We’re almost to Championship Sunday, when it will be decided which two teams will meet in Super Bowl LVII on Feb. 12. It’s the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC title game, and the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers in the NFC. Who you got?
Congratulations if you’re holding a futures ticket that includes one of these four teams. However, it’s not too late to place a Super Bowl wager.
