In Super Bowl LVIII, the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the San Francisco 49ers.
The Chiefs will make their fourth appearance in the Super Bowl in five seasons. But while the Chiefs have some really talented players, the 49ers arguably have more talent on their roster all around.
You will want to be in the know when you're talking with friends and family before and during the game. Here are the best five offensive players in this year's Super Bowl.
Rankings Top 5 Offensive Players in the Super Bowl
5. Deebo Samuel, WR, 49ers
Deebo Samuel has been really inconsistent this year. Samuel added only 60 catches for 892 yards with seven receiving touchdowns on the year. The speedy receiver averaged 14.9 yards per catch and also added 37 rushes for 225 yards.
Samuel averaged 6.1 yards per game on the ground and scored another five touchdowns rushing the football.
His versatility makes up for his inconsistency. He's a top-five player on the offensive side of the ball in Super Bowl LVIII.
4. George Kittle, TE, 49ers
George Kittle isn't even the best tight end in this game. But he's still a top-five offensive player in Super Bowl LVIII.
Kittle added 65 catches for 1,020 yards with six touchdowns. He averaged 15.7 yards per catch, which is also really good for a tight end.
Kittle is a bonafide leader and a terrific blocker in the run game. He's vocal and talented. Look out for No. 85 when the 49ers are on offense.

3. Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs
I'm sorry, Swifties. Kelce might be No. 1 in your hearts, but he's only the third-best offensive player in the Super Bowl this year.
Travis Kelce added 93 catches for 984 yards with five touchdowns. While he only averaged 10.6 yards per catch in the regular season, he's been super dominant in the playoffs.
Kelce has caught 23 of 27 passes in the playoffs and has earned more than 70 yards in all three games. Those three games were also in the freezing cold, with two of them on the road.
Kelce shows up when it matters. He'll be an x-factor for the Chiefs in Super Bowl 58.
2. Christian McCaffrey, RB, 49ers
Christian McCaffrey just won the AP Offensive Player of the Year Award for his play this season.
The 49ers running back added 272 carries for 1,459 yards and scored 14 rushing touchdowns, averaging 5.4 yards a carry.
That's already insanely good. However, he also caught 67 passes on 83 targets for 564 yards and another seven touchdowns. McCaffrey added 8.4 yards a catch this season.
In the playoffs, he's continued his insane play, adding four touchdowns in two games against the Packers and Lions.
McCaffrey is the best running back in football. He's just not the best quarterback in football. That's why he's No. 2 on this list.
1. Patrick Mahomes, QB, Chiefs
Patrick Mahomes didn't come close to winning the MVP this season. But a potential Super Bowl MVP is still in play. That's what matters more.
Mahomes hasn't missed the AFC Conference Championship Game since being the Chiefs starting quarterback. He's also only lost three times in his playoff career and has multiple Super Bowl rings.
Mahomes could win his third Super Bowl with the Chiefs, and he's only 28 years old. He's clearly the best quarterback in the NFL. That also makes him the best player in the NFL.
