Who said SwimSwam does not know ball? The SwimSwam staff is split with six staff members picking the Chiefs to win and five picking the Eagles to win.
Overall, the SwimSwam staff picked it to be a high scoring game with almost half of the predictions expecting both teams to score 30+ points. Based on the Fanduel odds, the spread has the Chiefs at -1.5 while the total points sits at O/U 48.5.
Braden
Score: Eagles 35 – Chiefs 34
An early injury will change the tide of the game, pickleball will be the second-most aired sport of the evening (in the commercials), and the Eagles win on a tush push as time expires.
Anya
Score: Chiefs 34 – Eagles 31
Rooting for the Lionsā¦I mean the Eagles here but Mahomes and crew always know how to get it done on the final drive of the game. Also, Lamar got robbed of MVP.
Nicole
Score: Chiefs 31 – Eagles 27
Tayvoodo. Whatās 13 backwards? 31.Ā
Yanyan
Score: Chiefs 38 – Eagles 31
The Kansas City dark magic will somehow find a way again.Ā
Laura

Iām here for a halftime, not a long time.Ā
Mark
Whatās that? Ah – Super Bowl? Donāt talk about Super Bowl? You kidding me? Super Bowl? Itās Week 1 of Swim conference season. But also Go Birds.Ā
James
Score: Chiefs 31 – Eagles 27
Close game but a couple turnovers in the fourth cost the Eagles late. Also, our endzones are bigger than your endzones.
Retta
Score: Eagles 21, Chiefs 17
Just get me to next season already.
Madeline
Score: Chiefs 28, Eagles 27
āTaylor Swiftā
RobertĀ
Score: Eagles 44, Chiefs 31
As a Philadelphia fan of a certain age, Iām used to having my sporting hopes and dreams crushed, but this team is just too fun to watch when everythingās clicking, so Iām going to try out this optimism thing. (However, in a proactive safety measure, I have removed all D batteries from my house).
Calvin
Score: Eagles 28, Chiefs 24
I dislike the Chiefs, though they will probably win I hope they donāt. Eagles win on a game winning drive after a third down pass interference call moves them into the red zone. Patrick Mahomes makes a comment about the penalty after the game. Saquon Barkley wins MVP. Usually a seahawks fan but today itās fly eagles fly.
Will
Score: Eagles 35, Chiefs 31
Donāt have a dog in the fight, so Iāll go for the outcome that enables people to scream along to Dreams and NightmaresĀ
Coleman
Score: Chiefs 24 – Eagles 23
Chiefs have Mahomes, Taylor Swift, and the Refs. It’s a time-tested formula.
Eagles go up early, but they give One-Five the final possession (idiots) and he secures the 3-peat. As a Missouri native, we deserve this. We need this. Let us have one cool thing.Ā

Was there any doubt. Go birds. š¦
Robert is clearly the winner here. I hope he put his money where his mouth was. If so, he may be a rich dude this morning!
I see you Mark:
Iām rooting for the meteor
Everyone’s a winner as long as you have fun.
Wrong. WINNERS WIN, losers do not, everyone is NOT A WINNER. A rather simple concept if you know much about words, definitions, or basic cognition.

Laura for the win!
