The Diamondbacks being in the World Series had me thinking…
What if in the NFC you had a team like the Falcons go 9-8 with a -10 point differential to win the NFC south. They shock the world and make their way through the NFC playoffs by beating the Cowboys at home, somehow shocking the Eagles on the road and then getting matched up with a wild card Seahawks team that upset division rival 49ers in the divisional round. They beat Seattle in a close game in Atlanta to punch a ticket to the SB.
They go and face a 15-2 Chiefs team that is top 5 on offense and defense and has a +200 point differential. Patrick Mahomes looks as unstoppable as ever down the stretch of the regular season and postseason and KC blows their way through the Bills/Bengals to reach the SB.
What is the point spread in that Super Bowl?
Some of the older spreads are pretty funny. Washington was a 2 point favorite over the 72 Dolphins in their SB.
There has not been a spread over 4.5 since Super Bowl 43.
