MIAMI – For the Kansas City Chiefs, a victory on Sunday in Super Bowl LIV would: end a 50-year championship drought, mark the biggest step in the rise of superstar Patrick Mahomes and bolster Andy Reid’s brilliant coaching legacy.
For the San Francisco 49ers, a victory on Sunday would: give one of the league’s all-time great franchises its sixth championship, help ease the 28-3 pain that Kyle Shanahan suffered in a previous Super Bowl and be quite the turnaround for Richard Sherman, one of the 49ers’ top defenders.
