Steem-NFL Playoff Challenge: Super Bowl LII
The final weekend of the 2017 NFL season has arrived! It's time for Super bowl LII...and the last showdown for our season contestants!
The teams are set and ready for "the big game." The new England Patriots will be squaring off with the Philadelphia Eagles in Minneapolis tomorrow. The Patriots will be seeking their sixth Super Bowl victory in their eighth appearance in the game since 2001. The Eagles will be trying to win the game for the first time in their franchise's history. In their previous appearance in the Super Bowl, they lost to Tom Brady and the New England Patriots at the end of the 2004 season.
The Playoff Challenge for our Steem contestants saw a lead change after conference championship week. The previous front-runner, @jonsnow1983, was jumped by @bigpchef, who climbed to the top position from fifth place and now holds a 29-point lead over second place.
The leader comes into the Super Bowl with a Patriots-heavy lineup and a 4x multiplier for five of the eight positions. If the Patriots have a great game, victory could belong to @bigpchef!
But @jonsnow1983 isn't far behind, and if the Eagles happen to stifle the Patriots like they did against the Vikings, and then put up some impressive numbers on offense - which they are more than capable of doing - a 2x bonus for the Eagles players in his lineup could be the nail in @bigpchef's coffin!
There are several different scenarios that could play out during this game that could shuffle a lot of contestants around. With Brady's and Foles' ability to spread the ball around, any number of offensive players could have big games, so choosing the right running backs and receivers isn't as easy as it may look. Whatever happens, it should be a great game and an exciting finish to our football season here on the Steem blockchain!

"@jonsnow was jumped by @bigpchef... " lulz!!!
GO EAGLES!
Eagles? Gross. Why?
y u hate toms?
It's so easy to hate the GOAT. Philly is a shit hole though, I wouldn't mind if it ends in a tie. Cut the trophy in half
Seriously Beth, Go Eagles? I'm gonna puke.
Bethalea is literally the worst!
Emitt Smith is picking your Eagles to win. Stating the Eagles have a better defense to stuff Brady and a better all around team. Maybe he will be right and you can celebrate. Giant fan here and can always save we beat Brady for one Giant Super Bowl loss. My money would be on Pats this year if I was in this pool.
you are very lucky man
