NFL fans had much to say after FOX Sports’ Dave Helman shared his way-too-early prediction for the Super Bowl 59 matchup and winner.

Super Bowl 59 will be held inside the New Orleans Saints’ home venue, the Caesars Superdome, on Feb. 9 next year. The Kansas City Chiefs, fresh off a second straight Super Bowl championship, will aim to become the first team to complete the three-peat.

On the latest edition of the “NFL on FOX Podcast”, Helman shared his early predictions for the 2024-25 postseason. Helman predicted that Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ will indeed pull off the three-peat by defeating Jordan Love’s Green Bay Packers in the big dance:

And as you would have expected, Helman’s prediction led to a plethora of interesting responses from fans on X/Twitter:

The Packers were one of the top surprises of the 2023 season, claiming the NFC’s final wild card spot with a 9-8 record in year one of the post-Aaron Rodgers era. After crushing the Dallas Cowboys in the opening round, Green Bay gave the top-seeded San Francisco 49ers a scare but fell 24-21 in the Divisional Round.

With Love asserting himself as the new franchise star QB in Titletown, the Packers should definitely be in the mix for a Super Bowl 59 championship in 2024.

The Super Bowl 59 Field Is Wide Open

The Chiefs are obviously the team to beat entering 2024, but the field is loaded with contenders who have a realistic shot at winning Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans.

In the NFC, the San Francisco 49ers, Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles are all bonafide contenders. If Love builds off a career year, the Packers should also contend for the Lombardi Trophy.

It’s even more hectic in the AFC, where the Chiefs, Cincinnati Bengals, Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, Houston Texans, Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins and New York Jets all have legitimate shots of winning it all.
