The Eagles won in convincing fashion in the NFC championship game against their division rival, Washington Commanders, to advance to the Super Bowl. This is their second Super Bowl appearance in the past three seasons, with their other appearance also coming against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Eagles are slight underdogs in this game, however I believe that on paper they have the more talented team. We will see on Super Bowl Sunday if the Eagles are able to avenge their loss from 2 years ago and knock off the back-to-back defending champs. Here are 5 bold predictions for the Eagles in this game.
Saquon Barkley is held under rush 100 yards but does have 25 receiving yards
