Welcome back episode 137 of Chaotically Intolerant. It's Super Bowl week. This, we're out of the dark week, I would say. And this was, you were telling me about the dark week.

The last time they had one to do that. So we were going through a little history lesson. So the last time they actually officially did not have a dark week was John Lynch, who's now 49ers GM, was part of the Fox in 2002, that 2002 season. They had tried to put the dark week in 2001, but as everyone sure knows, you had 9-11.

So everything, so what happened was week two of that season, it was gonna be week two, got pushed back to week 17. They just moved everything, they just kept everything else on schedule. They moved the playoffs back a week. They got rid of the dark week. Got us talking, we were talking about how, of course, the first game after 9-11 that year, which was, would have been week three, but was week two. Bledsoe gets hurt, Jets injuring him, Oluwes hits Bledsoe, football's never the same. But I'm always fascinated, because I actually-

thing to happen in New York. I already used that joke before but I have to use it on the air. And I was in high school and I had tickets to go visit my cousin in St. Louis and we were going to see the Rams. It was their home opener and remember that year the Rams went to the Super Bowl. They were the greatest show on turf. Warner was the

Michael Vick had just gotten drafted by Atlanta. They were playing Atlanta. But I don't know if he would have played because he wasn't starting at that point in the season. That was that long ago? That long ago. It was 0-1. He was the first pick in the draft. And I always think about the Patriots then because they lost their opening game that year and the Carolina Panthers won their opening game. They were scheduled to face each other in Week 2. The Panthers might've been favored in that game. The Panthers ended up losing their last 15

and then blood so gets hurt. They end up playing week 17 of that season in front of an empty stadium basically. The Patriots kick the crap out of the Panthers.

Carolina goes to 1 in 15. They bring in John Fox. They draft Julius peppers They're in the Super Bowl against them in a couple years later, but I always wonder that week They got moved back people don't ever think about the whole they have Seasons yeah, they have that segment Dave Demishak had that the NFL right the what that What if like New England had lost that game would you know, they fall to own to they lose to Carolina?

Would Belichick have been like, all right, I'm just benching blood so Brady already been like, I'm gonna ride this out. Then blood so never get hurt. Maybe Brady comes in, but it's too

Who knows that one game, you know that one week and then one thing that happens in the whole Well the if thing also tops did a they ran a campaign for if Brady went to baseball Who they did that this year if he got drafted by the expo or if he went to the Expos because he was drafted and they Did the like everyone in Montreal sitting in a bar with Brady stuff all over but all Expos colored and they're like

home or however many touchdowns he had but in home runs and they did like seven World Series and then Eli was he played for the San Francisco Giants which didn't make sense to me because I was like well they're both in the National League at the time right that doesn't make

Because Eli obviously beat Brady in two Super Bowls. So if anything, he would have had to go play for another New York team. He would have had to play for the Yankees. For an American league team. Yeah, or just an American league team. But obviously, the Giants. I think it would fit better if he played for the Yankees, in my opinion. Yeah. Yeah, Brady grew up a San Francisco Giants fan. Mm-hm. Because he's from the Bay Area.

He was an 18th round pick. How many 18th round? Baseball's weird though. Mike Piazza was a second, 63rd round. He's a Hall of Famer. And of course Brady was a six round pick in football. He won more Super Bowls than the round he was drafted in. Yeah, I'm looking up. Yeah, Mookie Betts was a fifth rounder. Yeah. I mean, the drafters doesn't matter. It does. I mean, there's a lot of, you know, there's probably more busts at number one overall.

They try to every year they try to make the baseball draft a thing. I get notifications all the time They're like we're getting ready for the draft. I'm like Right. I don't care like I'll see you the Red Sox draft and I'm like, okay cool Like this guy might work out this guy might not like 11 pitchers 14 outfielders. Yeah Three of them are gonna work Most like yeah, I mean

We were also talking about the 2001 draft, briefly, very briefly. We were, we were, yeah. LT came out of that draft. Right, so the Chargers had the number one pick originally, based on the fact that they were 1-15 in 2000. But they traded that pick with Atlanta. And Atlanta, I think, sent... I know Tim Dwight was in the trade. He was part of that, because he was with Atlanta when they were in the Super Bowl in 98. So the Falcons move up, they take Vic. The Chargers take Tomlinson at five, and then they take Breeze.

What that would be 32 because it was the first pick of the second round it was in that weird three-year period The league had 31 teams so teams had teams have a week one buys and they had week 17 buys That's weird it was really it was weird so Reggie Wayne also 30th pick That's right. They already had a pretty good receiver in Harrison. They said why not let's get let's get Peyton another weapon. Yeah

But it's just so crazy to think, because everyone thinks about the tuck rule, you know what I mean? Everyone thinks about the tuck rule, and they think about when Brady came in because Bledsoe got hurt, but if that game before gets played, and what are the odds the scenario plays out exactly the same way, Bledsoe makes that exact run and gets hit, and I'm telling you, like, those two teams, the first week of the season were going in completely opposite directions, and then, you know, whatever, or not because of 9-11, but the break happened.

The Panthers then, the Panthers were coming to that game 1-0. They ended up The Patriots came into that game 0-1.

They went 11 and five and won the Super Bowl. And I just think it was so fitting, because I remember this, it was even those 20 years ago, Carolina and New England played in the Super Bowl two years later. Because Carolina had an incredible turnaround. John Fox, like I said, they drafted all these guys. Steve Smith came in 2001 too. So Steve Smith, speaking of 2001 early in the season, his first play in the NFL, he ran the opening kickoff of the season back for a touchdown against Minnesota. That was their only win that year. That was that first win

wanna know, Smith ran the opening kickoff pack.

I mean they had Chris wanky at quarterback for most of this win key. You remember back that far played at FSU He was like a 30 year old rookie He played like eight years in college. It was it was a funny story. So That was that's like the 2020 Jacksonville jaguars, too. They beat they beat the colts. I do I do remember philip rivers That was the last year that we had 16 games. Yeah, they won their opening game and the colts were good that year, right? We made the class we almost beat buffalo in the first round that year

And then... We won like 11 games. Yeah, we won 11 games and the Jaguars put out a graphic saying like 1-0, we're not done type of thing. Yeah. And it was like, oh my god, of course. Like, it's the Jaguars, right? I mean, that's what they do. That was even before Irving Meyer. I'm trying to remember who the head coach was in 2020 for the Jaguars. Oh, that's a really... Let me try and rack my brain for that. I'm gonna quiz you on it. It's okay. It wasn't Coughlin, was it? No. Coughlin was gone after...

a while because i know he was their gm for a long time too after he left new york he was he went to jacksonville for a while um it was and shocking is this coach was the coach who took them to the afc championship game in 2017 yeah and made it through the entire 2020 season despite losing those 15 games as did george seaford back in 2001 i guess because he had a super bowl

Alright, give me the cellar. Yeah, tell me Doug Morrone Doug Morrone Former bills coach what a name and yeah coaches Well, I mean the Jaguars came within a few minutes of the Super Bowl They came within a bad call of a Super Bowl of that fumble. Oh my jacket. My jacket was called

Which I mean we can the conspiracy theorists have been coming out this week. My god Well, yeah, we can we can talk about taylor swift and all that stuff Just even yeah with the ravens they're saying this game was clearly scripted blah I was like, okay lamar threw it into triple coverage in the end zone. Like there was did he force that what about? Like lamar overthrowing obj like three times. Yeah down the side. We're fumbling at the one year. Yeah after taunting. I mean,

