Chris Brockman · Dec 2, 2024
Brockman declares the road to the Super Bowl goes through Buffalo and Philadelphia — both will be No. 1 seeds — and he states outright that the Bills and Eagles will meet in the Super Bowl. He also says Russell Wilson has been a top-five quarterback since returning, predicts the Packers reach the divisional round again, and insists both the Chiefs and Ravens will be one-and-done in the playoffs (Houston beating Baltimore, Bo Nix's Broncos winning at Arrowhead).
“The road to the Super Bowl goes through Buffalo and Philadelphia.”
