Philadelphia Eagles vs Kansas City Chiefs Betting Analysis<\/h2>\n
The Kansas City Chiefs will be in a familiar position as they make their third Super Bowl appearance in the last four seasons when they face the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The 16-3 Chiefs beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in the AFC Championship Game after winning their 7th consecutive AFC West title.<\/p>\n
Former Eagles head coach Andy Reid hasn’t had a losing record in 10 seasons with Kansas City while building a 128-52 record. Andy Reid was the all-time winningest head coach in Eagles history during his tenure from 1999-2012.<\/p>\n
The Eagles also improved to 16-3 on the season after blowing out the San Francisco 49ers 31-7 in the NFC Championship last Sunday. Second year head coach Nick Sirianni is in the midst of his 2nd post-season while leading the Eagles to a combined record of 25-12.<\/p>\n
Philadelphia has made five post-season appearances in the last six years and won Super Bowl LII in February 2018.<\/p>\n
Kansas City won 42-30 in Philadelphia during Week 4 of the 2021-22 campaign behind 5 Patrick Mahomes touchdown passes. Reid isn’t even the biggest storyline in Super Bowl LVII considering the brotherly love angle.<\/p>\n
Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce and Eagles starting center Jason Kelce will become the first pair of brothers to play each other in the Super Bowl. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 PM EST\/3:30 PST from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.<\/p>\n
Truth Hurts<\/h3>\n
The Philadelphia Eagles offense finished the season 3rd in both total points and total yards. Jalen Hurts threw for 3,701 yards and 22 touchdowns with just six interceptions during the regular season.<\/p>\n
The 24 year-old quarterback has proven to be a crucial part of the Eagles success as the team went 16-1 with him under center, but lost both games he missed with a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n
Hurts also did plenty of damage with his legs as he ran for 760 yards and 13 touchdowns. Miles Sanders finished the season 5th in rushing with 1,269 yards and 11 touchdowns.<\/p>\n
AJ Brown was the teams leading receiver in terms of yardage and touchdowns with 88 receptions for 1,496 yards and 11 touchdowns.<\/p>\n
The Eagles defense ranked 8th in points allowed with 20.2 per game and 2nd in yards allowed with 301.5 per game. They did an amazing job defending the pass at #1 with only 179.8 passing yards allowed per game.<\/p>\n
Philadelphia doesn’t have any major injury concerns outside of everyone being banged up at this point in the season. The Eagles finished the season with a 10-9 record both in ATS and O\/U.<\/p>\n
Chief Concerns<\/h3>\n
The Kansas City Chiefs were the #1 offensive attack in total points and total yards during the regular season.<\/p>\n
Patrick Mahomes fell just short of the all-time single season passing yards record with 5,250 yards 41 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. He also ran for 358 yards and four touchdowns.<\/p>\n
Isiah Pacheco paced the team in rushing with 830 yards and five touchdowns. Tight end Travis Kelce had another outstanding season with 110 receptions for 1,338 yards and 12 touchdowns.<\/p>\n
The Chiefs defense ranked 16th in points allowed with 21.7 per game and 11th in yards allowed with 328.2 yards per game. They did do a solid job against the run at 8th with only 107.2 rushing yards allowed per game.<\/p>\n
Mahomes doesn’t currently have an injury designation as he played through the AFC Championship Game against Cincinnati, after suffering a high ankle sprain against Jacksonville in the Divisional Round.<\/p>\n
Wide receiver Mecole Hardman has been placed on injured reserve with a hip injury while wide receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster & Kadarius Toney and linebacker Willie Gay are all questionable but trending towards playing in the big game. The Chiefs have a 7-11-1 ATS record and 8-11 Over\/Under record.<\/p>\n
