The 49ers are the NFC’s No. 1 seed. The Chiefs finished the regular season as the AFC’s No. 2 team.
The Niners are an even bet to win the Super Bowl. If we go back to Jan. 21, 2019, the Niners opened at 30-1. The odds shifted to 40-1 in mid-August.
The Chiefs head into Sunday’s game at -120. The line opened at 7-1 and jumped to 15-1 in late October.
And, on Sunday, it all comes down to the final score.
