After playing 20 games and going through a grueling season full of injuries and comebacks, the Chiefs and 49ers are here, in America’s biggest game, and on America’s biggest stage. Here lies the legacies of two storied franchises. The Kansas City Chiefs are trying to win a Super Bowl for the first time in 50 years, while the Niners trying to return to glory after a 25 year absence. Both teams are trying to erase the past, which they’d both love to forget for different reasons. The Niners are trying to erase the taste of their Super Bowl 47 defeat, and the Chiefs are trying to erase the taste or 25 years of being one or two games away from glory.
Our Nick Athan describes the unique advantage the Kansas City Chiefs have ahead of their Super Bowl 54 matchup with the San Francisco 49ers.
In 2019, Gilmore reminded the football world why he was dubbed the league’s best corner the year prior, as he led the league in interceptions (six), as well as passes defended (20) en route to his second consecutive All-Pro nomination.
The New England Patriots were 12-4 this season. They finished as the third seed in the AFC and faced the Tennessee Titans in the Wild Card round. The Patriots’ struggles on offense came back to bite them and the Titans won 20-13. Let’s take a look back on the season and what 2020 will hold.
There has always been an aura for special plays to be made during every Super Bowl. The game creates a triumphant atmosphere that allows the games’ best-of-the-best to perform in a noble style that generates unforgettable moments; just like these 10.

The 2019 Bears season can be summed up by your choice of two words – disappointing failure or regression bug. Following the 2018 season, hopes were high. The Bears had a dominating defense and a progressing young offense with an offensive-minded coaching guru to navigate the ship. That was until all of those aforementioned positives took a step back this season. With an 8-8 record and third-place finish in the NFC North, it’s safe to say the Bears didn’t live up to the hype. However, there were some positives, along with some things to look forward to. Let’s take a look at what happened, the plan this offseason, and the expectations for next year.
Andersen Pickard previews the Super Bowl and examines what the San Francisco 49ers must do to win a ring.
This season was an up and down year for Los Angeles Rams’ running back Todd Gurley, to say the least. Gurley in recent years has always been in the conversation of best running back in the NFL. Particularly, because of his multi-faceted game and skillset. However, this season such chatter diminished for quite a few reasons.
Mike Ursery looks back at the five greatest comebacks in Super Bowl history.
Alex Haarmeyer shares a list of the craziest bets you can place ahead of Super Bowl LIV.
