Experts saying KC defense has to make Hurts beat them passing.

I say....ok, how do you make that happen. I believe every team has tried that to an extent.  What is the missing element is the fact that the Eagles OL and formations kinda dictate things.  You can't just say force the team to pass...you have to execute to stop the run first.

KC great team,however they just don't have the personnel to counter us(as a group) Kelce will win alot of battles,Mahomes will make his usual ridiculous plays,but we only lose if we beat ourselves. I want them on 3rd and longs,they will covert alot of those,but some we will force the out. Their fans are cocky and think we are "imposters". Rude awakening time!!!! And I want to make it as rude as possible LOL. PS it takes alot for my daughter to don an Eagles jersey,so I told her if she didn't I was calling legal Zoom back to change my will 😁

I realize we have fans here from all over the country.  Just to give a local flavor. 

My kids have had Eagles days in school the last two days...today a pep rally,  just saw the video of the fight song in their assembly.    My wife going in work at 10am on Monday.   Philly school district is 2 hours late on Monday. 

I wish you all could be around this experience... it's awesome.

The Phillies run through the playoffs a couple months ago was so much fun too.  Fantastic sports city. 

I read an article it's so bad(good) that when they call your name at the courthouse for jury selection instead of "present" they are saying "GO BIRDS"

Ironic that the SB will be played on Abe Lincolns birthday

NO

Eagles X factor: T.J. Edwards, LB

Edwards, safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, linebacker Kyzir White, safety Marcus Epps and maybe cornerback Avonte Maddox could all qualify. In other words, the defensive collective that could be responsible for marking Travis Kelce in the middle of the field. The Eagles have lockdown corners on the outside, but the Chiefs' biggest threat is Kelce in the middle. Edwards, who was the most frequent nearest defender on tight end targets this season, has allowed just 0.6 yards per coverage snap (well below the 0.9 average for linebackers) and has generated minus-5.4 receptions over expectation against, per NFL Next Gen Stats. -- Walder

No coasting in this one. Even if I was up 28 after 3,I gotta keep working because Mahomes can come back quickly.I see 2 scenarios.Both could play "ball stall" all game keeping the opponent's offense off the field. Either that or it will be a full blown game of dropping bombs and all out anarchy. I'm seeing the latter after conservative starts from both clubs 

Go all in bro and we'll see you in the breadline

True story. Ran 9 pizza delivery shops - Dominos - back in the day when it was decent - haven't had it in decades. Was checking out one of my drivers who was in to Poison and such bands. He asked me if I knew this Paul McCartney guy used to play with a band called the Beatles.

I had hope yrs aamily yrs ago when I ran away from home do things like all black SB wouldn't have to be said. Maybe all babies should be born paisley with a barcode.

Just tired of the color thing - which I never had after living w/ a black family after running away from home. The one brother was like a brother I never had, the sis was a friend, the other brother was positive and helped me get one my feet - he was older - and their own brothers called the other one the N word. Being adopted into a Jewish family, have been baptized outdoors Messianic in a creek when we were supposed to have a tornado but the skies cleared just for those minutes, going on to study different cultures to understand their nutritional needs, not being religious and definitely not believing in any organized religion, I simply don't understand why, It's the SB and there are 2 really good QB's 

Why is cowpie Stacey Dales covering the Eagles all the time?

Right... that was back in the day... imagine these kids today, it's a different world music wise.

Nice!

Yes, I thought it VERY uncalled for to say this was the 1st SB with 2 BLACK QB's. Like WTF. We're all the SAME! Just look different is all. Good and bad in ALL races. Mic drop

Here is my outlook.  My experience isn't one of being African American.  It's not my call as to whether or not it's important to the African American community that this is a first time thing.   I respect it's important to them.

Some day we might get a president of Italian heritage. I'm sure it might be important to some people that I know.   

It is what it is.  Not my call.

I don't give a crap what race or ethnicity someone is. 

Everyone wants equality and something like this is a foundation for equality. They are 2 exciting QB's. Nuff said.

I do get you're coming from though on your point of not being black. 

Very different to know - actually have the ability - how you would feel not having the same experiences.

I agree..for me it's 2 exciting QBs.  Because I'm not African American, that's all that matters...to me.   

I also like that we have a prominent player from my college Temple University playing... probably means nothing to most other people. 

Kyle Pitts being the first player drafted from my high school was a big deal to me..  probably not to most other people.

As I'm sure there are important things for other people on this board that I could give two $÷=ts about.   I'm not going to down play that for them, instead I'll be happy for them.   

This is obviously important to Hurts and Mahomes themselves.  They've earned the right for it to be so. 

My thing...it would be great for Hurts to win the first Superbowl between 2 African American QBs.   I'm rooting for him to have that place in history.

Like Obummer, made a huge deal that he was the first black pres. First off that is wrong, he is only 9% black, Secondly who cares??? Either you can lead or you can't. I have friends of most races and creeds and I also know Azzwads from every race and creed

Ditto. 

My lady friend got me a super sweet item for the SB. My eyes lit up when I saw it. I felt compelled to share as it's unlike anything I've seen before. I sure hope it's not racist

I have this on my mantel LOL They are cool!!

 

Another one. My adopted parents were divorced. I'm living in Harrisburgh, PA, 2nd st.  A black  kid up the block and I used to play together all the time. One day I got new skates, the kind you need a key to screw on, I offered to share and he punched me in the nose. Afterwards I went to his house and his mom told me it's best I don;t come over, The Watts riots were going on and I didn;t understand. Also went down to play some b-ball. This kid that used to sit behind me in school and could turn his eyelids inside out, doused a car in gas, hopped in and lit it on fire. Thing I remember is never a scream.  That;s the needless sh^t . I was suspended in 5th grade for organizing a sit in against Nam. Also for not standing up for the pledge of allegiance against nam.
