Whether you live in Philadelphia and are getting ready to burn cars and riot in the streets, or you live in Kansas City and plan to gather with friends for 29 variations of barbecue, there are Super Bowl bets that will make sense to each of you. The thinking here is that Philadelphia’s offensive and defensive lines are going to be too much for Patrick Mahomes. But if the kid’s ankle is OK, then you never know.<\/p>\n

This much we know: When the Eagles ran the ball two weeks ago against the 49ers, they had a lot of success. So why change something that is not broken?<\/p>\n

With than in mind, we are keeping a particularly close eye on one guy to be the Super Bowl MVP: Eagles running back Miles Sanders. He had 42 of the Eagles 148 rushing yards along with two TDs against the 49ers in the NFC championship, and he will be facing a Chiefs defense that ranked 11th defensively and surrendered 328.2 yards per game.<\/p>\n

Philly had 44 rushing plays and just 25 passing plays two weeks ago against San Francisco, and Sanders scored twice. If he does that again, he is going to be in the MVP conversation, despite the star power of Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts. Sanders had 1,269 rushing yards in the regular season, 5th in the NFL, and averaged 4.9 yards per carry.<\/p>\n
