They aren't going to stop our run-game. As long as the offense plays clean we should put up plenty of points. I think the defense just needs to play like how they played against Jayden. Blitz less and get to Mahomes with 4 and don't rush past Mahomes allowing him to scramble. The Eagles mostly limited Jayden from scrambling and running for back-breaking 1st downs. The Lions didn't have the personnel to slow down Jayden. The Eagles did. And they have the personnel to slow down Mahomes.

I like our chances. Especially with the run-game that no team has an answer for.

I would love to do what Tampa did, but keep in mind, Mahomes was missing both starting tackles that game. That makes a huge difference. 

2013 LOB vs Peyton?

Dif sport but 2014 San Antonio Spurs revenge vs the Heat?

12 days 

Would of preferred reins in the choice of words. Jalen is crazy otherwise....🤪

 

Would love another long TD run from Barkley to set it all up

I’ll have to go with the first one since I don’t follow basketball lol. I would love that type of performance. 

If Barkley doesn’t slide vs GB, he has 1 TD that game. He did get 2 vs the Rams. He had 3 vs Washington. Let’s keep the trend going and get him 4 rushing TDs in the Super Bowl.

Along with enough scrimmage yards to go over 3,000 total.

Oh yeah! Man I bet there’s a small part of him that had missed he’d go down at the 5 or even 10.

If we win, especially if he gets MVP and/or goes over 3,000 yards, this will be all Giants fans as he's saying "I'm Going to Disney World!"

 

So Saquon Barkley is our Kawhi Leonard?

The best news we can have for this game is that Jalen's leg looked healthy "and" he's riding the momentum from his best game since the Steelers game. We cannot win with Jalen either hurt or holding on to the ball too long. Our playbook needs to be primarily short and quick passes for the 1st half of the game and "then" open up the playbook deeper downfield in the 2nd half. If Jalen plays fairly close to how he played this past week we have a GREAT shot at getting that 2nd ring. Go Birds!!!

We have a very low chance to win this SB. I would have much preferred the Bills.

Oh well. At least the Iggles had a good season.

See ya next September!!

Am I the only one thinking that we are going to absolutely abuse KC? I think we win by no less than 12 points.  

I wish. Hurts is gonna have to channel sb57 2022 hurts and the defense will have to get some stops. I'm still worried about elliott even though we're in a dome. 

At least its on turf this time.

Jalen can channel NFCCG 2024 (last week) and win, alongside the dominant run game and defense.

Nah 2022..he needs to be more decisive and faster with his reads than he was on sunday. If you see a receiver with a step on his man let it go. If you don't see something you like throw it away instead of running around and taking a sack.

While this defense is better than the '22 team that 7min opening drive coupled with Ertz production is worrisome against a better overall team in KC

One scheme matchup I don’t like thier short passing game vs our defense. The Fangio defense prevents the big play, we’ve got a dline that can get to the passer with 4, stop the run with just 6-7 in the box, but we’re susceptible to short, repeated passes. We swarm, we tackle and we generate turnovers by knocking the ball loose. If teams are efficient and protect the football and have the patience to take the 4-5 yard passes all the way down the field we’ve given up several 10+ play drives to the red zone. Reid loves the short passing game and Mahomes can execute it. We have to get a couple punch outs and force FG’s.

As much as you guys might not want to believe it the game is going to be in the 30’s. Last week Washington killed themselves with turnovers. Without them the game would have been closer. The Chiefs don’t get many but they haven’t been giving many. Barkley is awesome and will get his regardless. It will come down to Hurts and his ability to handle the pressure he will see. If he handles it well you will win, if not you won’t.

Not only am I completely able to believe it, I pointed out why I think it will be a high scoring game. Forcing FGs instead of TDs and getting a couple takeaways may be the difference in who wins.

The chiefs hadn’t scored over 30 points all season until last week, but it’s kinda like our passing game. They haven’t needed to.

One thing that has been true since the 1930's through today is this: If you can run the ball at will, you win almost every time. If you cannot stop the run, you lose almost every time. 

The Eagles have a dominant run game. They also have an effective passing attack to work off of that run game. I think the Eagles can wear out the Chiefs' defense by the middle to the end of the 3rd quarter. Yeah, I feel real good about this matchup. I'll just say it...

The Eagles are going to win.
