Mahomes and the Chiefs

Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs have been there and done that. They beat the 49ers and then recently took down the Eagles. Kansas City had a loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Super Bowl during this dynasty. The signal caller is tough to slow down. He and the Chiefs got off to a slow start, which is part of the reason why they started the postseason with an 11-6 record.

Kansas City took care of the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens in the postseason. In those three games, the Chiefs scored 70 points, and allowed just 41. The key to the postseason success has been great defense, and Mahomes and his ability to move the chains and get into the end zone.

Travis Kelce and Isiah Pacheco are doing most of their offensive activity. Kelce has three touchdown receptions, while Pacheco has three rushing touchdowns. Rashee Rice is taking up the rest of the chunk of offense for the Chiefs. Kansas City finished the regular season scoring 21.8 points per game.

49ers Run on McCaffrey

Just like America runs on Dunkin Donuts, the San Francisco 49ers run on Christian McCaffrey. In turn, the former Stanford running back runs on opposing defenses. McCaffrey has scored touchdowns in four of his last five games, and during that time has six touchdowns. He went the first five weeks of the season, and scored in each of them.

George Kittle is another big time threat for the 49ers. When Brock Purdy need a reliable target in the middle of the field, or someone to move the chains, he looks to the former Iowa star. Kittle is mixed in with Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel, as all three are deadly in the passing game.

The difference in this game is going to be the 49ers defense. They have been very good, allowing 26 points per game to the Packers and Lions in postseason play. Late in the season, the 49ers allowed 33 to Baltimore, so there are definitely issues to be worked out.

Super Bowl LVIII: The Verdict is In

There you have it. In the end, the Kansas City Chiefs are going to win Super Bowl LVIII. The Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl for back to back seasons, and for the third time in five seasons.

We expect a fun game, but the Chiefs are too much for the 49ers here. Enjoy the game and best of luck if you are interested in betting on the game. Our pick, without odds – the Kansas City Chiefs over the San Francisco 49ers.

Who Can Really Win a Super Bowl in 2019?

Previous Betting News

Super Bowl odds provide great clues as to how teams might perform in the upcoming season. But, odds don’t tell the whole story. For example, the odds on the Jacksonville Jaguars to win Super Bowl 52 were around +15000 in most sportsbooks before Week 1.

Jacksonville was a game away from punching their ticket to the Super Bowl. That means the Jags could have scored at 150 to 1 odds to win Super Bowl 52. Philadelphia was a +4000 shot to win Super Bowl 52 before the season started. They won it.

If odds aren’t as predictive as they’ve got a reputation of being, how can Super Bowl 53 future bettors decide on which team to wager?

Who Can Really Win a Super Bowl in 2019?

The place to start is to throw out odds. Work your way backwards by throwing out odds, handicapping NFL teams, and deciding which teams can win the Super Bowl…no matter their odds.

Below, are a list of teams that can win the Super Bowl in 2019.

AFC Teams

Jacksonville Jaguars

Jacksonville projects to have the best defense in the AFC. They should handle the Patriots this season because New England will be without Nate Solder, their left tackle the past few seasons. Jacksonville probably should have beaten the Patriots in the 2018 AFC Championship.

They didn’t. This season, with an improved offense, and a lock down defense, Jacksonville should easily march to the playoffs. The Jags are as solid as it gets.

Houston Texans

The key for the Texans will be the health of QB DeShaun Watson. Watson is expected to be ready to go for training camp. With a healthy Watson, Houston’s offense is as dynamic as any in the NFL.

The defense remains one of the best in the league. There’s no reason to feel that the Texans can’t pull off a Super Bowl victory in Watson’s second season. The Eagles did in Wentz’s second season.

Denver Broncos

Denver’s defense should be a Top 5 unit. The schedule isn’t nearly as formidable as many believe it to be while the offense improved a ton after John Elway signed QB Case Keenum. If RB Royce Freeman can become a rookie rock star and the offensive line stays healthy, the Broncos could win the Super Bowl.

New England Patriots

The Patriots can win the Super Bowl because they’re the New England Patriots. As long as QB Tom Brady is there, coach Bill Belichick will find a way. Also, the AFC East remains one of the worst divisions in the NFL. That means New England is a lock to make the playoffs.

NFC Teams

Philadelphia Eagles

The schedule is brutal, but a team with a Super Bowl MVP as a backup quarterback should make the playoffs. Once the Eagles make the playoffs, they’ll have a good shot to repeat as Super Bowl Champions.

L.A. Rams

The Rams improved the wide receiver position by trading for WR Brandin Cooks. Cooks will spread the field. That should leave ample opportunities for both Pharoh Cooper and Robert Woods. RB Todd Gurley is the best in the NFL.

The defense should be better this season than it was last season. The reason? Ndamukong Suh at nose tackle, and Aqib Talib and Marcus Peters at the cornerback positions.

New Orleans Saints

The Saints boast one of the top defenses in the NFL. New Orleans’ rushing attack is the best in the NFL while future hall of fame QB Drew Brees continues to play at a high-level.

Minnesota Vikings

Minnesota’s defense was the best in the NFL last season. The D could be just as good this season if not better. The Vikes signed QB Kirk Cousins. He’s got a couple of nice targets in Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs. Also, RB Dalvin Cook should be ready to roll after an injury marred rookie season.

Based on my handicapping, the Super Bowl 53 winner will come from this list: Jacksonville, Houston, Denver, New England, Philadelphia, L.A. Rams, New Orleans, and Minnesota.
