The NFL has many great analysts and former players that love to pick each week’s games.
One person who is the most popular is ESPN’s, Chris Berman.
He has a famous “Swami Sez” segment where he picks the winners.
Well, his pick for Super Bowl 57 is in and he is riding with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Berman predicts the Chiefs will win 29-26 and he notes their Super Bowl experience as a factor.
Chris Berman makes his annual Super Bowl pick:
Chiefs 29, Eagles 26

Berman is calling this game the “Roaster in the Toaster” since it is being played in Arizona.
Both teams enter this game with records of 16-3 on the season.
Also, it seems likely that whoever wins the line of scrimmage will win the game.
The Chiefs will have to keep Patrick Mahomes upright and give him time to scan the field.
The last time they failed to protect Mahomes in a Super Bowl they lost 31-9.
On defense, the Chiefs will have to find a way to slow down the Eagles’ rushing attack.
They have the best offensive line in the league and 2-3 rushers who all have a different style.
Slowing down the read option and run/pass option offense will be the toughest task.
Philadelphia has made a killing on those plays this season and will look to do so again on Sunday.
There is no question that this should be a good battle, and Berman has a history of picking the correct side in this game.
Last season, he predicted the Rams would win by three points, and they did exactly that.
Expect this year’s game to come down to one costly mistake or a special team mistake that could help decide the winner.