And and especially if the NFL was scripting it they wouldn't want the 49ers in it. They would want the Detroit Lions That's that's still my point Like they don't want the 49ers who have been there every time who their fans are I mean their fans are pretty reliable. I would say but the Detroit Lions they would buy every single shirt They would I can't imagine the amount of Lions fans that would mortgage their Yeah to go to the Super Bowl I mean

Think about all the money that they would spend just on NFC championship gear because that's never been that's never happened for them Yeah, well, we remember we're saying we both had friends that were looking at tickets at halftime Yeah, of that game and I was yelling I was yelling. I was yeah, I don't know how you get caught up in it, too Yes, yes that would have been in a perfect

world

there be an underdog, a team to really root for. It doesn't feel like there's a team to root for here. I mean, yeah, everyone's sick of the Chiefs, but like 49ers are just the Chiefs, but without the Super Bowl wins. They're like the team that's been there a couple of times, they've been to a bunch of NFC championship games, I guess, but they have five Super Bowl wins. I think if you really look more into the story, they have, you know, they haven't won it in 29, or 29 years, 29 years. Christian McCaffrey, who was stuck on a just...

Abysmal panthers team. Yeah for years and everyone thought his career was gonna go down the drain, right? Like now he has a shot to actually win a super bowl title Obviously the shanna and mcaffrey thing which is gonna get oh It's gonna be talked about all game and tony romo is gonna just have somebody's penis down his throat Most likely patrick mahomes. Yeah um But I think the 49ers are a little more likeable than people are giving him credit Maybe it's just maybe it's just me being sick of the chiefs So i'm trying to find something and they have a second year quarterback

and even though they were in it four years ago, this is a new quarterback matchup.

Brock I think Brock is pretty likable. I mean, he's not yes He's never he doesn't come out and say anything like I don't unless he said this is a roommate Those are the roommates of lineman because he makes he makes no money Yeah, well 100 with 800 thousand dollars a year plus their bonus Yeah, cam Newton came out and said something about him being a game manager and I don't know Maybe I saw a fake response Maybe I just got but I did say him or see him say like well There's like 50 something quarterbacks in the NFL and you're not

Yeah, I'm not sure if he actually said that it doesn't seem like a rock-perdy thing to say especially right before the Super Bowl You know go back and look at Tom Brady's early career stats Yeah, he was in a game manager and he was carried by his defense Well, and his run game and even when he wasn't I mean just because a quarterback doesn't put a big number Sometimes he doesn't have to sometimes the best thing he can do

Be the game manager. Yeah, I mean they say oh Alex Smith He's just the game now. It's easier to throw him under the book because this is the Alex Smith Bowl, right? Yeah, the two teams that got really well Alex Smith even said he goes as the like President of game manager quarterbacks like Brock is not say the president of these two teams Oh, no. No, he said president of game manager quarterbacks. He said this he goes Brock Purdy is not a game No, which I mean

I just don't understand how somebody can say he's a game manager and he's making these fantastic reads fantastic decisions It's that's not game manager a game manager is just you know, I'm gonna hand the ball off here I'm gonna make some easy little out throws and you know throw a couple screens, you know I'll take one deep shot because it's you know, it might be there It might not right but that's not brought purred and he's and he was running the ball He was running the ball a lot in the NFC title game. Yeah. I mean, I'm just looking because I

Brady's stats just for reference of game manager. If you look at 2001, 2002, 2001 the Patriots won the Super Bowl, 2002 they missed the postseason entirely. Brady had, now, granted he started two fewer games in 01 because he came in with three, but he had 10 fewer touchdown passes. He had 900 fewer

You know the interceptions were close his completion percentages, you know one was a little higher but his Yards for game much lower rating about the same but point being he was slinging it that second year He led the league, you know to it's just crazy to say he led the league with 28 touchdown passes 28 touchdown passes you let either one of the AFC or the league. That's crazy Yeah And that to that Patriot team they had to throw more because they were getting run on they were giving a lot of points so the point is like

winning games in the NFL that is the quarterbacks job yeah the numbers are sexy the awards are sexy

Mahomes has been kind of a game manager at times this year. Part because his receivers have stunk, in part because the defense has been really good. He just hasn't had to. But believe me, in both of these quarterbacks, really, they've had the clutch gene this year. I think Mahomes is obviously aided by the fact that he didn't have a defense earlier in his career, right? And he's still got it done. Yeah. He gets, you know, he plays the Patriots.

In 18 then they lose and then he won a Super Bowl with I mean, that's not the defense they have now like they

Mahomes, I know I remember Mahomes' defense in 18. That

was a horrible, horrendous defense. They couldn't stop anyone. And obviously there was the offsides on the pick play. Yeah, which I don't think any Chiefs fan, no matter how many Super Bowls they win, I don't think any Chiefs fan will like go to sleep at night and not think about the D4 offsides. Sure. Because then they obviously, another Super Bowl is another Super Bowl. And I'm pretty confident they would have beat the

that regular but then the Rams like couldn't score anything right Super Bowl and I feel like I mean I think their offense probably at that moment in the season was a lot more potent than what the Rams could have done talk about Super Bowls if the league didn't want they got a 13 to 3 Super Bowl they could have had a rematch of a 54 to 51 yeah explain that like see it like I would like someone to explain that I mean it's just the you know it's a conspiracy theory you hit

You know, you throw a hundred darts, he hit one of them. It's like, oh, it's definitely right. Do it. It's definitely right. It was, you know, my lucky number. It was my high school jersey. I mean, you could pick something up. Yeah. Roger Goodell, as much as people give him shit, he knows what he's doing when it comes to building the brand, when it comes to like Thursday Night Football, like Thursday Night Football is just normal. And like, people love Thursday Night Football now.

And for a long time, well, you're not one of them. A lot of people love Thursday Night Football just because it's Thursday Night Football. It's awesome. We have more football. And he does all these other things. He's doing the Nickelodeon thing. We're going to move to 18 games probably in like two or three years. Probably to, what's the next bargaining chip for them? Oh, I know. Just to get to 18. The next NBA is not until 2033. Yeah, I can't remember when the next bargaining chip is. But.

I mean Roger Goodell knows what he's doing and if he wanted to make the absolute most money out of this he would have the Detroit Lions in the Super Bowl like this is the moment this would be their moment and Well, we're here They're gonna have to hope like maybe my homes like for some, you know, maybe my homes gets hurt and like

wild card game or something and they lose and then you know you get like a wide open field like I think What was it 20? I mean it was 2019. That was when the Patriots lost it was like

Right. What do we have here? Why is so many options now? Sure. From the AFC, because it was always just Brady. But like, I think the year Ben went, that was a big year because like Brady was hurt and Brady was hurt. I was going to say that the Steelers just kind of did what they do, which is always come in at the second level when the Patriots are gone. By the way, my whole thing in Thursday Night Football, people know the backstory, but a lot of that was because Time Warner, you know, Time Warner Cable didn't want to buy the NFL package.

