    If the Chiefs win, the Twitter meltdown will be epic (mostly involving those who hate everything that they believe to be true about San Francisco....).

    Hoping it's a good game, but I'm for the land of Nod.

    I’ll be awake. Still sobbing after the Ravens defeat. 

    Really tough one to call. It’s hard to bet against Mahomes. That said…I’m going Niners.

    I bet on the Chiefs, was a little surprised that 49’ers were favourites.

    Haven’t looked for a couple of weeks but they were one point favourites. Suppose a lot of that is to do with their NFC record over the year and being the one seed.

    Just chucked a fiver on CMC 1st td, Kelce over 6.5 catches and a Niners win 8.65/1

    I don’t like those first TD bets as you don’t even know who has the ball to start yet.

    How many of you Lifers are staying up very late tonight?
    Just woke up from my tactical nap. WFH and flexible working means I don't have to start until 10 tomorrow which is lovely.

    Very hard to picka winner but I've learnt the hard way before to bet against the Chiefs so I'll go for them, I think Spags will nullify the 9ers.

    As always, the main challenge is not falling asleep during the extended half time. 

    WFH tomorrow but will need to be up at 07:00 to get kids ready for school.

    Would usually WFH on a Monday but stupidly agreed to have a new starter join my team tomorrow. Think I’ll be setting them up and hiding away.

    I'll be watching. Probably stick with Sky as they will stick with the CBS commentary.

    For those that only watch the Superbowl.and don't actually follow normally, here's something to consider

    Remember the Tight End needs to stop penetration in the back, otherwise the ball could be fumbled or they'll get a sack, or if they get double-teamed there's a chance the ball carrier will get stripped, so they need to have gap discipline and not shoot the pockets with extra men.
    However if they can protect their pocket and stretch the backside, they can release some deep balls to the slot or pound the inside

    My 13 year old watched first quarter with me and was explaining rules to him but think left him more confused!!

    said this is probably the worst game you can watch as a first timer as the game has a lot more stoppages compared to a regular season game.

    Does it seem like longer breaks than usual this year?

    Christ, glad I didn’t bet the over on points. 3 passing TDs each isn’t looking great either.

    Talk about highs and lows.

    53 yard pass immediately followed by Pacheco losing the ball on the very next play.

    Only here to cheer the other team in SF. However, the whole USA vibe is getting me very excited ( no, not that way ) for seeing the Giants in NYC in May! Come on the niners!

    Fingers crossed that Kelce gets a couple of targets in the next drive.

    I’m visualising Kelce throwing a lateral for the winning TD
    Kelce lateral? Try Jennings…
