One Reason Your Favorite Team Will Win Super Bowl 59

No two teams in the playoff race have had more different experiences trotting backup quarterbacks onto the field than the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers.

Right now, Cincinnati is on a three-game win streak and sits as the No. 6 seed as they head to Acrisure Stadium to take on the faltering Steelers, who have lost three in a row.

As it turns out, Mitchell Trubisky isn’t very good and Pittsburgh had to shift to third-string Mason Rudolph in hopes of sparking an offense that can’t get out of its own way.

Meanwhile, when the world thought the Bengals season was done, Jake Browning started to look like the guy who led Washington to the College Football Playoff in 2016. The NFL odds give Browning and Co. the edge as the favorites in a …

The Eagles are a prime example of what happens when your organization is rooted in dysfunction. It’s easy to see that this 2020 squad is absolutely horrendous. But why are we surprised that this team is trash? The 23-17 loss to the Seahawks on Monday Night Football solidified a few things. Their franchise quarterback leads the league in interceptions and off-target incompletions while only completing 58 percent of his passes. They don’t have a wide receiver who can create separation in the passing game, let alone take the top off a defense. They have an offensive line that lacks depth and has given up the most sacks in the league (46).
