Former NFL MVP Shaun Alexander knows what it’s like to play in the Super Bowl and he admits it’s tough to pick the winner of this Sunday’s matchup.
The Chiefs and 49ers are set to kickoff in Super Bowl 58 just a few days from now. But Alexander believes one side has a player that he just can’t ignore in big spots like these.
“Number 15 is still the quarterback for the Chiefs, and their defense is way underrated,” Alexander admitted Wednesday. Saying that he’s leaning towards Kansas City going back-to-back despite the formidable challenge the Niners represent.

Alexander helped carry the Seattle Seahawks to Super Bowl XL when he rushed for a historic 1,880 yards and 27 touchdowns back in 2005.
The Seahawks came up just short in that game, however, losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers 21-10.
The all-decade running back envisions a different result for the Chiefs though and sees them left holding the Lombardi once its all said and done.
