In one season, Barkley has transformed from a two-time Pro Bowl running back who wanted to be a “ Giant for life,” to a superstar who is as much a face of the Eagles’ franchise as Jalen Hurts or any other player on the roster.

Move over, Dallas Cowboys. There’s a new and unlikely America’s Team in the NFL — at least for the Super Bowl. The Philadelphia Eagles have become the popular choice among many football fans who want to see the Kansas City Chiefs lose for various reasons.

If he doesn’t score, though, it’ll likely be because the Eagles got too close to the end zone, in which case Jalen Hurts will get his tush pushed (or the Eagles will score on a palpably unfair act? ). So, Hurts’ -105 odds are a good early bet too.