And so the NFL said, well, we're going to force your hand. We're going to put a game on NFL Network every single week, Thursday night football. Then your customers are really going to be pissed that you don't have NFL Network. And guess who won that power struggle? Take a wild guess. You know what I mean? So and here we are. That was I want to say it was 2011 or 2012 where that started. And it was like, oh, my God, we're week two and we have a Thursday night game. And we're and this season is going to have an opening Friday night game next year. Yeah, I hate Brazil. I mean,

Is it way is that the first game of the year to me that their first game? Yeah, so that that's 17th game Let's just get a bunch of teams now to play overseas and you're right. It's it's The 18th game so that more that both conferences can have tea. I mean, it's just you know, I Absolutely cannot stand the can not stand the internationals. I just it doesn't make any sense to me I understand they should start with like football. That's really what they should do. You have to start with like football

have to start, I mean the Olympics, like that's how you grow the game and then you grow into leagues. Like the XFL and the USFL just announced the merger to the UFL like a few weeks ago. So they're like, I think they're there, that is like our first real minor league football, I think. Like that's going to be the first real iteration where they're probably going to become a farm team for the NFL, a direct farm team, not just like a...

Oh, these guys are playing football. We'll sign them out of, you know, when they, when the season is over, I think it's going to be a direct farm team and then the NCAA, there's a lot of shit going on right now. I don't know if you've seen that.

The NCAA is going after Tennessee right now for recruiting violations in regards to the NIL, except apparently every lawyer I've heard talk about this, they're saying that the NCAA is in violation of like every rule in the book. This is, I'm giving you a very, obviously a very surface level understanding of what this is. That's all I can handle. But this is basically the first step in.

football and probably basketball breaking away from the NCAA. The SEC and the Big Ten are most likely going to turn into their own league. And then I wanna say, it was like Vermont or some small basketball school up in the New England area.

they have officially recognized their basketball players as employees of the school. Oh, okay. So that's like a landmark decision. And I think the government's gonna have to review it and look at it and make sure everything's good. But that's a landmark decision when it comes to NIL because then that's gonna change the whole game. That means we're probably, it's just gonna be another minor league. Like we're gonna have single A, double A, and then the NFL. That's...

what's coming that's what it sounds like so i mean it's better than with the ncaa because the ncaa sucks yeah i hate them players would agree with you the only reason they're good is because of they give other sports the ability to shine because i think if the ncaa fully disappears you're not going to have i mean college baseball will probably still be there

But you're not going to have other sports like women's field hockey won't survive. Right. Most tennis, I can't imagine like college tennis will survive. I can't imagine college golf will survive unless like the golf channel, which is NBC, they keep that going and that's going to be small. But swimming, I can't imagine that'll survive unless for the Olympics and then USA, so it's just looking like more and more outside sources are going to have to come in unless the NCAA finds a way to stay intact for these other sports.

Because football I mean it was it was becoming time the college football playoff is a clusterfuck of what that that's not the right way to do it. I just I can't stand I can't stand a subjective Committee saying you were right and you know, you're you deserve to get in but you don't right you do and you don't I mean It shouldn't matter like Liberty went 12 and oh and they won their conference. Right you go to all know you win your conference

that's like the NFL, you win the NFC South, you can go on a run in the playoffs like the Bucks did. They won a playoff game. Sure. So. Sure, I mean.

I mean, at least in college basketball, you have the conference tournaments that you can. So you can get your big. Yeah. Some of these teams. Yeah. Let's get out. Anyway, let's talk Super Bowl chiefs and 49ers rematch. But a couple, I guess the NFL is reusing the script. We have chiefs and 49ers rematch. It's an election year. Hopefully not.

Hopefully, well, though, I mean, the World Health Organization is always saying something, but they said there's another strain of COVID that they think is a variant of interest. Hopefully, we don't lose any beloved American figure like we did with Kobe Bryant before the Super Bowl. But there maybe that writer's strike just affected. Yeah, affected the NFL writers. I mean, this script just reusing it a little What do we want to cover first? Do we want to do the stupid props now that so then we can?

talk about other stuff later, or we can do the stupid props at the end of the episode. What do you think? Stupid props at the end, all right. So I'm looking, I'm gonna, I have a little betting sheet that I wrote down here. So the first team to score, if anyone is looking for the first team to score, the first team to score won 11 of the last 15 Super Bowls.

That's the first one. So pretty good odds. If they score first, they'll also win. The, hold on. Oh, sorry. That was, yeah, 11 of the last 15. The team that scored first is 65%. The 37 and 20 of all time. Okay. First score was a touchdown 27 times. The team also won, blah, blah. I just wrote down a bunch of different stuff. Well, how many times did they win when the first score was a touchdown? I don't know if it was

uh 18 times When the first score was a field goal also 27 times, so it's 50 Uh, the team won 59.3. They were 16 and 11 and then the first score was a safety Three times giant's patriot. Yes. I know that bronco seahawks. Oh, that's what I was the first play. Yeah, of course Um the team won 100% of the time all three all three and oh, I get a safe the seahawks and I wonder what the

Oh, maybe the Bills and the Giants. I know there was a safety in that game. We had a little like stretch there in where it was like three out of four or three straight, four straight Super Bowls or something where we had a safety because he had the Seattle one and then the Ravens took an intentional safety at the end against the Niners and then Grady had the intentional grounding the year before that. And then a few years before in Pittsburgh, Arizona, I remember there was a holding in the end zone late in the game.

But you're right, it's safeties in the Super Bowl, pretty uncommon. Yeah. Trying to find all three of them. I think it was, I'll look, but I think it was Giants bills, because I know there was a safety in that game. I know, and let me see if my nerdyness, no, the safety was later. It was Bruce Smith. Bruce Smith? He picked it up and he tackled Jeff Hosteller, gave the Bills a 12-3 lead.

Alright, so here's another one. 49ers are nine and two when they lead at the end of the first quarter, and they're four and two when they don't. The Chiefs are nine and oh when they lead at the end of the first quarter, and if they're down, they're one and five. The Chiefs are, this year, you mean? This year, yeah. Okay, and then the other games that tied, presumably, right? Because you said trail of land. Yeah, I would assume they were tied. I did not write down. If they were tied. Five games went down.

Interesting, but yet the Chiefs, I mean in Mahomes in both of his Super Bowl wins, he's been down 10 points. He's had, oh my god, I mean he had three, it was crazy about the 2019 Chiefs. They were, Mahomes was down 10 or more in all three games and they won them all by 10 or more. Actually, they won them all by 11 or more.

That's crazy. Isn't that nuts? So that means they had at least a 21 point swing in all three. Of course, the Houston game, they outscored 51 to 7 after they were down

Some good stats there. Some good stats. Phew, I got a lot more written down. Spit them out, I'm gonna throw a few out there too. Let's see, I just have a lot of quarters, honestly. Okay. Oh, the only two teams leading by more than seven points at halftime that have ever lost a Super Bowl. No, let me guess this. How many did you say? There are only two teams leading by more than seven points at halftime. Last year, the Eagles were up 10. Yup. But no, New England and Seattle were 10.

I was thinking oh well Atlanta of course yeah those two black is Brady's been in so many yeah No team has ever come back to win the game when they're held scoreless in the first half How often is that? Patriots weren't they I think they kicked a late field goal to go into the half Yeah, it was 21-3 at halftime The Rams definitely were one because that was a that was a three nothing game

Yeah, that was like the worst. Horrendous. Well, Denver was getting shut out obviously until late mid-Seattle. Until like early in the fourth quarter. Yeah. Teams leading by three points or less at the half have lost five of ten times. Okay. Five of the last ten. And teams leading by four have lost seven out of fifteen. So again, coin flip. Okay. Both teams also have winning records when they are leading or not leading at half time.

49ers are 9 and 2 when they lead they're 4 and 3 when they're not leading so I think that includes tides Tide are losing chiefs are 8 and 2 when they're leading and they're 6 and 3 when they're tied or losing That's what the scary that's a scary.

