Man these dark horse Super Bowl candidates are fire!!

THey're ruining teams draft picks. Made the Cards move up, now the pats.

Wow - epic burn when they didn’t have their qb.

You mean their QB who nearly got benched before they fired Canada? The QB that hasn't accounted for an offensive TD since November 3rd? That QB?

Yeah, I'm totally sure the Steelers would have bodied the Pats with the amazing Kenny Pickett at QB.

[Heyward]

Dude the Eagles lost like half their starting secondary to FA. They were top 5 in Int's a year ago, and now they are bottom 5. This is not the same Eagles defense as last year.

They still have Bradberry and Slay. Just traded for Byard. Their secondary is more than fine. The ILB's were/are a bigger problem than the secondary.

Byard ain't what he used to be. He'll probably find trouble finding a starting gig this off-season. Could just call it quits.

You mean one of the worst QBs in the NFL? Good lord you're clueless

It's OK to admit when you're wrong

[Tapate50]

I don’t think less of people/posters when they admit they’re wrong.

In fact the opposite. I think most people on the anonymous web don’t like it and that’s where all this animosity comes from

Yeah how could they win without Kenny "Worse than Baker Mayfield" Pickett?

More likely your "dark horse" superbowl team is 7-2 in games decided by 1 score. Remember last year's vikings? Or Giants? You can win games and be a bad team.

Teams get it together at later stages in the year and become a hot team. Steelers don’t look like that at all but stranger things have happened.

Wouldn’t matter anyway. Niners are head and shoulders better than the rest of the nfl.

Avatar Bet on Niners winning it all? Nice simple and easy.

A field bet versus one team? Doesn’t seem very smart for me. Plus online bets are just dumb and don’t make sense to me.

Everyone knows Niners have been best team the last four years. Now they just need to win a title.

[Heyward]

Niners have by far the best roster, you just never know what can happen in a single game with injuries and bounce of the ball, etc. It's one game, not best of 7. It is hard to win it all, who knows what could happen in the playoffs.

I mean that's the most homeristic opinion for sure. Last 4 years (or are you only going back to 2020?) the Chiefs have won 2 superbowls, and lost another, Niners have only made it to the bowl once. Niners didn't even make the playoffs in 2020 as they were 6-10.

If we go on regular season play (only can do since 2020 as that's how far back ftn goes)

Niners have 3 top 5s a 1, 3 and 5

Bills have 3 a 1, 2, and 3

KC have 3 3,4,5

So they don't even really have the best case arguement for best regular season team of the last 4 years either.

In fact if you do the "average" rating of those 3 teams. SF's average is 5.25. Bills are at 3. Chiefs are at 4.5.

I mean you're so confident, I wanted to see if you'd back it up.

2020 year was marred by injuries and you know that. Other than chiefs which have an argument Niners easily been the best team.

Ahhh classic excuses showing up.

You're the one who said 4 years ago. You could have gone with 3 years ago including this year.

No because it was clear Niners were at worst the second best team starting in 2019. 2020 was only due to injuries as the following three years proved out.

You know these things but hate that I’m right and you’re wrong.

It’s a common theme.

What are you talking abotu?

I know no one who says that someone is the best, when by no measurable metric they're the best.

Have they been the best regualr season team? No

Do they have a title? No

There's no metric they're tops.

Cumulatively for the period they’ve been the best team with only the chiefs having an argument.

I remember at start of year you didn’t think Niners were close to top talent and now you say purdy excells because of elite level talent.

I didn't say the Niners weren't close to top talent, just listed other teams who also had multiple positions with elite talent.
.
Niners are a great team.
