has the nfl championship/super bowl ever featured the same two teams as in the opening game of the season?

Hadn't thought of this possibility. Also it's so weird that the Chiefs and Lions were the opening game. The Lions are a great story but they weren't really before this season happened.

That game worked out for most of you, although not for me.

According to my research (typing it into chat GPT) - never.

Edit, to elaborate I asked how many times there's been a rematch:

Super Bowl VI (1972): Dallas Cowboys vs. Miami Dolphins - They had met in the regular season, and the Cowboys won both matchups.

Super Bowl XVII (1982): Washington Football Team vs. Miami Dolphins - They had a regular-season matchup, and Washington won both games.

Super Bowl XXVIII (1993): Dallas Cowboys vs. Buffalo Bills - This was a rematch of Super Bowl XXVII, and they had also played each other in the regular season. The Cowboys won all three matchups.

Super Bowl XXXIX (2004): New England Patriots vs. Philadelphia Eagles - They played each other in the regular season, and the Patriots won both games.

Super Bowl LII (2017): New England Patriots vs. Philadelphia Eagles - They had a regular-season matchup, and the Eagles won both games.




This bodes badly for the 9er v baltimore prediction for 9ers fans.

This is missing the famous Giants Patriots 07 games. And I don't remember some of those other games existing like pats eagles in 04

Edit: are any of those rematches real? Both eagles and.pats ones listed are false

It took 6 prompts for me to get it to remember that game. Stupid rear end AI.

Also with the eagles games that year it looks like they played the ravens / browns / pitt etc.

Either way I didn't want to google it and I had the app open but it doesn't look like there's been too many regular season rematches and 0 first week rematches.

I need to go to bed but I’m up thinking about football. Fuuuuuck I just want the AFC Championship here in Baltimore, I am begging these birds to win tomorrow

Anyway I think Bills / Chiefs is a total pick ‘em so Bills because they’re home and I think their offense is a little more explosive

49ers are gonna score 80 points

Lions are gonna win pending Go*f

Yeah, aside from it getting poo poo wrong, one that is almost close to what was originally asked was the Bills and Cowboys playing in week 2 of 1993, a rematch of the previous years Super Bowl and then they ended up playing each other that year again. The Cowboys won both Super Bowls, but the Bills won the regular season game, in part because Emmitt Smith was holding out.

Is there any place to download/watch the game after the fact? I'm in Euroland and can't be hosed with a 2:30am kickoff for the Niners tonight but I would like to watch them crush the loving Packers.

When I was back in Aus, I used ten yard torrents frequently to download games after airing. Not sure if they are open or closed for signups atm however (or even if they're still operating). They were great for bigger market games and of course playoff games, although Jets games would take longer to be uploaded.

I just don't have a good feeling about the Bills based on how many injuries they have on defense. KC doesn't feel like they have the juice this year but it'll probably take the Ravens to knock them out.

Shanahan should spend all game putting Joe Barry in a torture chamber. I know everyone's losing their minds over Jordan Love right now but Dan Quinn's defense is a pretty solved quantity at this point by any OC with a clue and I'm fairly confident Wilks will make it at least a little tougher for Green Bay to score, especially if the Niners get a big lead early.

I find it pretty hard to see Houston beating the Ravens barring a total self-inflicted meltdown by Baltimore, Stroud rules but I think it would be difficult enough for them to score even if Dell were healthy.

Detroit should wipe the floor with Tampa, but Bowles might have enough tricks in his bag to get Jared Goof to reappear often enough for the Bucs to have a shot at it. Still taking the Lions for sure though, even though I think their defense is still too bad for them to be a serious contender.

That's not a bad time, however I think GMT+1 is usually pretty good for NFL watching. Redzone starts 7pm and goes through to 1am or so, it's only the *NF games that are tricky to fit around a work schedule. Fortunately the Jets are rarely in the primetime slot so works4me

NFL + is 7 bucks and lets you watch the games in full about an hour after they're done. You can also watch a condensed version without game breaks the next day.

looks like I can by the last month of gamepass without subscribing to the streaming platform so I think I'm gonna do that. It was fee on top of fee on top of surcharge on top of subscription when I looked into it at the start of the season.
