    I can actually support the Rams and wouldn’t mind seeing them go the distance.

    Anyone but the Bucs for me. Love the underdogs.

    Happy with any of:
    Pack - Aaron is too good to retire with only one ring
    Chiefs - Mahomes is some player
    Rams - fun to watch
    Bengals - love to see Cincinatti/the world burn. Burrow is some talent
    Titans - espeically if they get Meast Henry back
    Bills - the mafia are crazy!
    49ers - for the legacy

    I'd like to have a new QB win their 1st ring.

    Not many active QBs with a ring these days.

    I like the Rams though. They remind me a lot of the Bucs from last year. Lots of parallels.

          I watched the ESPN 30 for 30 about the great Bills era with Marv Levy, Jim Kelly and Thurmon Thomas. One of those teams who were so good but had the misfortune to front up against better teams in the big game, and found ways to shoot themselves in the foot. It would be a lovely story, especially with Jim Kelly fighting cancer. Invite Kelly, Thomas, Bebe and a bunch of the other players to the SB and film the whole thing

            Marv Levy and his wife once sat next to me in the O'Hare departure lounge. He's still alive at 96.

            That Bills team from the 1990s lost their 4 SBs to NFC East teams. The first loss to the Giants was the heartbreaker.

              He could come along too! Imagine them celebrating with the current Bills if they won?

                Tom Brady is older than the 3 head coaches on the other remaining NFC teams (Shanahan, McVay, LaFleur).

                Speaking of Shanahan, McVay & LaFleur this has to burn Washington Football Team fans up.

                    You know it still burns Thomas up, the others too. Bebe was the only one that won a ring, but I'm sure he would have loved to have won one in Buffalo

                        by the way, for some light entertainment, if you are on reddit, go to the Kansas City Chiefs subreddit. Their meme game is on point.

                              That basically sums up his career. I respect him as he's tough as nails, doesn't ever pout and is a good leader. He's never going to be a top 10 QB in the League but you can win playoff games with him. Not sure you can ever win a Super Bowl with him though unless you get very lucky (i.e. Trent Dilfer with the 2000 Ravens).

                                Would have won a SB last time when SF had the best D in the league and the best run game too. Just unlucky to run into the buzzsaw that is Patrick Mahomes

                                  Bengals a possible underdog upset if Burrows and Chase can get going. Best combo in the game at the moment. They apparently have some key injuries in the defence team though. Nothing to lose and no expectations.
                                  Maybe a high scoring close game?

                                    Bengals are a huge shout. Playing well, full of confidence, and Burrow is legit

                                    Titans have some top drawer guys coming back, but there is always the question mark over how good they will be after a lay-off. If Henry comes back in even close to the same form then Cincy are in for a long night.

                                    Should be an excellent weekend of football!

                                      My money is on the Titans in that game. Mike Vrabel is a heck of a coach who has gotten the Titans to the 1 seed without a star QB and without Henry for half the season.

                                        Interesting stat that Titans have the second worst defence against receivers. Burrows has been hitting his receivers really well with Chase being one of the top all season.

                                        I live in hope but still as an underdog supporter. I have been 'following' the Bengals since the late 80s without shouting about it basically because there has been zero to shout about. Back then I was flatting with friends in London and Channel4 had started showing NFL on Sunday nights. Without knowing anything about the game we all picked a team and followed them through the season. I chose the Bengals simply because I liked their helmets.
                                        30 odd years later I get a little something to get excited about.
