We were favored against them 2 years ago and we've made significant improvements since then while the Chiefs haven't (and might've regressed even.) I get that the Chiefs are the darlings for squares, but the line is backwards, we should be favored.

I think we are the more talented team.

But you’re fighting the best QB of this generation, arguably the greatest coach of all time, and the refs.

Like I said I like the eagles ML with a hedge, but they should be favored.

It's a bummer that our 3rd straight SB opponent was a favorite had a close win (Chiefs over Bengals, Pats over Jags) where the underdog had real shots to win and blew it. 

To ensure responsiveness going forward, I'll be opening a Super Bowl blog on Tuesday.

Rematch time. Eagles 34 - Chiefs 24

Sure thing Dad. You're free to ignore my post.   Have to win by 14 to win by 3. 

Nah, I’m good, think I’ll stick around to call out your stupid toxic posts.

Meh.  I could see a "pick em” line or 1 either way.  2 points means they would be favored by more at home and it would be basically a "pick ‘em” at the Linc.

 

Whatever, I’m not worried about it. 

I'm not buying the refs bit anymore.  There's too much attention drawn to it lately.

We got a favorable game ourselves today.

I doubt it.

That phantom PI call against Bradberry has been talked about, memed and ridiculed for two years.  They don’t want to be known for that type of stuff. 

I mean they did it literally all season long for them, what's one more game? As long as people watch goodell doesn't care. Until there's a massive drop in viewership they won't change anything

super bowl logo predicted it correctly again.

If you believe the conspiracy, the bottom color is the one who wins I'm pretty sure. So we would win this one

I know no one wants to talk the draft right now, but those TE runs we were using with Goedert were really nice.

If that’s going to be in our playbook, then the kid from PSU Tyler Warren might actually be worth taking in the first. He’d be absolute dynamite in a system like our that added this wrinkle as a regular play.

How about we just use, Goedert!!! 

We ran for 229 today and no one will again talk about it like they should. 

The offensive line in two weeks will dominate once again to a SB win. And finally get their respect as one of the best lines to ever play. 

 

Hurts plays in two weeks like he did today, we win.

That brotherly shove drive wast the sporting epitome of being out alpha'd by someone. The team just disrespected the Commies

I could see the NFL making a major push to end the Push after that debacle.   I have no idea how they will codify a rule to outlaw it... but its the NFL.  They will find a way if they really want to.

No one is going to go against the chiefs, literally any team in these entire playoffs would have been the underdog against them.

A 1 seed going for a 3-peat is going to be favored and it’s absurd to suggest otherwise.

Why?  He played terribly today.  Had a couple "Allen” moments…but was wildly inaccurate and wreckless with the football.

Not because he played great or anything. I just felt bad because he looked like he was dying inside on the sidelines and he seems like a pretty good dude. 

Not sure what was a tougher matchup. You can argue Chiefs because they have a tougher defense and Spags and they're well coached and obviously Mahomes. But man that Bills offense was ridiculous this season and indoors in a dome it would be tough to stop them from scoring even with the Eagles defense as good as it is. And Josh Allen is incredibly hard to sack and bring down. And also there's something about the mystique of Buffalo getting back to the SB after choking so many times and having all of America rooting for them.

Tough call, debated it all game. But the one thing I couldn't debate is while winning is immensely satisfying no matter what, beating the Chiefs would just be way more so.

 

This 2 week rest is gonna do wonders for some of these players. Especially on the offensive side. Icing on the cake if we get BG back for even 10 snaps. Mahomes was off today and they still won. He times  his runs impeccably, especially in 4th quarter. They lull you in and take over then. Better have a lead to take their off the charts intangibles out of the equation. Defense is really tough and clutch. They just have the knack. Can't play your B game. Gotta play like today.
