Super Bowl 2020 is officially underway, with the college and professional teams about to meet at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Of course the most interesting game of the season has yet to be played, as fans will get to see how the NFL in Las Vegas conducts business in just a few weeks.
The preseason game will decide who gets to make up the difference for the second-ranked team, which is the Denver Broncos, and they will definitely have to be prepared for the fate of the game if they lose to the New England Patriots in the final seconds of the game. If the loser of Super Bowl 2020 ends up being the fourth-ranked team, they would play in a five-way tiebreaker among the New York Giants, Oakland Raiders, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Seattle Seahawks.
A win in the preseason game will guarantee the winner of the game, so it will be a major factor when it comes to the tiebreakers. Another factor is the percentage of the team that made the playoffs at the end of the regular season. If the Super Bowl was held before the Super Bowl is now, then the advantage is with the second-ranked team.
With the parity that exists in the NFL, this means that there are even more ways for two teams to come out on top of the Super Bowl. There are three teams that each team in the playoffs had an advantage over, and that can vary from team to team. For example, the third-ranked team may have more home games than any other team, while the second-ranked team has the advantage at their place.
The Super Bowl is extremely exciting for fans to watch, but it also is a large event for the league. The fans love to visit each stadium when the game is in progress, and some will leave the stadiums in order to watch the game while sitting on the street. If the Super Bowl was held before the Super Bowl is now, then the audience may stay in their seats for a longer time to see what happens.
It may also be an interesting scene if people are forced to stay in their cars or offices during the Super Bowl because there will be too many people trying to get into the stadium. Some of the people that choose to park at a hotel near the stadium will definitely have a problem, so they might have to wait for the gates to open up for the game.
Hopefully, if it ends up being a tie between the third-ranked team and the second-ranked team, then the second-ranked team will have the advantage because of the playoff standings. This is one of the reasons why the Super Bowl was held in Denver at first, because this is where the Broncos went all the way to the Super Bowl, and with the momentum that they have going into the next season, they may be able to do it again.
