San Francisco could win, but Patrick Mahomes is a wunderkind.

I might give the coaching advantage to the Niners. Reid is great, but I keep thinking Kyle Shanahan might have something stockpiled for the Superbowl. I think Garappalo, who has a $137 million dollar contract, is capable of more than the eight passes he threw today, but with Mostert running for 220 yards and 4 TDs, why show your hand? I think their offense should and will be capable of scoring more quickly against KC.

Anyway, a great passing attack against a great defensive line. Could be a very entertaining game.

Opening line has the Chiefs by 1½.
