The candidates.
The champion is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Bruce Arians is the coach.
Super Bowl wins in 2002 and 2020.
The side can run and throw the ball. They've scored 30 points or more in five play-off wins, including the Super Bowl victory in Tom Brady's first season, so they're a tough team to stop.
Brady was the leader in touchdown passes and passing yards in the NFL this year, with his best ever return in a season. He is giving Old Father Time a run for his money because he has beaten everyone in the NFL.
Last year, Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski won the Super Bowl.
Their main stars will be receiver Mike Evans and tight end Rob Gronkowski. Brady and 'Gronk' are four-time Super Bowl winners, and the quarterback joined the team last season after coming out of retirement.
When the chips are down, the combination of Brady and Gronkowski is often the difference between a win and a loss.
The Los Angeles Rams are going to win.
Sean McVay is the coach.
One Super Bowl win.
The Rams won the Super Bowl while based in St Louis and became known as 'The Greatest Show on Turf' due to their high- scoring attacking play.
No-one has been more aggressive in the trade market than the Rams, who are going all-in to win under head coach Sean McVay. The Rams have spent a lot of money to bring in Matthew Stafford, Von Miller, and Odell Beckham Jr.
The Rams hope Stafford can make the difference in big games, but he's known for making errors at the wrong time, having thrown the most pick sixes in the league this season.
The Rams have a tough defence built around three-time Defensive Player of the Year winner Donald, so Stafford targets Cooper Kupp often, even though he won the triple crown by topping the NFL in catches, receiving yards and receiving touchdown. He gives quarterbacks nightmares.
The Green Bay Packers want the trophy back.
Matt LaFleur is the coach.
The Super Bowl has four wins.
A huge team from a tiny town in Wisconsin, known as 'Title Town' from the days when the Packers won nine NFL titles before then winning the first two Super Bowls. The Vince Lombardi trophy is named after the Packers' legendary coach.
Being the only non-profit, fan-owned team in American sport adds to the appeal, but the team now is one of the best around, with head coach Matt LaFleur taking them to the last two NFC Championship games.
Despite being one of the best quarterbacks of all time, Rodgers only made one Super Bowl and is the favourite to win back-to-back MVP awards. This could be his last ride with the team after he fell out with Packers officials.
Rodgers and Adams have more touchdown catches in the last five years than anyone else. Problems in the run game and defence have seen them fall at the final hurdle before, but both areas have improved and hopes are high.
The Deebo show is about the San Francisco 49ers.
Kyle Shanahan is the coach.
The Super Bowl has five wins.
One of the most high-profile teams in the league have won many times in the last 30 years, but have not won a Super Bowl since Jimmy Garoppolo was the quarterback.
Nick Bosa is a key man as he creates constant pressure on opposing quarterbacks with his freakish speed and strength, while Kyle Shanahan runs a unique running game that often bamboozles defences before the ball is even snapped.
The wide receiver has become one of the most effective running backs in the game this season. Samuel has a new position for himself.
His eight rushing touchdown this season were the most by a receiver since 1970 and his 1,770 total yards ranked third in the NFL. He had a play-off-record 72 rushing yards as a receiver against Dallas and he's thrown a touchdown pass this season.
Good things can happen with a large dose of Deebo.
The nearly men are the Buffalo Bills.
Sean McDermott is the coach.
There were no Super Bowl wins.
One of the cruellest runs in sport is the fact that the Bills lost every single one of their four Super Bowl appearances. For the first time since the early 1990s, Buffalo feel they have a team that can do it.
After enduring the longest play-off streak in US sports, they have knocked the New England Patriots off their perch, claimed back-to-back divisional titles and came within a game of a Super Bowl return last season.
They had the best defence in the league this year and in quarterback Josh Allen they have a rare talent with a jet engine for a right arm and a brutal running style that sees him power through the big men on the field.
Allen pitched a perfect game as the Bills scored seven touchdown in seven possessions as they dismantled the Pats. They can go one better this season because Allen had more touchdown throws than incomplete passes.
The Kansas City Chiefs are going for three in a row.
Andy is the coach.
Two Super Bowl wins.
They ended 50 years of hurt with their second Super Bowl victory in 2019, but were destroyed by Tom Brady's Buccaneers in the showpiece game last season. The Chiefs want to make three in a row.
Patrick Mahomes is an artist with a catalogue of under arm, side arm and no-look passes. He's won the Most Valuable Player and the Super Bowl and the Chiefs are one of the teams to beat.
The Chiefs had an identity change this season, going from historically bad to genuinely good during their 9-1 finish. The defence had more turnovers than touchdown passes.
In his last six games, the Chiefs averaged 36.5 points per game, as Mahomes threw 17 touchdown and just two turnovers. If you watch out for Jerick McKinnon after his 142-yard game against Pittsburgh last week, you'll find some great targets.
The team of the future is the Cincinnati Bengals.
The coach is Zac Taylor.
There were no Super Bowl wins.
Last week was the first time in 31 years that a generation of Cincinnati fans had heard of the team. This is an exciting young group of players led by second-year quarterback Joe Burrow, who has been incredible since returning from a serious knee injury.
Ja'Marr Chase was the record-breaking receiver last season, and he was one of the big plays made by Burrow. The 'Joe Cool' nickname is earned by the 25-year-old, who has the confidence of a veteran.
The future is bright in Cincinnati with all four under the age of 26. The question is whether they can go all the way.
They're one of the entertainers in the NFL and can stand toe-to-toe with anyone. Over the next few years, fans of the Cincinnati Bengal will be in for some wild rides.
The TennesseeTitans are the top seeds.
The coach is Mike Vrabel.
There were no Super Bowl wins.
They made their only Super Bowl appearance in 1999, when they became the TennesseeTitans, after moving from Houston in 1997.
Despite finishing as the top seed and having a chance to win the Super Bowl two years ago, nobody seems to give them a chance.
A tough, hard-running team with the benefit of a dominant running back is led by head coach Mike Vrabel. Henry led the league in yards per game with 117.1, despite only playing eight games.
Injuries have hit the team more than most this season, so having Henry back for the play-offs will be huge. They went 6-3 without Henry as D'Onta had similar numbers in the run game.
Ryan Tannehill is the most unheralded quarterback left in the play-offs and he could have a big say in proceedings now that he has top receivers. Tannehill is a threat in the run game.
