Our Philadelphia Eagles vs Kansas City Chiefs Prediction
As expected, this game is basically evenly matched. Both teams are among the Super Bowl favorites, and the Eagles are small favorites against the Chiefs, even on the road.
The Eagles are fortunate that Jalen Carter will not miss further time after being ejected in Week 1 before the first snap. Having Carter back on the defense is likely going to play a huge role in slowing down the Chiefs’ offense.
This should be a close game in what is a Super Bowl rematch. That said, we believe the Eagles will prevail, as they have a more potent rushing attack and a defense that was slightly better than the Chiefs' in Week 1. For that reason, our Kansas City Chiefs vs Philadelphia Eagles prediction is: Philadelphia Eagles ML.Philadelphia Eagles vs Kansas City Chiefs - Other Interesting Picks
Saquon Barkley Anytime Touchdown
Our second pick for this game will focus on backing Saquon Barkley to score an anytime touchdown. As mentioned, Barkley scored a touchdown last week. Barkley ended the game with 60 rushing yards on 18 attempts. Of course, the Chiefs did well to defend the run in Week 1, but Barkley has consistently terrorized teams in his career.
He tends to get a ton of carries as well, increasing the chances he will find the end zone in this game against the Chiefs. Further, the Chiefs’ defense showed some holes against the Chargers in Week 1; therefore, backing Saquon Barkley to find the end zone will be our pick.
