Epic Super Bowl Sunday Battle Tonight – February 11

Super Bowl LVIII is finally here. After a regular season that saw the Detroit Lions upset Kansas City in the season opener, Aaron Rodgers go down four plays into the season, and Lamar Jackson win another NFL MVP; it all comes down to this. The Chiefs will have an opportunity to become the first team since New England to repeat as Super Bowl champs. Kansas City will face San Francisco, a team the Chiefs beat in Super Bowl LIV back in 2020. 

The 49ers started the 2023 season with five straight wins before losing three in a row. San Francisco regained its composure and finished the season 7-2. One of the losses was to Baltimore, which had the best regular season record in the NFL. The other was a meaningless loss to the Rams in Week 18 when the Niners rested a bunch of their starters. After wins over Green Bay and Detroit in the playoffs, San Francisco is back in the Super Bowl for the eighth time. The 49ers have won the Super Bowl five times.

2024 Super Bowl Comes Down to Defense

Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes and San Francisco’s Brock Purdy get all the hype. Mahomes, of course, is a two-time NFL MVP and a two-time Super Bowl MVP who has completed over 73 percent of his passes in the last two playoff games. Purdy threw for 4,280 yards and 31 touchdowns this regular season. San Francisco had the third-highest scoring offense in the NFL averaging 28.6 points per game. 

For all the talk about offense on both sides of the ball, both of these teams have outstanding defenses. In tonight’s Super Bowl, it will likely come down to a defensive stop at some point that determines the winner of the 58th Lombardi Trophy. The Chiefs rank second in the league in points allowed per game (17.1) and the 49ers are right behind in third at 17.7. 

The Chiefs faced three of the NFL’s top-six scoring offenses in the playoffs and held them to an average of 13.7 points per game. The only weakness in Kansas City’s defense is against the run. However, the Chiefs held Baltimore, the top-ranked rushing team in the NFL, to just 81 yards in the AFC championship game. If San Francisco wants to add a sixth Super Bowl win, the Niners third-ranked rushing offense is going to have to find a way to get it done.

It’s Super Bowl Sunday!

Is there really anything else that matters on this Sunday? Super Bowl Sunday? There was an interesting move in the NBA, but today is really all about one thing – the Super Bowl. 

Here’s what’s trending today.

• Toney out: Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney is not expected to play tonight in Super Bowl LVIII. Toney has struggled with injuries and inconsistent play all season long.
• Thuney out: Yep, you can’t make this stuff up. Toney and Thuney, as in Chiefs LG Joe Thuney, are out for tonight’s Super Bowl. Thuney has a torn pectoral muscle that will prevent him from playing.
• McKinnon activated: The Chiefs activated RB Jerick McKinnon from injured reserve. His status for tonight’s game has yet to be determined.
• Lowry goes home: Guard Kyle Lowry was traded from the Miami Heat to Charlotte long before last week’s trade deadline. Now, Lowry has agreed to a contract buyout so that he can join his hometown Philadelphia 76ers. Lowry went to Cardinal Dougherty in Philly before playing collegiately at Villanova.
