I am not the biggest football fan out there, although I am pretty good at fantasy football, I do not really care for the actual teams of the NFL. However I am from the Philadelphia area and I would be lying if the lady at the beer distributor that had to call over her boss to check my ID to make sure it was not a fake was not rocking a "Go Birds" shirt. The amount of people wearing Eagles gear is crazy.
My knowledge from this years Super Bowl is going to be based strictly off of what I think after reading 0 articles and watching 0 serious sports media about it. If anything, my predictions should be about as correct as the analyst on ESPN who get paid millions to spew out less content than me. Now let's get onto what I think will happen.
This game is going to go one of two ways. First off, it could be a replica of the last Eagles and Chiefs Super Bowl just 2 years ago in which the Chiefs won by one score. This is because, well it is because that is the way that the Chiefs play football. Keep it close enough and then prevail when prevailing is needed. Pat Mahomes will not do anything too crazy as his defense will carry him just like they did all year long, but he will somehow play good enough to win Super Bowl MVP.
Score Prediction - 24-20 Chiefs win
The other way this game will go is that the Birds are going to absolutely blow out the Chiefs. I do not think that the Chiefs offense can hold up with the Eagles offense. It is key for the Chiefs defense to be able to hold the mighty and powerful Eagles offense. In order for the Eagles to achieve this, they gotta get the run game going. Saquon Barkley has got to have a day. Jalen Hurts needs to not be a running back playing quarterback too in order for this blowout to happen. If Jalen Squirts shows up instead of Jalen Hurts, then it's going to be a Chiefs victory like the above scenario.
Score Prediction - 37-21 Eagles Win
Now for the fun part, Super Bowl bets. Before the game starts, the coin flip will land on tails because tails never fails. It rhymes so it cannot be wrong. Next up in this epic cannot lose parlay, is going to be another thing that has really nothing to do with the game. The Gatorade color will be purple. No thought behind this, just got a hunch that it will be grape flavored because grape flavor rocks. Next up we got actual things that matter, like how Pat Mahomes will hit the over on his rushing yard total. Like I said earlier, I do not know the line, but it will hit on the over. Another easy one is Saquon hitting the under on his rushing yards. The Chiefs have a crazy defensive line and Saquon will not be putting up the crazy numbers that he did all season. Last but not least, hear me out on this one, Jalen Hurts over on passing yards. He will have to sling the rock in order to have any chance of winning.
Lemme put them here for an easier way to read them
Coin flip - Tails
Gatorade color - Purple
Patrick Mahomes rushing yards total - Over whatever the line is. Do I look like a sports book to you?
Saquan Barkley rushing yard total - Under
Jalen Hurts passing yard total - Over
All in all this Super Bowl will be remembered as a good one, but as of right now, no one wanted to see these 2 teams play again. We would much rather see a Commanders v. Bills match up. Then again the Super Bowl is meant for the 2 best teams in the NFL, and not a feel good story. Please share with a fellow Eagles fan, Chiefs fan, or just a fan of football.
That is todays Tea, with T.
