To add another crazy parallel to the mix, both teams will run on to the field with a Kielce brother. Travis is a tight end for the chiefs and Jason is the Eagles’ centre. Weird.
QB Patrick Mahones of the Chiefs has been to the showpiece game twice before, with a win and a loss on his record, while the Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is making his Super Bowl debut. Mahomes was the league MVP, Hurts was the runner up.
Will Mahomes big game experience be the difference on the day? Both squads have enviable receiving corps and we could see one of the higher scoring Super Bowl games in a while. For the neutrals, let’s hope so.
