Superbowl LII - 12 Different Roads to Winning It

Super Bowl XLVIII - Seattle Seahawks v Denver Broncos
12 different teams have their sights set on the Vince Lombardi Trophy

NFC #2: Minnesota Vikings

Cincinnati Bengals v Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings defence has been a juggernaut all year.

The 2017-2018 Minnesota Vikings are only the 17th team in Superbowl history to have the top ranked scoring AND overall defence. They won 11 of their last 12 games, finishing the season 13-3. Their defence has to continue keeping the opposition out of the end zone and on the other end, Quarterback Case Keenum should continue playing with a chip on his shoulders and prove people wrong.

AFC #2: Pittsburgh Steelers

Indianapolis Colts v Pittsburgh Steelers
Wide Receiver Antonio Brown had an MVP caliber season before injury

The Pittsburgh Steelers have received their first bye since 2010. For this storied franchise to win its 7th Superbowl title they need MVP candidate Antonio Brown to come back from injury. The Big 3 of Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Running Back Le'Veon Bell and Wide Receiver Antonio Brown is one of the most potent offensive trios in NFL history. The emergence of Wide Receiver Juju Smith-Schuster adds, even more, bite to this already explosive offense. However, to win, they'll have to outscore teams as the defense has not been able to stop opposing teams from scoring since Linebacker Ryan Shazier went down with an injury.

Superbowl Odds: 9-2

Writer Prediction: AFC Championship Game