They're probably a winning record when they're down or 10. Yeah, so okay. Um, all right So this is my other I think I wrote down a bunch of stupid props What are some of your numbers? Oh my god? So this is the eighth Super Bowl rematch and when I say rematch I mean so this is a 58 Super

Bowl

And it's the eighth time that two teams have faced off either two or three times in one case, which is Pittsburgh, Dallas. And I think the trend is that more often than not, the team that wins the first.

will win the second. I don't want to read them off. Pittsburgh, Dallas. Pittsburgh beat Dallas twice in the 70s. Super Bowls 10 and 13. Obviously Dallas got their revenge in 95. That's the only matchup to occur three times. Miami, Washington split. They played 10 years apart. San Francisco beat Cincinnati both times, seven years apart in the 80s. We know the only time in history that teams have played in the Super Bowl back-to-back years, Buffalo,

The bangles was boomer right boomer size was the first one boomer was the second one Were both of those a koi or um, not a koi icky uh One of them definitely was if not both

Obviously Dallas hammered Buffalo two years in a row. And that was the bills. I mean people were fatigued to the bills even though they didn't win because they got through four years in a row. Patriots Giants, Giants won both of those four years apart.

Patriots and Eagles, those split, they played 13 years apart. And the Patriots beat the Rams both times, they faced off 17 years apart. So Kansas City, San Francisco, the eighth time, teams have met, I did the math, it's very simple math, 16 times 16 is 256 possible Super Bowl matchups based on the current AFC and MSU. We've had, so if we've had eight rematches plus two of those teams have played three

49 of those if we played football for the next thousand years, I don't think we'd cover 207 how many rematches of Patriots Giants Eagles Rams

Like they beat the Rams twice, split with the Eagles, lost to the Giants twice. That's just so weird to me that all of those are within like a 20 year period. All of them were Brady. Because I know because obviously the Giants are the most notable ones. Right. But it's so odd to me that they played the Eagles twice in a like those were Brady's two careers because everyone says Brady could have three Hall of Fame careers. Two of them, he plays them at the same or in the different careers.

Saw a different basically a complete almost a completely different player in Tom Brady and they still lost Yeah, yeah, right. So except for the Eagles obviously the Eagles beat him. Well, I mean but in the Eagles one that he lost he He was over 500. He was a yeah, that wasn't his fault. It's a flawless game Yeah, they deal the strips or the or the drop. Yeah, it was a flawless game as a quarterback Jalen Hurts actually did that in the Pro Bowl this year. They they tried to run that a variation of that play to him

and it went right off his hands. It looked exactly like the Brady drop. And he like, except he fell to the ground laughing. I'm sure Brady was like, fuck, can't believe I dropped it. Yeah, that's... So...

Yeah, interesting. There have been three Super Bowl scores that have repeated themselves twice. There's obviously like, I don't think there's ever been a score-a-gummy or like a Super Bowl score that was a true, that's only ever happened that one time. It's like even 41-33, we had a game a few years ago, the Niners and Lions, interestingly, and it was won in like the 70s. So the only Super Bowl, so if you're looking for like a, what's a common score we might see in the Super Bowl, the only ones that have happened twice, 27-10,

117 so all pretty yeah Like when you look at like the expert picks are always like pretty common scores. Yeah, no one has ever like it's gonna be like 32 to 22, you know you get the squares and you get the two like Somebody offered me to do Super Bowl squares here I was like honestly because they didn't have any numbers written down on so it was just random Yeah, I just yeah and I was like I literally told him as they gave him the money I was like, this is just

I know I'm not gonna win. But somebody's gonna win. That's the good news. I remember if the Patriots would have won, if they would have scored a touchdown in the Patriots-Eagles Super Bowl a few years ago, I would have won, I would have guessed it perfectly.

Was one score up like I would have guessed the because we do it we also do a game where you know You just pick the winner and the exact score. I was one touchdown off from winning the whole thing Yeah, I was so pissed because like Brad they threw they threw like a deep touchdown or something like that Or no, they had a Hail Mary at the end of the game, right? You can't hold on that. I would want like 200 bucks. I was in high

final score 41 33 yeah I think maybe I had like 42 41 and I they would have needed to go for two or maybe I had the Patriots scoring 33 and the Eagles not winning I can't remember but I remember it was like a touchdown I was so close and like as a high it's so much money

go on and change my school last year but i had written down november somewhere that she's really and went to the game is thirty one twenty seven but i put a dollar on

38 35 how much did you win on that 80 bucks? That's I did a few others So, you know, I came out like seven right the only other Super Bowl score I got perfectly and I have it I do have a documented way back in the draft America archives was the Seattle Super Bowl New England Seattle's at 28 24 and I just somehow I just knew they Weren't gonna score that touchdown. I don't know how I knew it just felt like Brady's not gonna lose another Super Bowl in Arizona. Yeah, I just didn't know how but Pete Carroll called the

salty about that. I would be too. I think he's very he's still very upset because you hear him talk about it and he's like he's still angry at Pete Carroll. Right. They said like when he was in the huddle everyone looked around and was like what? Yeah. What do you why? And they I think if that was me I would have been I mean I'm not in the NFL. Who throws a pass over the middle of it? I'm not in the NFL but if it was me I would have been like no we're gonna run the ball like I don't.

Right, but even if you had like play action, you roll out, you throw a fade, I mean something that's just not going to get intercepted. Like a safer... Something higher in the air. Right, but if you look at the replay, I mean it looked like it was there. Malcolm Butler, that was a heck of a...

play. He was almost cut before that Super Bowl, right? I think Belichick, like for disciplinary reasons. No, that was the Eagles Super Bowl. He benched him. Oh, it was. But Butler was, I don't know if he was like a practice squad guy or a late round draft or undrafted, I can't remember, but he, I mean, obviously he'll never have to buy a beer and doing that again. That's true.

Quick Icky Wood stat he only played four years Oh, well, then there's your answer 98 to 9 or 88 1988 to 91. Oh, so his rookie year was that second? Super bowl it was john candy in the stand, right? Oh, yeah Hey, there's john uncle buck

There's been five quarterbacks to start for the 49ers in the civil law I can name them Yeah without even looking at my list. Well does that include that includes yeah Brock Purdy. Yeah, Jimmy Garofalo You got Colin Kaepernick some dude named Montana and some other guy named young I guess right. Yeah, so Montana one Right because he won four out of the five young one is yeah is one and well the

You know the high-scoring Super Bowl is combined the two teams It's 70 I know it's like what 75 Was it wasn't the 12 the 20 or the 2011? Was it oh, I think I know

It wasn't Buffalo.

It was so I'll tell you it was the it was the Niners last Super Bowl win against the Chargers fittingly 95 49 points you a 90 by 94 season 49 26 over the Chargers Steve Young had what six touchdowns that game was that Dan found they got violently ill after the game in the limo because he was So dehydrated I remember reading the whole story on that. No, it wasn't it fouls. It was Stan Humphrey So I think I can pass the way there. There's a whole curse of the 94

Chargers

a bunch of them I know stand-up recent passive but there were a bunch of guys from the 94 Chargers team who passed the way there's like a curse of that 94 Chargers I think the Chargers are just cursed they're cursed in general after the Bills lot by the way another funds that after the Bills lost four straight Super Bowls so the last one was the 93 season between 94 and 2006 and the Colts won 13 Super Bowls all of them had a different losing

Oh, okay. Yeah, they had repeat winners losers, right every year was it a new Super Bowl losers Yeah chargers the Steelers the Pats the Packers the Falcons the Titans the Giants the Rams the Raiders the Panthers the Eagles the Seahawks And of course, as you know the Bears, yeah, and then the Pats But we've probably talked about the game who's the longest tenured player in the Super Bowl right now or in this

year's Super Bowl

You mean the player, the player, active player who's been in the league the longest on the two teams? Mm-hmm. Oh, God. It's actually, this one surprised me. I didn't think he was even around this. Well, I was hoping that Gold would be still the kicker, because then he could go all the way back to To the 25 before Gideon was commissioner. Um, oh, God. Uh, let me think. Is it, uh, I feel like it's someone on the Chiefs. I don't know why. No, wait.

