Super Bowl 2023: Five bold predictions for Chiefs vs. Eagles, including an unlikely first TD scorer

Here are five bold predictions for Super Bowl LVII

It's finally here. The Super Bowl LVII battle between the NFL's top playoff seeds and conference champions -- the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles -- will happen at State Farm Stadium in just a few days. Patrick Mahomes, fresh off his second NFL MVP award win, will be looking to snap a nine-game losing streak by league MVPs who play in the big game, while the Eagles are looking to become the second team in NFL history to win two Super Bowls in a six-year span with a different quarterback and head coach.  Receptions 127 2nd* Receiving yards 1,467 2nd* Receiving TD 15 T-2nd* 100+ yard games 7 2nd*

These are two teams that were constructed differently. The Chiefs, on one hand, have a number of their key contributors back from their Super Bowl LIV Championship team in 2019 with Mahomes, First-Team All-Pros Travis Kelce and Chris Jones, defensive end Frank Clark, and others. On the flip side, the Eagles only have seven players on their 53-man roster from their Super Bowl LII title team from the 2017 season: three offensive linemen, two defensive linemen and two special teams players. These teams boast both All-Pro quarterbacks, Mahomes and Jalen Hurts, as well as each conference's highest scoring offense in terms of points per game. Below, we will make five bold predictions about the big game between these two high-flying squads.
