The Philadelphia Eagles are Going to Win the Super Bowl and Here’s Why

D.S. Williamson | MyBookie Sports Wrtier

 

Saquon Barkley is Unstoppable

The former New York Giants running back not only proved what he could do on a championship caliber offense but saved the running back position. A

long with Derrick Henry in Baltimore, 2024 was the year running backs returned to NFL greatness.

Saquon averaged 5.8 yards per carry while rushing for 2,005 yards and scoring 13 TDs.

He’s unstoppable. It’s going to be difficult for Steve Spagnuolo to come up with a game plan to contain Barkley.

 

If You Contain Saquon, Jalen Hurts is the Eagles’ Second RB1

If Spags does create a plan to keep Barkley under control, the Eagles will find a way to get Jalen Hurts open rushing lanes.

Hurts isn’t just a great passing quarterback.

He’s a legit RB1, meaning he’d be the starting running back on every team in the NFL with the exception of Baltimore and Philly if not for his fantastic quarterbacking skills.

 

If You Shut Down Hurts’s Run Game, He’ll Torch You in the Pass Game

Like I mentioned above, Hurts is an RB1 that is also a pinpoint passer.

If Spagnuolo finds a way to keep the Eagles’ rushing attack from controlling the game, Hurts will beat you in the passing game with throws to tight end Dallas Goedert and receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

 

The Philly Defense is Playing Lights Out

  • Vic Fangio took one of 2023’s worst NFL defenses and turned into a beast. Fangio’s D is one of the best in the NFL against the rush, which means the legendary defensive coordinator will find ways top disrupt Patrick Mahomes’ and the Chiefs’ passing attack.
  • The Philadelphia defense is the reason the Eagles finished the regular season going 12-1 straight up in their last 13 games. Philly gets it done on February 9.

The Philadelphia Eagles’ Run Game Will Win the Super Bowl

Henry Watkins | MyBookie Sports Wrtier

 

We are now just a matter of days away from the Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs looking for an unprecedented three-peat.

They will need to get past the Philadelphia Eagles to hit that historic landmark, but will they be able to do it? Before I answer that question, I am going to go through all the things that I look at before I make a pick on any game.

Just because this is the biggest game of the season in the NFL, I simply don’t change the way I look at things, so let’s break it all down before I make my pick.

 

Offensive Comparisons

We all know about Patrick Mahomes and what he has done in his career, but it does have to be said that this was something of a down year for him in terms of stats.

The Chiefs were down in the middle of the pack in passing yards, averaging 222 YPG, while adding 104 YPG on the ground, which was good for 22nd overall.

Jalen Hurts was further down the pack in passing yards, with the Eagles throwing for 189 YPG, but they were very near the top in rush yards, averaging 179 YPG, with Saquon Barkley doing most of the dame.

KC averaged 22.9 PPG, while the Eagles posted 27.2 PPG.

These teams have very different approaches to their offensive play, but the ability of the Eagles to effectively run the football means that they have the chance to control the clock, which, in my opinion, gives them the slight edge here.

 

Defensive Comparisons

There is an old cliché that states defense wins championships, so might this be the most important comparison of the bunch? I’m not so sure it is, as it tends to be teams that are strong from top to bottom that win it all.

In terms of points allowed per game, there is very little to choose between these teams.

The Chiefs surrendered 19.2 PP, while the Eagles surrendered just 17.8 PPG, which was 2nd best in the league.

This is really a coin flip, so let’s call it a tie.

 

Trends and Head-to-Head

At this point, we should discuss the odds for the game, as I get closer to revealing my Super Bowl pick.

The Chiefs are favored 1 ½ to win, with the point total set at 49.

Let’s look at the betting trends for both teams, as well as how things have gone in previous meetings.

KC has a slight edge of 5-4 SU in their last 9 games against the Eagles, with the spread also sitting at 5-4 in favor of the Chiefs.

In terms of the point total, 6 of those 9 meetings went OVER.
KC has won 4 of the last 5 against Philly and are winners of 6 in a row versus teams from the NFC.

That last stat is somewhat wiped out by the Eagles, as they have now won 8 in a row versus teams from the AFC, as well as going 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games playing as the underdog.

 

Super Bowl Prediction

As I mentioned earlier, the biggest edge in this matchup is in the run game, where the Eagles have a huge advantage.

If Barkley is on his game, the Eagles can control the clock, which I think gets them the win and keeps the total UNDER.

Kansas City Chiefs 20 Philadelphia Eagles 24

What is Super Bowl Picks? Let’s Find Out
 

Super Bowl Picks refer to the predictions and selections made by sports bettors, analysts, or experts regarding the outcome of the Super Bowl, the championship game of the NFL. These picks can involve a variety of betting options, from predicting which team will win the game to more specific bets such as the point spread, over/under totals, player performances, and prop bets.

Here’s a breakdown of what Super Bowl Picks typically entail:

  1. Picking the Winner:
    This is the most basic and common type of Super Bowl pick—deciding which team will win the game.
    Bettors analyze team strengths, weaknesses, key matchups, injuries, and past performance to predict which team will come out on top.

  2. Point Spread:
    A pick on the point spread involves selecting whether a team will cover the spread (win by a certain margin or lose by less than a certain margin).
    For example, if the point spread is -3 for a team, they must win by more than 3 points for a bet on that team to win.

  3. Over/Under (Total Points):
    Another common Super Bowl pick is betting on the total number of points scored by both teams combined, known as the over/under.
    If the line is set at 48 points, you can bet on whether the total score will be higher (over) or lower (under) than that.

  4. Player Props:
    These are specific picks involving individual player performances, such as betting on how many yards a quarterback will throw, whether a particular player will score a touchdown, or how many sacks a defense will record.

  5. Other Props & Special Bets:
    The Super Bowl is famous for its wide range of prop bets, which can include everything from betting on the color of the Gatorade dumped on the winning coach to the length of the national anthem.
    These bets add a fun, unique layer to the Super Bowl betting experience.

When people talk about their Super Bowl picks, they’re generally referring to their predictions on one or more of these bets, often based on analysis of the teams, their players, statistics, and trends.

Are you considering placing any specific Super Bowl picks this year? There’s a lot of exciting options!
