Chiefs and 49ers Advance from Championship Sunday

Super Bowl LVIII (58) is set as the Chiefs and 49ers Advance from Championship Sunday.  Meanwhile the Ravens and Lions will be left to wonder what could have been during the off season.  Nevertheless, get ready for a big time Super Bowl.

The Chiefs scored twice early and hung on for a 17-10 win over the Ravens in the AFC Championship.  Now, KC will try to become the first team since the 2004 Patriots to repeat as Super Bowl Champions.  Additionally, Travis Kelce (Mr. Swift) made 11 catches for 116 yards  and broke Jerry Rice's record of 151 career receptions in the playoffs. So, he continues to impress his girlfriend.

Meanwhile, the 49ers had to make back to back comebacks vs the Packers and Lions the last two games in order to punch their ticket to the Super Bowl.  Nothing went right for the 49ers in the first half (or everything went right for the Lions).  And San Francisco found themselves in a 17 point deficit at the break.  However, they flipped the script in the second half to lock up a Super Bowl bid against the Chiefs in Las Vegas in two weeks.

So, let's see how well you retained information from yesterday's championship games with some trivia on Craig Shemon and Company on ESPN Southwest Florida. Plus, you will win prizes if you are caller number 9!

The 20 Hottest NFL Players: Ranked

We've done these before, and they tend to do well. So we will give you the 20 hottest NFL players ranked. Baseball might be Americas past time, but football is Americas present and future. We have a saying in sports radio "football is king". Unlike the NBA, there are not a ton of celebrity couples across the National Football League. Asking around the office there were a few names that kept coming up. Travis Kelce, Jimmy Garoppolo, and Saquon Barkley are all names that got thrown around. There are no players from the Florida teams (Buccaneers, Dolphins, Jaguars). So as the calendar shifts to the fall, out attention goes to football. And with it the 20 hottest NFL players ranked. If you're a fan of the sidelines view, we've ranked the NFL Coaches as well.

I got this list from Ranker.com. Their list is quite lengthy. In fact I couldn't get to the bottom of the list. And if you're outside the top 20, you don't deserve to be mentioned. What is nice to see is the variety of positions represented. We've got all of the usual suspects; quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers (the divas of the NFL). But there is a kicker and an offensive lineman in the list. It's not often a position group that is called the "Big Uglies" get put on a list of the hottest players. But it is 2023 and big is beautiful, right? Also, the quality of the player is not taken into account. Nor is how good of a person or team mate they are. It's the 20 hottest NFL players: ranked.

If only his coach had trusted him more, maybe the Lions would be in the Super Bowl. There's always next year.

DK is one physically gifted individual. He is what statues should be modeled after.

Offensive Linemen are known at "Big Uglies". That is certainly not the case for Justin Pugh.

Justin Jefferson had a few big injuries in 2023. But he might have had his biggest year off the field after posting a photo with fellow LSU athlete Olivia Dunne.

Robert Woods, AKA "Bobby Trees". The guys changes teams pretty much every season. But he does it in style.

Had a great season with the Baltimore Ravens. But his dad sure does have a lot of thoughts about who is throwing his son the football...

Life is seemingly gotten better for Claypool. At least professionally it has. Claypool was traded to the Miami Dolphins this season and now lives in one of the best cities for fashion in the world.

Kind of strange for a kid from Wisconsin who plays on the defensive line in Pittsburgh to be on this list. But good for TJ (check out the other Watt brothers JJ and Derek)

Jaire is a heck of player on the field, a looker off the field, and might be playing on a new field next season. The relationship between him and the Packers doesn't seem to be the best right now.

Stefon Diggs has wowed with some of his pre-game outfits in 2023/24. Diggs clearly has an eye of fashion... or at least thinks he does!

If you don't know who Travis Kelce is at this point, then allow me to the first human to welcome you to Earth!  Everything is coming up Aces for Mr. Kelce.

Byard changed teams half way through the 2023 season moving from the Titans to Philadelphia with the Eagles. Seems like a big win for the City of Brotherly Love.

CMC is a great player, but likes to keep a low profile off the field. That's kind of tough since he's dating former Miss Universe Olivia Culpo.

The sexiest kicker is Harrison Butker who is also the kicker for the most successful NFL franchise over the last half decade.

As handsome as Tee Higgins is, he might become more attractive this offseason. Higgins is expected to sign a massive contract as he becomes a free agent.

Things didn't end so hot for the young Eagles QB this season. He's got some work to do to win over the Eagles faithful in 2024.

The Windy City doesn't know who their QB will be in 2024. But they know DJ Moore will be on the outside catching whatever is thrown his way.

If you're sad the Bengals missed the playoffs this year and you didn't get as much Joe Burrow as you're used to, I have good news. He will be back next year. A series of injuries derailed Burrow's season from August.

Barkley will become a free agent this offseason and could be in line to sign the richest deal for a running back in league history.

Easy #1. Although his play on the field did not warrant this spot on the list... just look at him. Until he is no longer in the league, he will hold down the #1 spot.

This list was created before the season. So it doesn't take into account the recent coaching changes around the NFL.
