WASHINGTON, D.C.: A recent survey conducted by Remington Research Group found that the majority of Americans (52%) think the Chiefs will win Super Bowl LIV. Just 35% think the 49ers will be the winner, and 13% are not sure who will win. Of those individuals who think the Chiefs will win, 56% believe they will win by more than 7 points. The poll surveyed 1,203 Americans who plan to watch Super Bowl LIV nationwide.

When asked who the better quarterback is, Americans said they believe Patrick Mahomes is the better QB over Jimmy Garoppolo by a 39-point margin. 57% said Mahomes is the better QB, compared to just 18% who said Garoppolo is the better QB. 24% are not sure.

Interest in this year’s Super Bowl is up nearly 80% from last year’s matchup between the New England Patriots and the L.A. Rams, with 87% of Americans indicating they are interested in the Super Bowl this year, compared to just 49% who were interested last year.

“Last year, the matchup between the Patriots (one of the most hated teams in the NFL), and the Rams (a team with a new, smaller fanbase), garnered very little interest from spectators. This year, we have two explosive teams with enthusiastic fan bases, a mix of pass and run-heavy offenses, and a competitive matchup (at least according to bookmakers). All these reasons play into the excitement we are seeing for Super Bowl LIV across the country,” said Director of Polling Lexie Davis.

Other notable key findings:

• Over 1-in-3 Americans (36%) believe the Super Bowl should be held on a Saturday, while nearly 1-in-5 (18%) Americans believe the Monday following the Super Bowl should be made a holiday.
• 2-in-5 Americans believe the refs will make a flawed call that will dramatically affect the game.
• Over 1-in-3 Americans (34%) have or will place a monetary bet on the game.
• 57% of Americans believe the Patriots dynasty is coming to an end.
