Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes will have hands full with relentless Philadelphia pass rush
Back in the Super Bowl five years after winning the first Lombardi Trophy in franchise history, the Eagles took a different path to reach this one. They’re 1½-point favourites against Kansas City, per FanDuel Sportsbook, after outscoring the Giants and 49ers 69-14 in the playoffs.
During that run, players embraced their underdog status, brought dog masks to the games and wore them around Minnesota for Super Bowl week. No need for any extra motivation this time around.With Jalen Hurts leading a high-powered offence and Haason Reddick headlining a stingy defence, the Eagles have been dominant throughout much of the season.
“They’re one of the top defences in the league for a reason,” Mahomes said. “They get after the quarterback, so it’ll be a great challenge for us to go out there and try to have some success.” “Mahomes is a tremendous talent,” Reddick said. “I don’t know if you can contain him. He’s that good.”
