Super Bowl setting up to be a clash of the quarterback generations, and that's great for the NFL

This year’s Super Bowl is likely to turn into one of those Progressive Insurance commercials about saving new homeowners from becoming their parents.

If you ever had a MySpace page, you’re the starting quarterback from the NFC. If you don’t know what a landline is, you’re from the AFC.

The big game may turn out to be a clash for the ages. It’s nearly guaranteed to be a clash of the ages, with the NFL’s marked quarterback age-gap nicely split between the conferences that represent each side of the bracket.

In the AFC, it’s a new-school, schoolyard brawl featuring Kansas City (Patrick Mahomes, 25 years old) against Cleveland (Baker Mayfield, 25) while Buffalo (Josh Allen, 24) takes on Baltimore (Lamar Jackson, 24).