Give me the team. Just give me the team. 49ers. It's on the 49ers. I mean, it's not the kicker of the punter, right? No, that's always the safest way. So shockingly, no, it's not. It's not, it's not going to be a running back. So it can't be. Probably a defense. Is it like Dre Greenwald or something? No.

Not defense is on offense. Yeah. Oh, tramp Williams. Yep. Yeah, I didn't think that 21 because he was when richard sherman punched your face after that playoff game in 2012 So he's at least been in the league Over a decade. I think so. He was in that jesus. Yeah, that was that um, seahawks, uh redskins game in 2012 and He just let me and richard sherman said what are you gonna do is i'm gonna punch in your face He said all right, and then he did it on camera i'm sure he's not the first guy that's wanted to hit richard sherman, but that's true

Speaking of 49ers chiefs last time they were in the Super Bowl Richard Sherman got burned by Sammy Watkins Sammy Watkins. Yeah Didn't he get fat? I think he got fat No, but he got fat when he was playing oh no, I'm thinking of who was Who is the receiver for the Bills he was like a first-round pick and all of a sudden he got fat and then he wanted To be a tight end

It was pretty recent. Samuel Watkins was drafted by the Bills, right? It could have been him. I don't think it was him. I do know who the unsung hero and probably who the MVP of the last Chief Super Bowl win should have been. I think it should have been Damian Williams. If I recall correctly, and I'm gonna look it up to see, he broke that big run at the end of the game for the touchdown. I think he had, what did he have, three touchdowns in that game?

Damien Williams had 17 for 104 and a rushing touchdown. He had four for 29 and a receiving touchdown. Mahone's numbers were pretty modest. He was 26 for 42, 286, two TDs, but two picks. He was sacked four times. He did have a rushing touchdown. And I mean, look, and again, like, it's hard, I mean, you know, because you're a Colts fan, Peyton Manning should not have been the MVP of that circle. You know who he should have been? In 06, Dominic

Sounds familiar. He was the first Kelvin Benjamin. That's who I'm thinking of Kelvin Benjamin Okay, he got fat, but he was in Caroline. I think at the time I Yeah, I think it's hilarious when that is cuz David Ortiz that was a big thing every spring training He would show up and they would say oh my god. He's fat like he's he gained so much weight over the offseason

I was like, it's big copy. That's his name. This is great. And then eventually he sheds the weight. The only one that didn't, that was an issue, was Pablo Sandefol. Pablo, yep. 2015 or 16 right now. That was, they signed him in 15. They signed him in 15, yeah. I don't remember if he even. That was the same year Karl Crawford got signed. That was the same year Hanley Ramirez also got signed. Wasn't Karl Crawford. Hanley Ramirez, yes. When did...

Oh, no, pro popper was 2011 2011. That was that yeah fried chicken and beer red socks. That was my nightmare team That was my favorite because i'm the orioles that course they're like, you know, because then five years in a row after that They were good. Yeah, the curse of the end, you know, but just except for thirds. Wait, you know that worst to worst to first to worst

I know I got a bumper sticker at Fenway in 2014. They were giving them out. I'd say worst to first to worst. Cause 12, they were the worst. 13, they won it all. 14, they went back in the last. 13, that team was also expected to be really bad. Which we don't, we don't have to talk too much baseball. Baseball is coming. I want to tell, I promise that. Let's bookmark 2013 Red Sox. Cause I have some stories about that, but paint manning like.

And so this whole MVP thing, because Rhodes was 21 for 113 and a touchdown in that game. Manning was like 25, 38, 247, a TD and a pick, whatever. But I don't know. I mean, if you look at the Super Bowl MVPs, the last time we had a defensive player. Was, you know, this von Miller, right? Von Miller. And before that, Malcolm Smith. And before that only happened two other times in the 2000s, which were the obviously the Ravens, obviously the Ravens of the Bucks, because they were the Ray Lewis.

Dexter Jackson, which is funny because I think they put the votes in for Dexter Jackson because he had the two picks earlier Yeah, Dwight Smith had two pick sixes in that game in a Super Bowl She's an MVP, but like the last one was with two seconds left I have what wasn't as important. I have a number this is crazy This is even in this that this is even in Vegas to bet

The odds that Travis Kelce will propose to Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl. Yeah, that's a pretty reasonable one. What are the odds? Do you know what the odds are? They're probably like two to one. One in... This is what it says, one in

The odds plus 200 or something will he propose the odds that Travis Kelsey will pose to Taylor Swift I feel like already they already have to factor that in. I feel like it is a low shot. I can't like

The suit I can't imagine he would do it at the Super Bowl I feel like that's something they don't do in the NFL when his last time you remember a guy proposing on the field the Rams Taylor rap I want to say I don't know if it was a Super Bowl or if it was the NFC championship Maybe I think that was the end title Yeah, Jose Altuve got a massive deal today five years I

He's still gonna probably be good in five years, because small body's not gonna break down. It's expensive to bang those trash cans and wear the wires, you know? And by the way, last running back to win Super Bowl MVP? You know? Let me think about

I feel like it

Was one of those Patriots teams no hasn't happened this century this century Was it was it Emmett Smith little more recent little more recent You tell me it was Terrell Davis

Wouldn't know that one. Oh, it's real Davis. That was the Super Bowl in Denver upset Green Bay for its first I was always first. Yeah And Davis had migraines and he did he was like a decoy on one play Just remember that way the Elway helicopter they show that clip so much it reminds me of the Rosen copter

The rosenkopter game you ever heard of that? No, I think it was houston and tennessee they were playing It was like I think it was a meaningless game and the quarterback

Rosenfield something Rosen sage Rosen sage Rosenfeld like ran for a first down for like no reason It was like no reason for him to do it and he ended up he get ended up like helicoptering I think he fumbled and like they lost the game. It was maybe was meaningful to Houston Oh, maybe it was against the

Man, Gary Brackett was good. I don't know if that place stood. There's a flag I now I'm tempted to see if it counted or not. But anyway, maybe it was meaningful the Colts Well, it was we I mean it was yeah, it was early in the season. Sage Rosenbiltz tries to pull a John Elway Uh real quick before we go into the game. What's your what's your fake? Okay for besides the Colts and Ravens for us Favorite Super Bowl you've ever watched best game. I mean what I really hate to say it, but the 28 to three that's just that is

Like I hate to see the Patriots when I hate that it was the Patriots. Take that. But like just everything about that, you know, they go and the literally that picture is now a meme of them getting the shot of Brady sitting here like this. Like he just has his head down. You can see his nameplate on the back. Cause he just so bent over that was right before the comeback started. Now it's a meme. It's like, you know, anytime like anyone like, you know, they're trying to hit on a girl and like they're sitting at the bar like that, just

like preparing themselves to go talk to the girl like so much and then and then um what was it Damien was it Damien Harris that scored the

