Now that we already have the full picture for the matchup on this year’s Super Bowl, everyone could not stop but talk about how their favorite team will take home the Lombardi Trophy. The result was a bit unexpected as many have root for a Packers Vs. Chiefs matchup in the Super Bowl.
However, the cards have been dealt, and the Buccaneers defeated the Packers in the Conference Championship game. Here are the projections of how the Super Bowl will end up for the two Super Bowl rivals.
The Projected Winner
The Chiefs had a rough start in their match with the Bills. Quarter one didn’t look good for the Chiefs where they haven’t scored a single point against the Bills. The first quarter ended with a 9-0 on the scoreboard in favor of the Bills.
However, the Chiefs are not letting the Bills embarrass them in their home field, and they recover thanks to Patrick Mahomes as he leads his team back to the Super Bowl. Mahomes was ruled out of the Playoffs due to a concussion. But after he passed the NFL concussion protocol, he is back on the field once again, and this time, he proved why he is dubbed as the greatest Quarterback in the NFL.
Mahomes performed as if he did not suffer from multiple injuries during the divisional round as he worked hard to help his team recover the control of the game. He once again performed his amazing trick passes that only he can accomplish towards Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce.
Hill caught nine passes for 172 yards, while Kelce caught thirteen for 118 yards and two scores. When the Chiefs started to recover the game, the Bills could not match their perfection. Mahomes’ performance will hopefully reflect in the MVP votes as he is undoubtedly the best Quarterback in the league, which makes him worthy of the award.
The Buffalo Bills are not an easy opponent. They have been dominant in the second half of the season, where they won twelve straight games. Winning that many games in a row are not easy, and only the best team can do that. And the Bills have proven that they are one of the best teams in the league.
For this reason, the Chiefs will most likely win the Super Bowl this year, as they have easily defeated the Bills with a 38-24 score. With Patrick Mahomes back in action and other notable Chiefs players who also gave such great performances, they will surely have a repeat in the Super Bowl 55.
Bucs Versus Chiefs In Week 12
The Super Bowl will not be the first matchup between both teams. They have already met in the field during the twelfth week of the NFL 2020 regular season, making the Super Bowl game a rematch for the Bucs and the Chiefs.
Since the first quarter of the week 12 game, the Chiefs have been very aggressive where Tyreek Hill landed two touchdowns. As the game finished, Hill had made a total of three touchdowns. The Chiefs continued to be aggressive throughout the game, where they dominated.
Will the Bucs Have Their Chance?
Will the Bucs turn the table and put the odds in their favor? Everyone that enters a match has a chance to win it, but what will it take for the Bucs to win the Super Bowl against the Chiefs? The odds from FanDuel are regularly updated by their oddsmaker to provide accurate information for their bettors. You can check their website to know whether the public’s preference has changed.
Well, it depends. The Bucs will need to study Mahomes carefully so that their star player Tom Brady will stop him from dominating the game like he always does. The Bucs will have the advantage in the Super Bowl as they will be playing on their home field, which will greatly impact their performance.
There was an explanation why most teams win in their home field, which is called a home-field advantage. First is the audience who boosts the confidence of the players that will manifest in their performances. When you are at your home stadium, all the audience will be your fans, and they will cheer loudly and proudly for their home team.
The second explanation of this trend is because the home team is already familiar with the field as they are doing their practices in that same location. The home team can easily move around and go past the opponent effortlessly as they are already accustomed to the field.
The second advantage the Bucs have is Tom Brady. Why would a team featuring a Quarterback with the most Super Bowl wins in history won’t have a chance to dominate the game? Brady has won six Super Bowls in his career, and he is now on the road for his seventh if he can outduel Mahomes.
Both teams have their advantages, but the Chiefs are the most favored team to win the Super Bowl 55. For most football enthusiasts, betting for the Chiefs will be the safest route for bettors to take.
Takeaway

What was predicted might not happen, but the majority of the time, it is always what the game turned out to be.
