Super Bowl Prediction

Super Bowl LV is finally here. Kanas City Chiefs at Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Literally. This Super Bowl will be the first to include a team playing in their own stadium. It won’t help.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers 
Pick: Chiefs 
Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady enters this game hoping to win his seventh Super Bowl. Instead, he loses his fourth Super Bowl.

One of my favorite players in this game, and any game that he plays, is Chiefs defender Tyrann Mathieu. It’d be wrong to box him into any one position. This nugget from Next Gen Stats shows his defensive versatility.

Mathieu’s snaps by position:

Safety: 508
Slot CB: 303
Outside LB: 115
Edge: 48
Inside LB: 43
Left CB: 11
Right CB: 5
Interior DL: 3

There isn’t a position on defense that Tyrann Mathieu hasn’t played this season.
