A little more than two years ago, a pair of NFL teams gambled on quarterbacks who had all kinds of potential but were far from a sure thing.
Both guessed right.
The Kansas City Chiefs will meet the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV on Feb. 2 in Miami Gardens, Florida. The 6:30 p.m. game will be televised by Fox.
Oddsmakers opened the line at pick ’em in a title game featuring one franchise, San Francisco, trying to win a record-tying sixth Lombardi Trophy against another, Kansas City, making its first appearance in the big game in 50 years.
Their quarterbacks: Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs and Jimmy Garoppolo of the 49ers.
