The Philadelphia Eagles are seeking revenge, the Kansas City Chiefs look to make history; who will prevail?

The NFC Champion Philadelphia Eagles are headed to New Orleans after a decisive 55-23 victory over the Washington Commanders. While the Kansas City Chiefs are still waiting to exhale after a nail biter in Arrowhead stadium, as they narrowly escape the Bills 32-29.

In a much anticipated Super Bowl LVII rematch, the Chiefs look to win their third straight Super Bowl, something that has never been done in the Super Bowl Era. While Jalen Hurts and most of the Eagles still have a bitter taste in their mouths from 2023, they look avenge their loss and stop the Chiefs three-peat.

Opening up the NFC Championship game with a 60-yard touchdown run on the Eagles’ first play from scrimmage, Barkley is still in shock at the Cinderella season he is having.

“I say it all the time, it [NFC championship] doesn’t feel real,” Barkley said.

“We knew that’s what it was gonna take. It was gonna take a team effort,” Barkley said after the game “I want to give a shoutout to Will Shipley. He came in and finished it strong. We talk about the running back room, about making plays. Our guy Kenn[eth Gainwell] went down, Will stepped up big for us, but the team came out, man. Everyone came out and made big plays and got the job done and that’s how you get to a Super Bowl.”

Saquon Barkley, and rookie Cooper DeJean, will also be sharing a birthday on the biggest day in the NFL; with Barkley being born in 1997, is six years DeJean’s elder, born in 2003.
