With the Super Bowl approaching there are only 4 teams remaining. These teams include: Buffalo Bills (13-4), Kansas City Chiefs (15-2), Philadelphia Eagles (14-3), and the Washington Commanders (12-5).

The top contenders will face off at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana for Super Bowl LIX on February 9th. The halftime show, which many are excited about, will be performed by Kendrick Lamar, a native of nearby city, Compton.

The favorites to win include the Eagles and the Chiefs with CBS Sports stating that the “No. 2 seed Philadelphia is a six-point favorite against No. 6 seed Washington in the NFC Championship….[while] the Chiefs are two-point favorites…”

Still, as we get closer to the playoffs coming to an end, there is a lot of disagreement regarding who's going to actually win it all.

Some say that it's going to be a good run, others may think there's little to no chance of an upset, and it's obvious who's going to win it all.

“The Eagles will win because Jalen Hurts is tough,” said Hill.

Typically, the performance of the quarterback can be a highlight for fans and the game as a whole. Though the underdogs, the Commanders have their own powerhouse in QB Jayden Daniels. Jordan Dajani, of CBS Sports history to throw for 500 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions, and rush for 75 yards through two playoff games.”

Who is the best team remaining? Who do you think is winning and how is it going down?
