Chiefs vs Eagles Prediction
The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 1.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles have looked really good in their games this season with their 14-3 record overall which has them at the top of the NFC East with one of the best records in the entire NFL. They played 3 games in the playoffs against the Packers, the Rams, and the Commanders and are now making their way to the Super Bowl for the 2nd time in 3 years. Meanwhile, the Chiefs have looked great in their games this season with their 15-2 record overall which has them right at the top of the AFC West with the best record in the entire NFL. They had a 1st round bye due to being the number 1 seed in the AFC and they have played 2 playoff games against the Texans and the Bills, but now they are making their way back to the Super Bowl with a chance to win their 3rd in a row. This journey started for the Chiefs with a win over the Eagles in the Super Bowl 2 years ago and now it is up to the Eagles to stop the Chiefs from doing what has never been done before, winning 3 Super Bowls in a row. If there is any team that can stop the Chiefs this year, it is the Philadelphia Eagles with the best defense in the entire NFL and an offense that just put up 55 points in the NFC Championship. The Chiefs have looked great all season as they also have a really good defense and they continue to find ways to win games, but even in their win over the Bills, the game went right down to the wire and the Chiefs have played like that all year where they always allow their opponent to hang around until the end of the game. Mahomes has been special in these games throughout the years, but the Eagles do have the best defense that will be able to stop this Chiefs offense that has stalled at times, and this Eagles offense is completely different with Saquon Barkley leading the way. Barkley will be a key part of this game for the Eagles and he will be the difference maker in this game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
“It's just so hard to get to the Super Bowl and I don't take it for granted, and to do it again at Arrowhead Stadium was special. You get that trophy on that stage and you look around here and there's not an empty seat — it's special.” - Patrick Mahomes after their win against the Bills in the AFC Championship.
“I don’t want anybody else leading this team at quarterback other than him. He’s a winner. Again, he deals with so much criticism which just blows my mind because of the questions I have to answer. I don’t look too much into that. The questions I have to answer it’s just like, man, this guy wins. He’s won his entire life.” - Nick Sirianni after his team’s win against the Commanders in the NFC Championship.
