Does this Super Bowl seem underhyped?

Superbowl actually is a good match up. But yes the Chiefs three peat is just not gaining traction. Some view the league as favoring the Chiefs as well. Ticket prices are collapsing from an obscene level to begin with. NFL to me is slowing in fan interest and money grab with Prime, Netflix and Peacock streaming as only those games can be seen there. You can only bang the folks for so much until costs overcome interest.
It’s definitely not under-hyped out here in Kansas City!
Since the Steelers really haven’t been competitive during this Chiefs run, I can objectively appreciate what they’re doing in a way I never could with Brady’s Patriots. The buildup to this game feels similar to Super Bowl XLII when New England was going for 19-0. The fact that we could have a three-peat Super Bowl champion in the salary cap era (which is supposed to create more parity) is pretty remarkable.
Mahomes will go down as one of the best QBs of all-time, so I’ll have no problem seeing him defeat Philly tomorrow (a city I could never root for)… although I'm starting to get a little nervous they may tie us for Super Bowls soon.
As someone with several obnoxious Philly cousins… we’ll have to agree to disagree.
Of course it is. It's been obvious all along. I mean have you ever looked really close at the back of the dollar bill? I mean REALLY close?? Everyone always gets so caught up with the blatant Illuminati symbols but they always overlook the most obvious sign. One must simply look closer and understand latin to realize the extent of the conspiracy.
How is streaming games different from games behind a paywall on ESPN, NFL Network or back in the day TNT? Cable is on its last breaths and streaming has the viewers.
Fan interest is so low that many people are expecting tonight's game to be the most watched football game ever.

Eagles won this game, in large part, thanks to pressuring Mahomes (although they haven’t necessarily sent blitzes). It begs the question why the Steelers didn’t try making him more uncomfortable when they played on Christmas Day? It was the same critique I had about the way they played Brady.
I kind of think, even though the NFL and the media try to just shove the Super Bowl down our throats I think the season is too long and people start to tune out. I’m happy KC lost but, I didn’t watch the entire game. I’m glad Kenny & Maddox get rings. But, that’s about it.
Give it another year or two backing up Hurts, and I think he’ll get another shot at starting in the league.
Congrats, anyone that watched the halftime show has a legit case for assault against the NFL. The Super Bowl has been a garish celebration of degeneracy for a long time.
It’s the pageantry. 😆
I saw someone post here how important the “pageantry” is. Funny this modern American man.
Just my opinion, but adding the 17th game and pushing the Super Bowl to the second weekend of February hurts interest.
I think you might be referring to my Super Bowl logo post
is that not what we love about college football? The band, the traditions, and everything else that separates it from the NFL?
I think it’ll eventually be pushed back a week further once the 18th regular season game is added. That way, everyone can get off the next day for President’s Day.
I think you mean tradition.I think you might be referring to my Super Bowl logo post
Logo excitement is best left for the ladies. Since apparently the ladies love football now.
I wouldn’t call it excitement (although I am a card-carrying member of Uni-Watch.com). For me, the logo symbolizes the corporatism and staleness that’s taken over the league under Goodell.
That is all of America. Money and comfort is the primary daily pursuit.