Damien for the Patriots in the game. Yeah. Oh James white James white Dion Lewis James white that had the massive and that's speaking of guys that could have been MVP Yeah, white had a same game 15. Yeah, but the Edelman catch. Oh, I mean I also like I mean I could say

I don't know Super Bowl 50 like to see Manning was cool. But yeah, that wasn't I think we misremember that I will say cuz if I when I rewatch it I go through and I'll rewatch some of the old Games and that game was really close most of the way until I think it was until cam Refused to die for the ball. I say that was the moment. Yeah, but that game wasn't exactly out of

the what's it the Seahawks Patriots I mean especially that catch down the sideline nobody talks about that gold Golden Tate oh it was the one where it was like tipped up yeah that's how the Seahawks got down right I think that was Malcolm Butler who tipped it up yeah and you know nobody talks about it and I remember saying I remember saying like when that happened I was like if the Seahawks like they find a way to win this game that might be the greatest catch in Super Bowl

Like that would be that would be more than um, what's his name for the giant? Uh, tyree Yeah, david tyree. I was thinking of manningham great catch too. I think manningham was more just also a great throw Whereas the tyree one was just he kind of just heaved it up. He had to he just had to get it out of there Manningham he threw it right in the bucket. Oh, that was and the toe tap was fucking awesome but

I mean 28 to 3 just... What I'm trying to think, I mean the Eagles Patriots Super Bowl was cool That was a fun one to watch And high scoring But last year, everyone was talking about how great of a game it was I mean it was a good game But it just didn't have it for me I don't know, maybe it was the color match up To me when one, like the 28 to 3 doesn't, it was a great game But like when you have two halves that are just both dominated by a team

You want a game that is...

So yeah, there's a lot of back and forth as opposed to just one team dominates and then the other team is dominant That is what it felt like last year By the way greatest officiating call in history because there's been bad ones Mike Carey not calling Eli Manning in the grass. Oh He spun out he threw it led to the greatest play There it I'll summarize mine real quick favorite non Ravens both times Patriots lost probably well and the Chiefs losing too

I just love seeing when these dynasty teams were down. Of course, it was Brady beating the Chiefs in that one But yeah, I mean how can you know beating the undefeated team was pretty amazing But the bet the first one I watched start to finish It was probably my favorite one just because I was nostalgic for it was the Titans and the Rams Ended on the one-yard line. Oh I don't I came you know, but the Rams led 16 nothing the Titans were doing nothing all game in the evening they're just

came into his own there and then you have Isaac Bruce caught the long touchdown and then I mean game ended on a one-year. I mean as a Colts fan it would be hilarious to watch the Titans lose like that. Well that's the only time the Titans have been there. Well that's the argument anytime an AFC South team wants to like shit on you, you just say... Titans? None. Where's the Jaguars? No Super Bowls. Texans? No appearances. No AFC title game appearances. I know. That's so sad. Colts have...

Yeah, the Colts have won two, they've been to four, they- Yeah, the three teams combined have been to one. Yeah, and the Colts have been to a ton of AFC title games. Yeah.

I could probably I can't even count right now. I think I think the 99 seasons when I fell in love with football. It was the year before the Ravens won actually Ray Lewis at that Super Bowl is where he got into the whole legal mess or whatever. But it was Kurt Warner's rags to riches story was that year. And I just was like, this is so cool. This is what football is. These great stories. And then the Ravens won the Super Bowl. The next year, I'm like, I love this. And fast forward 20 years later, it's gone out. Brady in my homes every freaking year. That was a great game. But I think the best one I watched, even though I didn't like the result,

But I think it was Patriots in Carolina because I was so again in love with these underdog stories Love Jake DeLome and those oh three cardiac cats that game was fantastic. It was scoreless for About 25 minutes and then 14 10 24 points in the last five minutes the first half then scoreless No, they explode both teams exploded again in the fourth New England was up 11 Carolina came back took the lead New England went ahead Carolina tied it

Um, and then Vin and Terry kicks the field ball, kicker kicked it out of bounds. Casey kicked it out of bounds. Um So those are the ones that stand out The one I guess well and I mean there's really not much to talk about I think before the super bowl It's a lot more you talk more super bowl history and I know and numbers before the super bowl The game great is the history of the game. I also think i'll say this the super bowl doesn't have Like during the game, it doesn't have the juice to me

Compared like and all the lead-up, right? I think I think it's because of all the lead-up and all the hype it's oh my god, the Super Bowl is here the Super Bowl is here and then we're in the game and teams It doesn't feel like the Super Bowl like the AFC the AFC and NFC title games feel like the Super Bowl Yeah, that's what it should feel like and that's why I hate the neutral field, right? I just I am yeah. Yeah, the only time I'll accept a neutral field is if it's in the state

of like the team which obviously you can't do that that's impossible to do but the chargers played the 49ers they should have played it in california somewhere maybe somewhere in the middle they need to do the rose bowl more i think they needed they do yeah and the coliseum they played in uh in the rose bowl a few times they played uh

Probably, I think most recently, the Cowboys Bills. One of my favorite Super Bowl logos is the Rose. The Rose from Dallas Buffalo, I think. That is probably maybe like my top three. Don't even get started. I'm gonna do a video on it. Well, Instagram. This whole week has been, you know, the Pro Bowl. I just, I love the days when it was after the season and in Hawaii and it was a regular game and they played hard. I mean, they didn't play that hard, but they played, there was some pride. It started to gradually wane over time.

Yeah, but how about the game? I mean, so... There's, I think, our predictions, but like... There's the obvious players, I think, that everyone's gonna talk about. Let's talk about some of the non-obvious, I guess, impact guys. The receivers, obviously, are for the Chiefs. Not named Travis Kelsey or Shea Briggs. Right. Those two are, I think, the whole core in general. They can get something going. I think if MVS can really be an impact.

That's gonna be big because the 49ers are gonna find a way to get rid of Kelsey for at least half the game Yeah, right. I mean I feel like that's pretty reasonable They have are they the ones that have sucked against tight ends or was that Detroit? But Rashid Rice is sort of finding his footing at time I would say he really is starting to find his footing I hope I hope he can show out but

I think just that sporting catch, like is Tony even playing this week? If they made up a fake injury, he might not be, right? You know. Hold on, let's see. Status here. Yeah, it's still unknown, so I'm not really sure what he's gonna do. He also said he never attacked the Chiefs in his recent profane rant. That's just the headline I saw.

Um, but getting Pacheco, I think, involved in the pass game is going to be important. Yeah. That's going to be big. And,

Receiving a receiver running back. You know, I'm trying to say yeah, they're saying he has a very real chance Oh and this I don't mean to take you off that but also Patrick Mahomes his dad got a DWI. I did yes, of course that I'm so Pitching well last year. So again, here's fun. Super Bowl's they had the last four times I can remember that there was a legit distraction that team lost last year I don't know if you remember because he's a small-name player, but Josh Yeah

serious stuff. Eagles lost that game. Britt Reid, real serious stuff. I think it died as a result of that or seriously injured with the car. It was okay. I don't know if it was drunk driving or it was just negligent, whatever, but that was definitely a distraction. The Chiefs got hammered. The kid had major brain damage. Yeah, it was something very... Like permanent brain damage. Very serious. Yeah, I remember that. Barrett Robbins.

