Super Bowl 2023: Date, Schedule and Predicting Teams for NFL Championship Game | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors
Mia Morrison ...the Philadelphia Eagles.
And that's no knock on the San Francisco 49ers, who finished the regular season with the league's No. 1 passing offense and defense.
But this is the postseason, and the first thing everyone will likely be focusing on is the quarterback play.
Brock Purdy has been great, especially considering that he was thrown into the fire as a rookie quarterback and hasn't lost a game since. But Jalen Hurts is the better QB in this game, and it's not even close.
Purdy has been solid as a rock, but Hurts is on his way to finishing third in the MVP voting for good reason. He's not Michael Jordan, but the comparison by his head coach, Nick Sirianni, to the sports icon was absurd and deserved all in one go.
Outside of the composure Hurts has, his leadership and ability to fire up the Eagles' run attack will be crucial against San Francisco after Philly racked up 268 yards on the ground in its lopsided 38-7 win over the New York Giants last weekend.
The 49ers are just as physical, so this will be a ground-and-pound type of game, with the 49ers' Christian McCaffrey likely to also play a huge role.
DraftKings odds have the Eagles coming out on top, and while San Francisco was the favorite coming out of the NFC just a couple of weeks ago, they may have it right this time.
Look for Philly to be the team heading to Glendale.
