Nick Bosa reveals surprising decision while discussing Jalen Hurts vs Patrick Mahomes Super Bowl battle

Nick Bosa is still hurting over losing in the NFC Championship Game once again.

The San Francisco 49ers star has dealt with a ton of success at the NFL level, but he’s also had his fair-share of heartbreak. Evidently, the latest in that long line stings too much, as the former Ohio State star won’t be watching the Super Bowl along with the rest of us.

Even though it’ll be an exhilarating matchup between Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes, Bosa is opting to do other things with his time.

“That’ll be a good battle — that I won’t be watching,” emphasized Bosa, via Matt Barrows of The Athletic.

Can you blame Bosa? All watching the Super Bowl would do is remind him about how close the 49ers were to making it once again. The wounds are still fresh, and he doesn’t want to rub any salt into them.

Perhaps next season the 49ers will return to the biggest game of them all. Until then, Nick Bosa doesn’t have a care in the world.

Jalen Hurts on leading Eagles to Super Bowl: ‘I’m not gonna make this about me. This is a special city’

After coming into the postseason as the No. 1 seed in the NFC, the Philadelphia Eagles have officially capitalized on their 16-3 season by punching their ticket to Super Bowl LVII on Sunday. A big part of the franchise’s run this year has been the star development of QB Jalen Hurts in his second season as their QB1.

However, when speaking with Terry Bradshaw during the trophy presentation after their 31-7 victory over San Francisco in Lincoln Financial Field, Hurts was nothing but humble about the accomplishment by himself, his teammates, and the city of Philadelphia. He said the Eagles overcame a lot but, in the end, they now have one opportunity left to accomplish their goals and become world champions.

“It’s been a lot. I’m not gonna make this about me. This city? This is a special city. They deserve everything that’s going on,” said Hurts. “This is a special city. (But) we got one more. We got one more.”

Hurts finished 15/25 through the air for 121 yards. While he didn’t throw for a score, he did rush in a touchdown while also accumulating 39 yards with his legs. Pair that with another top-notch performance from the Eagle’s defense and it was all more than enough to get Philly over the line against a 49er team that was dealing with more than its fair share of adversity.

Hurts, the Eagles, and the city of Philadelphia will have plenty to cheer about tonight and in the coming days. Still, he is right in that they have one last hurdle to overcome as they await to see who their opponent out of the AFC will be come the Super Bowl in Glendale.