Raiders went on a bender in Tijuana disappeared completely disappeared. He was one of their he was their starting center. I believe Talk about distraction your starting center goes missing and I for the Super Bowl. Yeah Raiders get destroyed by 27

Uh, well, it's not that funny. It's funnier than the other stories. Eugene Robinson solicits an undercover Cough thinking it's a prostitute in Miami than before that. I don't know. They can't have the suit. This is this is the same thing Miami, you can't have it in Miami Vegas, new orleans Yeah They need to learn to not do that because the nfl already said they issued a statement saying players cannot gamble Before the super bowl they can gamble after the super bowl, but they cannot gamble before right?

Needless to say that was an embarrassment. The Falcons got embarrassed. Stanley Wilson running back for the Bengals the 88 Super Bowl Relapsed into cocaine usage on the eve of the game when the Bengals were about to play the

and Bengals lost that one. So I'm sure you could find some odd one somewhere. Like something happened. But it's interesting that yes, this, I don't know. I don't know if this would be a distraction. If anything, does it distract the team? Does it maybe distract the homes a little bit? You know, I don't know. Is the media just peppering him with questions about his dad? I really haven't seen anything about it. It's kind of sensitive too, right? You're gonna be like, oh, so your dad's got his third DWI. How do you feel about that? I don't know if that's appropriate. That's a tough one. Yeah.

It was David Letterman he'd probably ask him but you know, it's a game with a lot of goal but Yeah, so that's interesting that you brought that up. Where were we talking about? Oh, we were talking about the Chiefs passing Passing yeah, we're using running backs in the passing game I have to I had to do a double take here because as good as the as good as the Chiefs defense has been all year

Make sure I'm reading this correctly. As a teen, they only had, let me just do some quick math, eight interceptions, the whole year, is that right? Really? I'm looking, yeah. You know, and the defense had eight interceptions. As a whole, the defense got, let me

Yeah, eight interceptions a whole year. The Chiefs were negative 11 in turnovers this year They were right at near the bottom of the league and we thought that was a big deal because the ravens led the nfl Tied with the giants plus 12 Minus but that's still mahomes. That's the brady mahomes and I think mind game. Yeah, I i'm I don't know But I think this is kind of the same thing with his dad as well where it's like, oh we got him We finally got mahomes, you know, we

There's something to distract him, right? We finally got him and I mean we don't know but this is what we do This is what we do every year So I just I always like to just make sure that's in the listener's mind of like we're aware of what's going on like I always because Every, you know, everyone's gonna be like, oh you got it wrong. You know my homes My home my homes can't my homes isn't you know, he's impenetrable you guys like thought he was penitrable. No, we know

The only the only thing that can stop homes is if gronkowski comes out of retirement because gronkowski was retired in 19 chiefs won the super He comes back for two years Retires again and now they're gonna win back to back. That was uh, um, and then because we're starting to get on time We probably have to wrap up soon. Um, so much fun talking about history, man. I know just do that all right? I want to talk about jake moody. Yes, that's a Robbie gold earlier was joking, right? He has been I mean his misses are bad and his makes are

almost worse you know yeah and I mean everyone says kickers aren't important special teams aren't important you could talk to the Chiefs about special teams as well because last I think last year but curse struggled I mean they won he struggled in the he struggled in the early part of the season yeah I don't know if he did so much in the postseason but he hit the game winner good either way yeah special teams matters a lot more than I think a lot of

casual fans, let's say. Tony had a big punt return last year to set up a touchdown. And Jake Moody is, I mean, he could be a problem. He's three of five on field goals, and he's one of three between 40 to 49 yards, which is, I mean, in the NFL, you gotta make your 40 to 49 yards. Those are game breakers. Oh yeah.

They're indoors. There's no elements. I mean when they lost the Cleveland he missed well, they're already complaining about the Practice the UNLV practice just go to San Francisco Last year remember how bad the footing was and it seemed like it was only the Eagles who were slipping on that field I was weird. Maybe it was a What's it

Something gate they were calling it turf gate turf gate Because you know, I mean we're doing the same thing with the Patriots Yeah, I believe teams have gone to the Super Bowl rookie quarterbacks Justin Tucker when the Niners lost the ratings was a rookie Jake Elliott did well for the Eagles as a rookie McPherson's with the Bengals and they had a trustworthy kicker and him still do yeah, the moody thing is that's an interesting point and You know, I mean the way that these teams play the 49ers have won two games

by three points in the postseason and Moody missed in both right he had a miss against Green Bay I think yes he did miss one in Green Bay Detroit yeah he missed one early yeah early against Detroit because I my Lions fan was he was literally doing the push to the right and he actually missed it to the right so we were like no fucking way no shot he got that you know but kickers like so I mentioned that Carolina New England Super Bowl Vinatieri missed two short field goals early in that game

Does anyone remember that? No, they remember the game winner from 41 yards out with four seconds left. I mean, one was blocked. But the point is Moody, they've been lucky they haven't been in crunch time. But yeah, there's, look, there's always concern, right? That the game's gonna come down to the foot of a kicker. Best lesson is don't let that happen and don't let the officials have an impact on the game.

Try to win by more than three. I mean, that's funny, but like you're right. Yeah, well, I mean, that's just the constant complaining and that's my point. And people are like, oh, the other team is trying hard too. Like I get it, but you made mistakes in the second quarter that left points on the board. Like those points would be there right now. Like, obviously we don't know how things would shake out if.

Maybe they make the field goal instead and then maybe somebody catches the ball instead of drops it. We don't know, but we know the points that were left on the board and you're complaining about the refs. Right. Your team made a mistake. Yeah, you don't want to come back.

this you know say well it's always the Chiefs to get away with they're always the Patriots well they're good teams and you know in tennis there's the there's the expression is unforced errors right unforced errors versus the other team forces you to make mistakes you cannot have unforced the Ravens had a lot of unforced errors yeah even the flowers fumble was an error even though Snead made the great play that never should have I mean you never should be extending the

Um, do you have any other stats? Cause then we're going to picks and we should go into picks. Yeah. I don't want to make any Taylor Swift predictions. Um, although imagine if you were like her relative and you knew what color dress she was going to wear and you could just bet on it. Like, Hey Taylor, what are you wearing? I'm wearing red. All right. That was three to one. I'll put, you know, Gatorade colors. That's a fun. Let's do it. Yeah. I'm actually, I'm taking down a bunch of these here. Um,

We did them we also did them on Monday, but they weren't my serious ones first teams and score obviously First team to score. No, I mean teams who's gonna win and what will the score? Oh, yeah. Yeah I was gonna say I'm gonna throw out blue as the Gatorade color. I don't know why You gotta pick for

I said orange. Yeah, I was thinking orange. I was feeling orange. I feel like we haven't had orange in a long time. I don't know what it's been. I'm sure someone has tracked, you know, Gatorade, Color, History, Super Bowl, right? Plus they're both red, and I feel like one- Orange is the most popular. Well, that's the original. Oh, no, sorry. Uh, was, okay, so it says-

Oh, since 2001 orange is the most popular, but since 2015 blue has been the most frequent. And 2001, since 2001 it's never been red. And purple and yellow have only appeared three times.

Who who's gonna win the coin toss and what? Both these teams are deferring so whoever the coin toss is not getting the ball start. Yeah Tails never fails. So always I don't nobody ever picks they always pick heads. I know it Furiates me I'm gonna say that the chiefs win the Somehow the 49ers screw up and the chiefs get it both

That would happen. Man, the Chiefs. I'm gonna say the 9. Wait, who's picking?

