Go Chiefs, I hate the iggles as much has any NFC south team

[Chaos]

Whichever team wins, the world at large loses, with Taylor Swift and the insufferable fanbases and never ending State Farm cringe ads.

i have no fugs to give about this game. i’ll be watching magnum pi reruns 

I binged the entire series some years back on Netflix. It's one of my favorites. R.I.P. Roger Mosley.

Living in Philadelphia for nearly a decade now. Eagles fans are insufferable and I will be more than happy if the Chiefs win. 
 

Unfortunately I do believe the Eagles have the better all around team and Saquon is the true X factor, can never ever count out Patrick Mahomes though.

Most Eagle fans are absolute assholes and they agree with being known for that.

Still going to pull for them against the Chiefs. If they lose, I'll sleep just fine. If they win, cool.

So you’re hoping for a 10 year reign?

Soul purpose of the game this year is to hang out with friends and family...enjoy some awesome food.   Not really into the matchup.  Pulling for the Iggles solely because of Saquon.

Gotta go with the eagles. edit: gotta go against the chiefs

Between the feeling that I think the chiefs got game changing calls in games that put them there and the total saturation level of ads and media featuring Kelse, Mahomes, and Reid, Im ready for the chiefs to go away

Not even watching this year, most dull pooperbowl ever

It all comes down to which team do you hate the least... for me it's the Eagles. I can't stand the sight of Travis Kelce anymore. Down with the Chiefs!

 

That being said, I probably won't even watch this one.

Yeah, fug the NFC East in its entirety and also this KC run is making Pats fans completely hysterical, so I love it. 

50% of the Pats fanbase will die from copium overdoses if Mahomes/Reid win again.

I hope Super Bowl ratings are down for the first time ever (even though if they were they’d lie and say they were the biggest viewership ever) so the NFL can stop fixing games. Who gives a F about the chiefs anymore? Stop rigging their games. Mahomes would be a B list QB back when you could hit their asses.

Iggles fans don't need another title to be even more insufferable

I'm all in on the Chiefs and have been for a few years now.  Mahomes is the best player in NFL history, period, and I feel privileged to be alive to witness his assault on the record books.

Star players always get preferential treatment. It's not nearly as bad in the NFL as say, the NBA, but it literally does happen in all major professional sports. In college the preferential fugery is absolutely off scale. It's been that way for decades.

It makes financial sense. Your stars players and teams drive fan interest and revenue. They care less about hardcore fans because they know very few of them are gonna go anywhere. Hence the pining after extremely casual followers(not even fans) with the Taylor Swift horseshit. It's a way to increase interest and revenue, although it will be predictably very temporary.

For all our bitching and complaining about the dumb European games, that has actually worked to create some lasting interest in Europe. And that is a project going back to the late 80's with the early iterations of NFL Europe. 

Same with the rule changes to foster more offensive play. Does the league really want Ricky Manning Jr. shutting down a star player because he can hang all over them? Do they want Peyton Manning getting knocked out by a rotational DL that dove at his knees?

These are all efforts to expand the fanbase, increase the value of the NFL and member franchises(like the initiatives to include the ultra wealthy only as owners) that ultimately are designed for maximum profitability and longevity.

It sucks for the fans but all of it makes logical sense and it isn't really some grand conspiracy.
