Trying to get my kid to buy in. He refuses to wear my ~25 year old, tore up, Dale Carter jersey. I guess I'll have to!My dad raised me a huge KC fan so I'm leaving early tomorrow morning to go watch the game with my parents. Did the same thing last year and it was pretty special -- hoping for a repeat. Go Chiefs!
I’m with you there buddy. TB gets vita vea back as KC loses their starting tackle. Bucs defense will be the x factor.Don't need no stinking points. TB +135.
Well my big square is 4 & 4 and 34-24 sounds too high. I think the game may be played tight.14, jabarony?
My son rolled into town late last night, I ran out to the store this morning to get some more party supplies(beer n wings) for tonight. To watch the Bucs with my family today and have the Super Bowl party here in my house, I never thought this would happen. Very surreal experience.My dad raised me a huge KC fan so I'm leaving early tomorrow morning to go watch the game with my parents.

I also think KC will do a better job scheming away from it. Tampa's DL has been playing really well down the stretch though. This is the key matchup without Fisher.Chiefs O-line issues concern me,but I think Mahomes is athletic enough to overcome any pressure.
I cannot tell a lie, one of the first games I was thinking of was the horrific Sea/Den Super Bowl, something like 43-8 and I don't think I even watched a second of the 2nd Half. But this is a horse of a different color and Seattle had a bruising defense, Manning also seemed helpless, hard to see that happening to Brady tonight. The story is more about Mahomes and if the Bucs can bring the heat off the Tackle spots where they are missing starters. The flip side is teh Bucs defense has some serious playmakers.The Chiefs have a different gear which they started to show against Cle before Mahomes got hurt and again vs Buffalo. They bring that today and it might not be close.
Montana '89 vs CinciI'm taking Bucs 33-32.
It's a Brady Bowl, so it's going to come down to the last 2 minute drive.
Just saying if it plays out that way, I may not be alive tomorrow morning. My hearts already pounding and I've already been pacing thru my house for 3 hours...Montana '89 vs Cinci
The Chiefs defense was absolutely horrible in 2018. That was when they fired Bob Sutton and hired Spagnoulo prior to 2019. It took them about 9 weeks last year to start coming together.I cannot tell a lie, one of the first games I was thinking of was the horrific Sea/Den Super Bowl, something like 43-8 and I don't think I even watched a second of the 2nd Half.

Wildcard tonight is starting to take shape...I dislike him honestly but Antonio Brown seems like he is going to be able to play and Brady loves him as a swiss army gadget that can do many things, going to be difficult to cover Godwin-Evans-Brown-Brate-Gronk-RoJo, and then Fournette maybe gashing a few runs, the Bucs are prepared to score 30-40 if need be. I thought the Chiefs defense looked better in '18 and '19 but they are not terrible by any stretch. Chiefs have a lot of playmakers on defense, Honey Badger being just one of them.
Hoping for a great game tonight.
I disagree with virtually every point. But that’s why it’s an opinion and makes the game great to watchBucs 34-17. When the chiefs show they can stop the run I'll pick them, but with the way Bucs O-line, Ronald Jones and L. Fournette have been playing, I don't see how the chiefs offense sess the field. Think about what these Road Warriors have done - winning in GB in Jan in a Championship game - that's happened, what, like 3 times in Packers history that they've lost a playoff game at home? They've beaten the 'Aints - a team that beat them badly 2x in regular season.
take the under, it's a defensive battle. Bucs are Road Warriors, remind me of 2007 Giants. And Bucs have chosen to use their road white jerseys. it's no wonder why.
chiefs seem to be a bit smug, almost arrogant. how many teams going to back2back SBs have actually won both?
to me, this has the feeling of a game where the chiefs get punched in the mouth. I think they're drinking the 'we're a dynasty' kool-aid
we'll see.
We thought were we going to get rain today in Tampa all week leading up....it’s spectacular instead...70 degrees and not a cloud in sight. Hope that’s thru the game.Snowing outside now in KC. Has no bearing on the game - just thought you all should know.
Yeah, I’ve been watching the pregame on espn. Looks awesome there.We thought were we going to get rain today in Tampa all week leading up....it’s spectacular instead...70 degrees and not a cloud in sight. Hope that’s thru the game.
Me too. But I think there are two things that make that scenario different.I cannot tell a lie, one of the first games I was thinking of was the horrific Sea/Den Super Bowl, something like 43-8 and I don't think I even watched a second of the 2nd Half.
Freaking beautiful day for a patio Super Bucs party.We thought were we going to get rain today in Tampa all week leading up....it’s spectacular instead...70 degrees and not a cloud in sight. Hope that’s thru the game.
Mahomes will be the difference. He is the best player in the league and will show us all why again tonight.
This!This game is just so fascinating in that I can make a serious case for either team to win and both in a variety of ways.
Weather seems to be a non factorWe thought were we going to get rain today in Tampa all week leading up....it’s spectacular instead...70 degrees and not a cloud in sight. Hope that’s thru the game.
Happy for you and all Bucs fans. Snowing here in New England. Feels like I should be cheering on Pats in Super Bowl. Go Brady, Gronk, and Bucs!My son rolled into town late last night, I ran out to the store this morning to get some more party supplies(beer n wings) for tonight.

Crock of chili here. The key is moderation. Can’t have too much chili or else a coma can occur.9:30am: 1st pretzel roll and a cold beer, wanted to set the pace for the rest of the family.
Noon: Hit Tiki 52 which is mostly an outdoor dock for charting boats, walk the kid thru with his Brady Bucs jersey, lot of closet Bucs fans it seems. They have Sam Adams' Cold Snap to boot so this was a no brainer even with an overcast sky.
3:00pm: And we are ready to roll, beers, tequila(Clase Azul), 50 chix wings mixed in Frank's, Italian Subs/Hoagies, peanut butter cookies with ghiradelli choc chips...
They keep telling me to take a nap before the game but I just can't see it happening at this point. I'm gonna need some serious gas if the Bucs pull this off tonight. I've got the controls right now, blasting Prince's 1999 Vinyl release on 4 EPs right now...
GO BUCS!!!
They both looked like Schroeder!When did Billy Idol start looking like Ricky Schroder?
Miley did? I missed it. I thought she was cute... though I am a dirty old man saying this.They both looked like Schroeder!
Now you get a second view.Miley did? I missed it. I thought she was cute... though I am a dirty old man saying this.
She should be laid to rest in a guitar shaped casket made of rosewood with a fretboard attached so she doesn't get too bored in the afterlife.Joan Jett still rocks.
Miley Cyrus is strange.
