Super Bowl 2027 Matchup: The Most Anticipated Championship Games

Who will meet in Super Bowl LXI? We break down the most compelling potential matchups and what each would mean for NFL history.

The Super Bowl matchup is not decided until Conference Championship Sunday — but that doesn't stop fans, analysts, and bookmakers from dreaming about the most compelling scenarios. Here are the matchups that would generate the most buzz for Super Bowl LXI.

Eagles vs. Chiefs: The Rematch Everyone Wants

A rematch of Super Bowl LIX would be the NFL's dream matchup for 2027. Philadelphia dominated Kansas City in their 2025 meeting, winning 40–22. But the Chiefs don't lose the same way twice. Patrick Mahomes vs. Jalen Hurts, Andy Reid vs. Nick Sirianni, the two best teams of the era — this matchup would be must-watch television and one of the most anticipated Super Bowls in history.

Chiefs vs. Bills: The Rivalry That Defines an Era

Few rivalries in modern football have generated more drama than Kansas City vs. Buffalo. Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes have split their playoff meetings, and each game has been a classic. A Super Bowl between these two franchises would be the pinnacle of one of the great NFL rivalries.

Eagles vs. Cowboys: The Greatest Rivalry in Football

Eagles vs. Cowboys is the most passionate rivalry in the NFL. Both teams consider themselves America's Team, both have championship pedigrees, and their fan bases absolutely despise each other. A Super Bowl between Philadelphia and Dallas would be historic — and polarizing in the best possible way.

49ers vs. Chiefs: The Return of the New Dynasty Clash

San Francisco and Kansas City met in Super Bowl LIV (2020), with the Chiefs winning in dramatic fashion. The 49ers have consistently been NFC contenders since, with the talent to reach another Super Bowl. A rematch of that classic would resonate strongly with fans who remember Mahomes' fourth-quarter comeback.

The Best Super Bowl Matchups in History

Not every Super Bowl matchup is created equal. The classics — Cowboys vs. Steelers in the 1970s, 49ers vs. Bengals in Super Bowl XXIII, Patriots vs. Giants in XLII and XLVI, Chiefs vs. 49ers in LIV — share a common thread: elite quarterbacks, competitive teams, and games that came down to the final possession.
