Philadelphia Eagles
VS
Kansas City Chiefs
Both teams should score in the 20s in this game, though I doubt the total will exceed the current level of 50.5.
To get things started, we’ll take over 41.5 alternate points.
Jalen Hurts – Anytime TD scorer
Hurts has 15 touchdowns on the ground this season, including playoffs, and has at least one in seven of his last nine games.
Given that he hasn’t wowed throwing the ball since returning from a sprained shoulder in Week 18, it’s likely that the Eagles will want to play it safe once they get close to the endzone, which means Hurts using his legs to run or sneak it across the goal line.
Jalen Hurts rushing yards – over 49.5
Hurts has only rushed for 34 and 39 yards in two playoff games this season, but both were easy wins that were basically over by halftime.
Expect the quarterback to run frequently and with urgency in this one, breaking his previous best of 49.5 yards.
