Hoping Baltimore and Detroit just because. At least then one or both are starting a new chapter.

Vegas' lines are set in a way that supports your theory on a low-scoring game. Over/under is 44.5 for BAL/KC and 51.5 for DET/SF.

Super Bowl will be anti-climactic if it's Baltimore and San Francisco and plays out anything like their Christmas Day game. Giving San Francisco time to get healthy probably negates that worry though.

Networks would probably love a 49ers-Chiefs game. Could be a fun one to watch as well. At least there'd be the novelty of not having seen them play each other in a fairly meaningful game in the past six weeks.

Miami was banged up but the Chiefs embarrassed them in the Wild Card. They just beat a "hotter-than-anyone" Buffalo. They've been discounted but probably hadn't played their best until now and may still have another gear. @Van Hagar thought you were spot-on about Mahomes' legacy if he's able to pull this one off. With Kelce nearing retirement, this might be one of his last great chances for awhile unless there's a major acquisition or roster overhaul coming in the next two to three years.

The game that I don't think anyone is really dying to see would be Detroit-Kansas City. Just seems like one of those games where one team (Detroit) is happy to be there but doesn't have a clue about what it actually takes to win it, and the other (Kansas City) is treating it like a business trip. Those usually don't end well.
