The top seed from both the AFC and NFC have advanced to the Super Bowl, creating this Chiefs vs Eagles matchup. The Eagles are a slight -1.5 point favorite in the matchup, as the oddsmakers expect a close and competitive game.

Why Bet The Kelce Over
✅ Kelce is called upon often when the team needs him most. His volume is always phenomenal, but gets a bit of an extra spike in tighter spots. In the last four games the Chiefs have played that were decided by just one score, Kelce has averaged 10.8 targets per game. That figure jumps to 12.5 in the team’s two playoff games. Kelce gets peppered in these spots and will once again. He is also quite efficient with his rapport with Mahomes.
✅ Kelce has quickly developed a knack for playoff production. Over the last three seasons, Kelce has played in eight playoff games. Despite seeing double digit targets in just five of those games, he has recorded seven or more catches in seven of eight games. He has also scored a touchdown in all but one of those games and recorded 95 or more receiving yards in all but one. The over on the receptions prop is the strongest one, but over on his receiving yards and as a touchdown scorer are highly in play as well.

Kansas City Chiefs
There was concern entering the season the loss of Tyreek Hill would make the Chiefs offense less effective. While the wide receiver position has had its fair share of shakiness, the overall offense remains wildly effective with Patrick Mahomes. Travis Kelce remains as the go to in dire situations, and we will see if that connection will be the difference in this Super Bowl.
Philadelphia Eagles
The Eagles rebounded nicely from a shaky end to the regular season. It was a bit of a concern as to how they would perform in the playoffs with their shakiness down the stretch. The playoff bye week seemed to be all that was needed however, as the Eagles have been dominant in the playoffs, outscoring their two opponents 69-14. We will get to see if that dominance will continue against a much tougher matchup in the Chiefs.
