Super Bowl week: around the NFL

I'm sticking with NFC and going 9ers, plus their record last year surely brings us all hope. That said it would be nice to see Reid win a ring. It'll be about 4am over here before I get to bed so lets just hope its a great game regardless of the result, last years was a stinker!

KC can not let the 49's get a lead on them like they have let other teams do during the playoffs. 49's defense is their strength as for an all rounded team I will go with KC with Reid and Spaggs as DC.


KC 24

49's 17

If Mahomes plays up to potential and Chiefs D can hold htat 9ers run game in check I'm going 35-24 Chiefs.

I am going kc

Let's go KC!

49ers are probably gonna win.

Kc 28-24

Thats why I'm going with the Chiefs. Mahomes is a difference maker and he showed that last 2 games and then some. Jimmy G is good, they wouldn't be in the game without him. But I don't see him as being that guy, if he was the Pats wouldn't have traded him. If it comes down to it, I go with the hot QB.

Rumor is that Belichick wanted to keep Jimmy G and Brady wanted him gone, ownership sided with Brady. The trade to the 49ers was probably Belichick wanting to help Jimmy G land in a more promising team (since the Browns were the main contender to get him that year).

Yeah that rumours done the rounds ever since. I can't help think it's a bit of a smokescreen. Knowing how Belichick seems to always get his way, I can't believe he let ownership overrule him.

To me it seems more like business sense all round. Brady looked like he'd do 3-4 more PB level seasons at that point and getting some capital for Jimmy instead of losing him to FA when Brady was still going to be around just made sense.

Did anyone else just see the skit with Gronk and Vernon Davis mentioning he retired??? Is Vernon done?

Absolute shock.

I couldn't have seen that coming after being retirement age and missing 12 games with a concussion last year.

/sarcasm.

Really, I hope you aren't surprised by this.
