"I understand why we're the underdog, I get that – we had some ups and downs during the season," K.C. coach Andy Reid said Thursday. "I never feel like an underdog going into a game, but I understand why it's been situated that way."
Added quarterback Patrick Mahomes : "The underdog thing, especially at this moment, I think's a little bit overplayed. We're two great football teams going up against each other, someone's got to be the underdog. They've been a great football team all year long, so they deserve to be the favorite in this game. All we can do is go out there and play our best football."
Lotta faith among our experts that will be sufficient.
