The Kansas City Chiefs are preparing for another Super Bowl appearance. They are looking to get back-to-back SB victories. 

If they do, linebacker Willie Gay Jr. will need to play a role in the win. He's been coined as a 'big play machine' for KC, and a momentum swing from him could make all the difference against a talented San Francisco 49ers squad. 

According to Gay himself, he's ready for game day. He is thankful and confident that the Chiefs will win a Super Bowl in a second straight season.

The linebacker has dealt with a neck injury this season, but he seems to be as healthy as he has been in quite some time. Gay has totaled 72 tackles, one sack, and one interception for the Chiefs this season. 

Gay emerged as a key contributor on defense in 2022, and fans love the energy and effort he brings to the field during every single game. His athleticism shines, and he has a knack for being in the right place at the right time, especially in the run game. 

For Chiefs fans, they hope that his assurance of another Super Bowl win won't turn out to be a jinx.
