The Kansas City Chiefs, led by their star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, are currently preparing for their Super Bowl game against the San Francisco 49ers, which is scheduled to take place this Sunday in Las Vegas. Ahead of the game, former NBA star Charles Barkley has made his prediction for the game. 

During a recent interview on Inside the NFL, former Philadelphia 76ers power forward Charles Barkley revealed that he is betting against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs for the third time in a row.

He had previously picked the Buffalo Bills and the Baltimore Ravens to defeat the Chiefs in the playoffs, but that didn’t happen.

I have bet against Patrick Mahomes two games in a row ... but let me tell you something, I am undaunted, I’m going with the San Francisco 49ers
Charles Barkley said on Inside the NFL show

But, this time, Barkley provides a solid reason for wanting the 49ers to defeat the Chiefs. Barkley, who has never won a ring himself during his 16-year-long career in the NBA, wants to see Niners left tackle Trent Williams win a championship ring. 

I'm rooting for Trent Williams because I'm the guy who is on the list of great players who never won a championship. Trent Williams has probably been one of the best offensive linemen in this league forever. So I really would love to see him get his championship
Charles Barkley said

Barkley spent 16 seasons in the NBA, playing with three different teams. He is one of the best players in the league’s history, but he failed to win the championship during his career. Now, he doesn’t want Williams to suffer the same fate. 

This is probably Williams’ best shot at winning the ring, and the Niners would do everything in their power to stop the Chiefs from winning back-to-back titles.

After Charles Barkley revealed the reason for wanting the 49ers to defeat the Kansas City-based football team in the Super Bowl, he also predicted that the Niners’ X-factor players would stop Patrick Mahomes from leading the Chiefs to their fourth ring in the franchise’s history.

Barkley praised Niners linebacker Fred Warner and said he would step up big time in the Super Bowl game. But Barkley then emphasized that he just wants to see Trent Williams win his first-ever ring.

Well, as Barkley mentioned, the Niners do have some talented players that can stop Mahomes and the Chiefs this Sunday. But one can never be sure about winning while betting against Patrick Mahomes.
