Before the year started, I was ready to watch the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers duke it out for the Lombardi Trophy. The Steelers made the playoffs but them making it to the Superbowl is a longshot at best. After one of the worst years in modern history, here are the teams that pulled through and how I think the playoffs will shake out.
I like good upset, but I just can’t see any team stopping the Chiefs. They have the best QB, overall team, and coaching staff. The only team that can slow down this young dynasty are the Buccaneers led by the GOAT, QB Tom Brady. The Buccaneers have it going right now, and It’s hard to bet against Brady. In his first year, Brady led the Buccaneers into the playoffs for the first time since 2007 and has an excellent chance to lift the trophy at the end of the season. If Brady succeeds, it would be the first time that a team hosting the Super Bowl will also be on the field. Unfortunately, I don’t think they will outplay the Chiefs, but still cool to think about.
