Tampa became the first team to do that last year. Now the Rams will be hosting a super bowl. Think about that. It literally never happened until last season and now it's occurred two years in a row. What are the chances. In 2023 the super bowl is scheduled to be hosted by the Cardinals in Glendale. I would say 2 in 56. 1 Quote

But, not every team is able to host a super bowl. It's generally reserved for southern/warmer destinations or indoor stadiums if they are in the north. I can recall one being in NY after Metlife Stadium was built but they aren't going to play a super bowl at Lambeau Field or Heinz Field outside in the winter elements. I would say based on this, there are about a dozen venues that receive consideration to host a super bowl every season. But obviously out of those dozen teams, the chances of them making the playoffs and then winning 2 or 3 games in the playoffs to get there is slim. This may be more complicated that I thought...

I wouldn’t count Joe Burrow out, and not saying I could do the job but Sean McVay tried to give away the last 2 games in my opinion with some of his challenges and clock management. With that said I’m rooting for Matthew Stafford because I like him as a humble human being as well as a quarterback, but I certainly wouldn’t be upset if the Bengals win. Just hoping for one last good game this season ? Edited January 31, 2022 by Eric 26 Added content Quote

Imo AFC - KC and Tenn NFC - Green bay and Tampa bay. Anyone else to win it would be a shocker. For anyone following bird’s lead pipe lock pick for the super bowl…… I think I also saw a bucs vs pats super bowl pic from ya in this thread too 3 Quote

A couple of roommates I used to have were heavy into sports gambling and online poker while I lived with them. They sucked me into the sports gambling for a couple years. I've mostly given up on that now other than maybe one or two prop bets during the super bowl or picking a team before the season starts or during the playoffs. Betting on the NFL is generally a losing proposition though because the teams are so even and the competitive balance is very difficult to predict. I did much better when I bet on college football because there is a much wider gap between the good teams and the crappy ones. If you look at the weekly spreads in the fall you'll see what I'm referring to. Nowadays I'd rather just invest any disposable income. 1 Quote
