TAMPA — The Kansas City Chiefs have the star power in Super Bowl LV, but it's the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who have the better overall roster.
That's the conclusion that can be made after I ranked the 44 starters for the Chiefs and Bucs as they ready to meet in Sunday's Super Bowl.
The Chiefs have four of the top five players in the game, with the only player to break through for the Bucs being quarterback Tom Brady, who is third on my list. The rest of the top five has Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes at the top, with tight end Travis Kelce (second), defensive tackle Chris Jones (fourth) and receiver Tyreek Hill (fifth) rounding it out.
After that, it turns a bit.
Tampa Bay does have five total players in the in the top 10, but they also have 13 of the top 20 overall players in the game. The Chiefs also have 10 of the bottom 15 players in the game.
Super Bowl LV is almost here, and you can watch it for free on the CBS Sports App.
The 44 players ranked are based on who I expect to play this week, depending on injuries. That could change, but, for now, it's the guys I think will be available.
So what do the rankings mean? If it's a show for the stars, which sometimes these games can be, the Chiefs will win it. But if it's a grind-it-out, depth-matters game, look for the Bucs to potentially pull off the upset.
I tend to go with stars, which is why I am picking the Chiefs. But a look at my rankings does give me pause for just a bit.
