Colin Cowherd · Jan 24, 2025

Cowherd picked the Eagles to beat the Commanders 34-24 in the NFC Championship Game and the Bills to beat the Chiefs 28-27 in the AFC Championship Game, adding that the winner of Bills-Chiefs wins the Super Bowl and that he's been on Buffalo to win it all. He also expects Buffalo and Kansas City to be playoff teams again next season.

I'm going to take the Bills to win a close game outright... twenty eight to twenty seven.

  • But I've been on the Bills for a month to win the Super Bowl. The winner of this game, in my opinion, hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