Oh, so the right so this is an odd numbered season. So the NFC is the road team. So the chiefs are I'm sorry So the NFC chooses the visitor chooses right so the Niners make the call So I'm gonna go with the Chiefs as well. They're playing the 49ers will call heads. Well, I'll yell at the TV I'll say tails never fails and whoever's out there probably not I feel like it's a defensive player. Maybe Snead maybe Chris Jones good. Um, what about usher?

usher what is this here we go will he do it is this one the I saw as it over so that was why I saw somewhere yet the offshore books actually have most up here yeah the legal ones it gets a little money as

do some and then there's some legality issues in certain states. Oh, here we go. Will Alicia Keys or Ludacris appear? Definitely one of them. I don't know which one. I like them both, but I hope Ludacris just because I'm nostalgic for, you know, I wonder if he's, I'm sure he's done a super bowl. Well, he just also did a commercial for Jif Peanutbutter. I haven't seen Alicia Keys in a while. So I'm going to say Alicia Keys to Zig because I haven't seen her.

That much in like media lately. Yeah. Um, what about reba mcintyre's? um What's it called national anthem? I don't know how I forgot about oh how long Again, I look at like the hold on. I gotta take the mean of all the previous They're saying 89 and a half seconds is the line So that's probably what the standard is She'll she probably because she's older and wants to relieve a lasting impact. She'll probably hit a i'm gonna say

What about... Is there anything else? I didn't see anything else. I mean, I'm sure there's a ton of other options we can do. Um, we'll just say score and then that'll also go for the total score of like over-under. Oh, yeah. What is the over-under? I've had a predetermined score because I picked Cheese and the Niners before the year. Not necessarily on your show, but I had it. Wrote it all down.

I have the Niners beating the Lions in the AFC Championship game. Really great call. I have the Chiefs beating the New York Jets in the AFC Championship game. Uh, and then I have the Chiefs and 49ers and I have a score picked out. And so I'm not going to waver from that. I'm trying to find

Um point spread latest thoughts here we go. Okay. I'm seeing right here Nope still can't find anything. I don't know 47 and a half. I think it's gonna hit He doesn't go over. Yeah

Well, let's see, since you're starting, give me the final Oh

I think it's gonna be a little bit more of an offensive game Yeah, because i'm seeing like madden predicted like 16 to Six or something like that at half or no final score and I was like that sucks. That's not happening. Um, i'm gonna go i'm going chiefs i'm gonna

31 28. Okay. I feel like a Niners like last couple minute like drive score and then try and get it back. I see. So they're gonna try and do that. Yeah. So it's 47 and a half. I told you I had a predetermined score for the season. I don't want to waver from that because I did it last year and it cost me. So I'm saying first of all one guarantee.

in my opinion is that the 49ers won't score more than 27 because the Chiefs have gotten 20 games this year and not given up 27 but It definitely won't be 30. How about that 49ers won't get to 30. Yeah

Um, if they do i'm happy to eat my words even if even if the chiefs still win I am going to go with the chiefs. I think there's too many similarities to this chiefs team and I always felt like Whatever year tom brady finally retired Would be the year somebody could finally win back-to-back super bowls because brady kept it from happening against the seahawks He kept it from happening against the chiefs Now he's out against it for good colts, too Oh, wow, man early super bowl

Yeah, being what happened in the 07 season.

I want to say that Colts team was pretty good. They were, but they lost to the Chargers in the playoffs. Oh, oh, okay. It's a team that has a chance to repeat as a champion. And Brady was the reason they didn't. So he did it to Seattle, he did it to Kansas. No, I'm saying I thought he beat the Colts in 2007. In like the AFC title game. Oh, no. He should have. But the Chargers got in the way and then went to make them with the...

That was the LT and Philip Rivers and then he tore his ACO, right? And they were all ready. Yeah.

So I do think, I think the Chiefs have all the intangibles. Will this be, could this potentially be Andy Reid's last game? Could it potentially be Travis Kelsey's last game? Probably not, I don't think we're that lucky. I just think the Chiefs defense and run game is gonna be what wins it for them because that's as great as Mahomes is, as much as we can sit here and talk about how teams are shaking in their boots. It's been their defense and run game as much as anything this year. So I'm going by a hair,

skin of their teeth they go under 27 20 cheese a lot of people that was for the season I mean better than 13 3 and a super bowl I know it's not 38 35 we had a 23 to 20 game and that was a great game the bangles and the rams was a classic

We had a 31-9 game that was not a classic, so points don't always equate to a great game. I don't even know if 27-20 is going to be that great of a game. I think the Chiefs are going to try to make this ugly like they did last week. They're going to try to win ugly. They're going to try to set the tone early. And I'm going to... Mahomes is so easy to pick as the MVP. When Brady won MVP his first two times, and then he let someone else do it, and then he did the same thing, he won two more, and then he let the receiver do it. So it's

Branch and Edelman.

Why not Pacheco for MVP? Why not? You know, first 20 back in... First 20... Yeah, that's why. I know that you just reminded me. It's been so damn long. It's been a quarter of a century. But it's due. It is due. It could be Kelsey. And the Niners have struggled with their run game. Who was stopping the run game? They have. And once they get past that first level, they've had a hard time tackling.

Pacheco's a guy that yeah, he's gonna have a big game whether or not the voters give him the award just like they didn't give Dominic Rhodes the award just like they didn't give it to James White Sometimes they just check those also been a really good story I think to a lot of people know his and is I think he lost his mom and his sister and his brother within like a Very short amount of time. Wow, so I think that's a really good story people are gonna love it and he's very quiet Nobody really hates it and a seventh round draft. Yes, like not mr. relevant, but like

Yeah, so I think I think he has a good shot. I think that's a good pick. Hey Julian Edelman So why not so let's give it to let's give it to Pacheco right? I guess I have to pick my MVP and then we'll get out of Do I want to do I want to do the Jerry West and give it to a

Happened once in Super Bowl history. There's no way you would yeah, I don't think that's yes I happen actually against the Colts I'm gonna say I Feel like the voters are gonna not try it. They don't want to give it to They don't want to give it to mojo's because they're already getting sick and tired of the racing although Brady wanted a lot, but I'm gonna say Rashid rice well, usually when it's not a

And it's an offensive guy who's not a quarterback. It's always a receiver now. So that's the reason. I mean, look, has a tight end ever won it? The answer, no. Tight end has never won Super Bowl MVP. I think Kelsey's gonna have a important position. He's gonna make some key plays. He's gonna make key plays, but I feel like statistically he might not have a pick one. I think he's gonna make some key plays.

Right like a big game like he's not gonna go for 110 and two touchdowns He'll he'll have a modest game But those modest yards are gonna come on like key third downs late in the game Because they go to him all the time like a like a shovel pass or something And then maybe he'll take it for like four but it's like oh like the chief's really, you know Maybe they were down four. Yeah, and they needed the a propeller to start their drive and that was it It was like, okay Now we go. Yeah

He's getting married after the game anyway. He doesn't need all the accolades during the game. It's true, I'm going to find that prop bet. Maybe throw a little bit of money on that, you never know. Why not?

All right. Well, thank you all for watching. Have a great Super Bowl. This is the last Thursday when this drops of the NFL season. The last Thursday we have of the 2023, 2024 NFL season, but I'm already ready for the next year. But obviously baseball is first. Only that was a Pro Bowl that we can talk about. I know, right? But make sure to go to YouTube, check out the brand new trailer for the chaotic clean, taller table tennis league. Obviously we announced it last week on the show, but I figured that was a much more of a hard launch.

But it's very exciting and we will see you next week. You good? Alright.
