NEW ORLEANS — How do you pick against Patrick Mahomes in the biggest game of the year?
You don’t.
That’s the simple way to make a pick for Super Bowl LIX. When the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles take the field, the Eagles will present a better roster and a physical style. However, the Eagles don’t have Mahomes.
He is known for clutch performances and has led the Chiefs to remarkable comebacks this season. In nine playoff games where the Chiefs were behind in the fourth quarter, Mahomes has led six victories, maintaining a perfect record in Super Bowl comebacks.
The Eagles counter with their own superstar running back, Saquon Barkley, who has excelled in his first season with the team. The strategy of the Chiefs’ defense, led by coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, will be crucial in managing the Eagles’ offense and stopping Barkley.
The matchup will put pressure on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, who must elevate his performance to ensure a victory.
Ultimately, it’s expected that Mahomes will guide the Chiefs to a historic victory, completing their quest for a three-peat. The score prediction is Chiefs 30, Eagles 27.
