It’ s been said over and over the last two weeks: The Eagles have had the easiest path to the Super Bowl and when you look at their schedule, outside of Aaron Rodgers, Dak Prescott and an early-season Trevor Lawrence, they didn’ t face the most imposing roster of QBs. The Chiefs have Super Bowl experience starting with Andy Reid over Nick Sirianni. What’ s more, if the game.
6:30 p.m., Eagles by 1 ½, 51
HANK’S HONEYS: This would be in our regular season “look but don’t touch” category. Neither team has the clear-cut advantage because while the Eagles are better across the board, the Chiefs have the best QB in the game, particularly when the moment calls for greatness.
If you like intangibles, you’ll probably like the Chiefs. It’s been said over and over the last two weeks: The Eagles have had the easiest path to the Super Bowl and when you look at their schedule, outside of Aaron Rodgers, Dak Prescott and an early-season Trevor Lawrence, they didn’t face the most imposing roster of QBs. The Chiefs have Super Bowl experience starting with Andy Reid over Nick Sirianni. And Reid is money with two weeks to prepare for an opponent. What’s more, if the game comes down to the wire, Patrick Mahomes has been there, done that. Jalen Hurts hasn’t. The Eagles coasted to almost all of their wins.
There is no debate, however, that the Eagles are healthy and the Chiefs are banged up. Mahomes’ high ankle sprain is still a lingering concern while the situation at slot receiver is dire.
