After forecasting four straight years of correct Super Bowl picks, the world waited with bated breath as Schrager delivered his 2023-24 prediction on the show this week. Here that was:
“Ladies and gentlemen, the 49ers will be the No. 1 seed in the NFC this season,” he began his address. “They’ll get their revenge from a year ago and they will beat the Eagles in a hard-hitting NF Championship game.”
Schrager then declared that “the Cincinnati Bengals will be the No. 1 seed in the AFC.” However, they won’t be the ones representing the conference in the Super Bowl.
“But like the Bengals did to the Chiefs in Arrowhead two years back, Kansas City will come into Cincinnati and break the Bengals’ hearts in their building this year in the AFC championship.”
Schrager then provided a final score, winner and another under-the-radar player who will turn the tide in this theoretical matchup.
“So it will be 49ers vs. Chiefs in Vegas. The winner, with the exact score being 34-28, and with second-year cornerback Trent McDuffie returning a pick six late in the fourth quarter, the Kansas City Chiefs will yet again be your Super Bowl champion. Folks, I will see you at the parade.”
