Game is on! What's your predictions etc?
My money is on the Eagles

Mahomes is hobbled after that tackle. I think Philly will win. But who knows, Mahomes is a tough kid.

1/2 time is so awesome. ROTFLMAO

My wife and daughters liked the halftime show.

the 1/2 time show was meh...but man did Chris Stapleton killed it singing the National Anthem or what? One of the best renditions I've heard at a SB. I am not even a country music fan but goddamn

[linthat22]

So who won and how would ya'll rate the game overall? btw, I'm not a sports fan, so I had no idea this was happening haha

Chiefs won. It was a good game overall. It was close until until the very end, which is what you'd expect at that level.
I felt like the Chiefs decision to run the clock then get a field goal when the Eagles would not have any time to react was good strategy, but also a bit of a cheap move. But I understand why they did it and a SB win is a SB win. They did play a good game so I didn't feel like it was unfair or undeserved, but it was a strange ending.

The Chiefs played much better and kicked there azz in the second half

I did not love the refs call against the eagles but overall a good game

PS - The start spangled banner by Chris Stapleton was damn impressive

100%

The Cheifs dominated the second half. It wasn't even close. Mahomes is the best QB and player in the NFL at this point.

The Eagles defensive coordinator should be fired. I counted two plays the entire second half where they rushed more than their front 4. And what's with the Eagles CB's running to the other side of the field when a guy goes in motion for two steps?

Yes. And that was a really WTF moment, because they had a solid defensive line the whole season. I thought that if the Eagles were going to win it would be on the strength of their defense. And it completely fell apart.

I only recognized two songs, but i thought the “show” was impressive.

Yeah I think her ability to perform and interact with the dancers was a bit hindered by the fact she is pregnant.

Rihanna is a very solid singer. I changed my tune on some of this stuff after I met my wife (who is a vocal coach with formal music training). She was explaining to me that Rihanna's stuff is not easy to sing. I don't like her music style and we tend to lump every pop artist in the same category as the Britney Spears of the world.
But people like Rihanna, Beyonce, Demi Lovato, Christina Aguilera are real deal singers. Like them or not.

Same with Babyface, who played America The Beautiful in the beginning. Another solid musician with real jazz/r&b chops. Not everyone in pop music is talentless.

I think Rihanna did the best she could do given the circumstances. Her touring band is actually really solid, she does not lip sync on her actual shows and she even has Nuno on lead guitar (he was at the SB but barely did anything, I guess due to time constraints, but he does rip some solos on on her live shows).

So idk, she's alright with me.
