Looking at the best prop bets for Super Bowl 57 between the Eagles and Chiefs
is an interesting prop because we’re looking at the team that finished the regular season with an NFL-best 41 passing touchdowns versus the team that led the NFL with 32 rushing touchdowns . Despite those numbers, could a field goal be more likely?Article content
Last season the Rams opened Super Bowl 56 with a passing touchdown, breaking a streak of four straight Super Bowls that featured a field goal as the opening scoring play. The last time Kansas City played in the big game in 2021, Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker opened the scoring with a 49-yard field goal. The first scoring play of Super Bowl 54 between KC and the San Francisco 49ers in 2020 was also a field goal, this time against the Chiefs.
In Philly’s Super Bowl 52 victory over New England in 2018, Eagles kicker Jake Elliott put the opening points on the board with a 25-yard field goal. The smart play on Sunday is a field goal to open the scoring.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Mahomes was the only 5,000-yard passer during the regular season, finishing with 5,250 passing yards in 17 games.
Hurts finished the regular season with a career-high 3,701 passing yards in 15 games. He added another 275 passing yards in two playoff games, which likely would have been a higher figure if Philadelphia hadn’t elected to run the ball and kill the clock in their NFC Championship blowout win against the 49ers. The factor to consider with Hurts is his run game.
Mahomes is looking for his second Super Bowl MVP after winning the award at Super Bowl 54. The big concern is obviously the ankle injury Mahomes has been dealing with since the Divisional Round against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was clearly limited in the AFC Championship game against Cincinnati, but still managed 326 passing yards and two touchdowns against a top Bengals defensive unit. Add another two weeks of healing and you have a serious MVP threat in Mahomes.
