Philadelphia Eagles NFL Betting Online
Although the Philadelphia Eagles held the ball for more than 35 minutes and outgained the Kansas City Chiefs, they fell to Patrick Mahomes and former head coach Andy Reid in Super Bowl LVII. Philadelphia was a short favorite by the NFL betting odds, and it looked like the Eagles were indeed the right choice when they took a 10-point lead into halftime. However, Mahomes was brutally efficient in the second half and led the Chiefs to 24 points on their four drives. He was named Super Bowl MVP for the second time in his career, even though Mahomes didn’t throw for more than 200 yards.
Philadelphia will look at this game as one that got away for some time. Kansas City only scored once on offense in the first half, as the Chiefs’ second touchdown was the result of a Jalen Hurts fumble that was returned for a touchdown. Additionally, they took an eight-point lead after a short touchdown as a result of a 65-yard punt return, so there’s a good case to be made that Philly would have won this game six times out of ten.
Philadelphia Eagles 2022 Season Recap
We saw the Philadelphia Eagles take advantage of a weak schedule to rush out to an 8-0 start. The Eagles only lost one game in the regular season when Jalen Hurts was healthy and under center, earning this team homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. They hammered both the New York Giants and the San Francisco 49ers on their way to Super Bowl LVII, but the few times they faced elite quarterbacks, they gave up a significant amount of both points and yards.
Jalen Hurts had a fantastic season under center in this offense. Hurts was superb behind one of the best offensive lines in the league, and he became one of the most dangerous quarterbacks in the game running the RPO. He completed 66.5% of his passes for 3,701 yards (8.0 YPA) with 22 touchdowns and six interceptions. Additionally, Hurts ran for 760 yards (4.6 YPC) and 13 touchdowns.
Philly had one of the best ground games in the NFL. Miles Sanders ran for 1,269 yards and 11 touchdowns while averaging 4.9 YPC, and Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott added 457 rushing yards and seven touchdowns.
This offense was so well-rounded that it could have had three 1,000-yard receivers too if Dallas Goedert had managed to stay healthy. A.J. Brown was worth the price the Eagles paid for him, finishing with 88 receptions for 1,496 yards and 11 touchdowns. DeVonta Smith caught 95 passes for 1,196 yards and seven touchdowns, and Goedert had 55 receptions for 702 yards and three touchdowns.
The Eagles were excellent at getting to the passer this season. Philadelphia led the NFL with 70 sacks, and four different players had at least 11 sacks. Haason Reddick led the way with 16 sacks, while Josh Sweat, Brandon Graham, and Javon Hargrave each got to the quarterback 11 times. The secondary was seemingly very good too, but this unit had a real tough time against the top quarterbacks in the league.

Founded in 1933, the Philadelphia Eagles have only four NFL championships in their history, including one Super Bowl title. Since the formation of the Super Bowl for the 1966 season, the Eagles have three appearances.
Of course, the 2017 season will go down as the most historic in Eagles’ history. That year, behind backup quarterback Nick Foles, the Eagles went on an improbable run that ended with a Super Bowl upset win over the New England Patriots.
Until the late 1970s, the Eagles were out more than in. But head coach Dick Vermeil changed that with Ron Jaworski, Harold Carmichael, and a tough Eagles team. The 1980 Eagles won the NFC title but were dominated in a Super Bowl loss against the Oakland Raiders.
Head coach Buddy Ryan led the Eagles to three consecutive playoff seasons from 1988 to 1990 but could never reach the Super Bowl. Those Eagles teams were known for bone-cracking defenses and quarterback Randall Cunningham.
Since 2000 the Eagles have been one of the NFL’s most consistent winners. Philadelphia has missed the NFL Playoffs just eight times. Head coach Andy Reid was the man that began this era of success. Reid led the Eagles to the 2004 NFC title, but Philadelphia lost the Super Bowl to the New England Patriots. Doug Pederson was the head coach who finally got the Eagles their elusive Super Bowl championship in 2017 with a 13-3 campaign.
