San Francisco 49ers

EA After years of wildly incorrect predictions, Madden 24 has snapped its Super Bowl losing streak. This year’s official simulation of Super Bowl LVIII was nearly right on the money, correctly predicting a narrow win for the Kansas City Chiefs. As has become tradition, EA simulated this year’s Super Bowl matchup in its flagship football series days before the big game. Last week, it used Madden 24 to pit the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers head to head. The final result? A Chiefs win with a 30 to 28 score.…

“He loves to play the game, and he loves to help his team win. It’s not a selfish thing," the Kansas City Chiefs head coach shared about Kelce's apparent criticism of a bad call during the big game Super Bowl LVIII ended with a triumph for the Kansas City Chiefs, a feat that colored all of the moments leading up to the big win with rose-colored glasses. The team played with a passion that at one point escalated to the height of Travis Kelce almost knocking over head coach Andy Reid, who the tight end…

Bust out the blue sequins, polish up your roller skates, and start sending those congratulatory gifts to Taylor Swift. As the country participated in the gratuitous orgy of capitalism otherwise known as Super Bowl LVIII, the real ones know that even though the Chiefs came out on top in a down-to-the-wire overtime win over the 49ers, the bona-fide highlights of every Super Bowl Sunday are those super spots. Judging by motifs of the past, some years the commercials are downright weird, while other eras the bulk focused…

The Kansas City Chiefs are still the Super Bowl champs. The team beat the San Francisco 49ers to win Super Bowl LVIII in overtime on Sunday with a final score of 25-22. It was only the second time in NFL history that a Super Bowl game has gone into overtime, following Super Bowl LI in 2017, when the New England Patriots beat the Atlanta Falcons. The 2024 Super Bowl, which aired on CBS and streamed on Paramount+, took place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Super Bowl LVIII marked the…

Following Sunday night’s Super Bowl — where Patrick Mahomes led the Kansas City Chiefs to an overtime win over the San Francisco 49ers for their third Super Bowl victory in three years, with a beer-chugging Taylor Swift and a number of other celebs looking on in Vegas — and the post-game premiere of some generic CBS show nobody cares about, Stephen Colbert hosted a special weekend episode of The Late Show. Colbert’s Late Show episode was taped after the Super Bowl, which meant that we got his commentary on the…

It was only the second overtime Super Bowl game in history, and the Chiefs won their second consecutive title — and third in five years The first half of Super Bowl LVIII proved so fruitless for the defending-champion Kansas City Chiefs that it drove their star tight end Travis Kelce to throw a sideline tantrum (nearly knocking over coach Andy Reid in the process), and so boring for the Allegiant Stadium crowd in Vegas that it brought his girlfriend Taylor Swift to chug a beer on the jumbotron.…

Her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs were losing at the time, so she probably needed it Here’s one important thing we learned during Super Bowl LVIII: Taylor Swift knows how to slam a beer like a champ. Late in the second quarter of the big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, and with her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Chiefs losing 10-0 — and the Chiefs fumbling and dropping the ball all over the place, leading to a sideline meltdown from her beau that nearly…

Kansas City Chiefs tight end was none too happy with being taken out of the game during a running play that resulted in a key fumble Hell hath no fury like a Travis Kelce scorned. With 13:01 left in the second quarter of Super Bowl LVIII between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, and the Chiefs down 3-0, star quarterback Patrick Mahomes — a generational talent and the best player on the field for either team — completed a 52-yard heave on the run to wide receiver Mecole Hardman…

On Super Bowl Sunday in Las Vegas, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will play in their fourth Super Bowl in the past five years, facing off against the San Francisco 49ers. Mahomes, the team’s quarterback, is the best player in football, maybe the best American athlete of his generation, and one of the most ingenious and thrilling on-field performers you could ever imagine. You should check him out if you get a chance, he’s really great.  Patrick Mahomes was raised in Tyler, Texas, by his mother. His…

The post-Super Bowl time slot is the most coveted in television and this year is going to CBS’ lame new show Tracker. But it has a very rich history After Sunday night’s Super Bowl, CBS will debut Tracker, a drama starring Justin Hartley as a “rewardist” — a word repeated many times through the early episodes, even as other characters rightly insist that it sounds made-up — who helps retrieve missing people or objects for a fee. It is a generic CBS procedural that will either…
