Neil Reynolds, Sky Sports NFL program leader

“In each of their last 17 games that have gone down to being decided by a score, Chiefs has won all 17. Andy Reid told me this week he expects his team to play all four quarters that he expects, That they come out on the right side of it.

“I think it will be close, I think the chiefs have a historical sense of them, they are just inevitable, as I said at the start of the playoffs, so I think Kansas City wins 27 -24. “

Phoebe Schects, Sky Sports NFL -Analyst

“It’s so hard I really think chiefs will win but I could go both ways. Eagles could win because they have # 1 defense and they find a way but i really think chiefs win it . ”

Kevin O’Connell, Minnesota Vikings Head coach

“When you look at Kansas City, it’s easy to start with their coach and their quarterback. They are two of the best for what they do in the NFL, it’s proven they’ve done it on the biggest scenes with Travis Kelce, And the offensive line too.

“They have won a lot of close games this year, I don’t think, will probably be talked about with spags (Steve Spagnuolo) and his defense, it will be a challenge for Eagles.

“But when you look at Eagles, I don’t know if there is a more talented team in the NFL top to the bottom, the defense with Vic Fangio and the way the offense is rolling with Saquon Barkley who may have had the best season of Any non-quartal in NFL.

“What challenge I think it will be a close game, but with Patrick Mahomes in a close game, we usually know how it ends.”

Jerry Jones, Dallas Cowboys owner

“I’m so anxious when I think about how physical Eagles are. I think about how physical they are, but then I look over there and the offensive line in Kansas City is pretty physical.

“If Philadelphia can get Mahomes here, they’ve done a good thing for NFC East. And it’s me screaming in my pillow because they play and we’re not!”

Mina Kimes, NFL -Analyst at ESPN

“It’s very close, I’ve gone back and forth on this, I think Eagles is a more talented team chiefs have Patrick Mahomes and they’re so well coached.

“As good as the Eagles defense has been this year, probably the best, I think the style of chiefs football and the way they move the football on the field so effectively with these long drives and the ball comes out so quickly I think mahomes will have success and I choose the bosses.

“I’m interested in seeing if these coaches are breaking their trends. It’s a fantastic coaching matchup, arguably the two best defensive play-callers of a generation of football in Steve Spagnuolo and Vic Fangio.

“They have very different styles, spags are more aggressive, Fangio plays zone and light boxes, so I’m interested in changes in trends.”

Malik Jackson, Super Bowl 50 -mester with Denver Broncos

“It’s hard, right? I like Kansas City because they have been there before consistently in the last few years of course and then understand what it means.

“I like chiefs, but it’s hard to go against Philly because of the offensive and defensive line, these guys know what they’re doing. If I were to give a prediction, 28-21 to Philadelphia.”

Malcolm Butler, two-time Super Bowl-Master

“Chiefs have got a pretty good violation, they have some good cornerbacks and there’s depth, I don’t think you should let them play in front. But Eagles have a good running game and a good defense in general. I say defense win championships, I Going Eagles.

Pat Surtain, former Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs Cornerback

“I don’t think these defense has a weakness, at all levels of defense they have huge players, and I think both devices have carried these teams.

“You have obviously got Saquon Barkley, a hell of a player, but the old saying is defense gains championships and I think it will come to it on Sunday.

“With Mahomes it is his tranquility, he is never out of the game if you get the guy the ball last, he gets you to the most important thing is his lead, guys follow him and know when he is on the field they have a chance To win, and that’s a good thing to have.

“Close play, I just want to see a great super bowl.”

Cameron Dicker, Los Angeles Chargers Kicker

“Yes, that’s good for Chiefs Right? They’ve been dominated for so long, but we hope it kind of changes and we take over the reins. I think the Eagles are taking what my friend Moro Ojomo Hopefully gets A sack, it becomes an explosion.

Arik Armstead, Jacksonville Jaguar’s defensive end

“It takes a lot of hard work and sacrifice to get to a Super Bowl, a group of guys who come together to sacrifice each other to get in a game like that, it takes everyone.

“Spags are very underrated for chiefs, he is a big key to why they have the success they do, amazing coach from what I see, and creates a lot of pressure and makes it hard for offenses. Very underrated and the key to their success .

“It’s hard to stop Saquon Barkley, especially with the offense they have. You have to choose your poison because Jalen hurts saquon, you have to mix it up, it’s a bit of a chess match.”

Charlie Smyth, New Orleans Saints Kicker

“I’ve changed my mind all week about it, but I think I’ve settled down on the Philadelphia Eagles just because of Running Sneak Sneak, but how will they do it against Eagles that make it so different?

“Just situations like what I think the Eagles are too big for the Chiefs defense. But it’s Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid at the end of the day, they play so good complementary football, their special team is so underrated. But I just feel like saquon and that the offensive line may just lead them through.

Larry Ogunjobi, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle

“I think it will be spectacular I don’t really know the scoring but i think it will be a great game, especially a new match – it’s hard to beat the same team twice but it has to be exciting.”

Zack Martin, Dallas Cowboys right guard

“I go Kansas City, I can’t go against them, I just think they are doing these plays down the stretch.

“There is a lot of excitement around the Super Bowl, been in a few of them as far as the week of festivities would be surreal to be here as a player, unfortunately I have never been able to, but I would be love to play here.

Brian Thomas Jr., Jacksonville Jaguar’s wide receiver
