Despite coming into this matchup as the underdog, the Philadelphia Eagles should be the favorites in this game, for one reason — Saquon Barkley. It’s been one heck of a season for the all-pro running back. After parting ways with the New York Giants and landing with the Philadelphia Eagles many were not sure what to expect. But after a slow start to the season, Barkley has had a historic year, becoming just the 9th player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 or more yards in a season. Barkley only upped his effort in the postseason capped off with a three-touchdown performance against the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game. Barkley’s historic pace won’t bode well for Kansas City’s run defense, which is allowing 148 rushing yards per game in the playoffs.

The oddsmakers believe that this game will be competitive. The Kansas City Chiefs come in as the favorites in this matchup by a 1.5-point margin over the Eagles. Oddsmakers also believe that this matchup will be a low-scoring affair, with the over/under marked at 49.5 points.

So whether you are rooting for a clear favorite or hoping for a miracle by the underdog, the most important thing to remember is that you must be in it to win it.
