NFL analyst outlines major concern for Chiefs while facing Eagles in Super Bowl - "Going to be very very difficult"

The Philadelphia Eagles are the final obstacle in the Kansas City Chiefs' way this season. Kansas is one game away from completing a historic three-peat, the first time a team will have won three straight Super Bowl rings in the NFL.

What's a real problem for the Chiefs is how they're going to beat the Eagles, who are a great team of their own. Two seasons ago, the two met in the Super Bowl, and Kansas City prevailed.

However, NFL analyst Bomani Jones has highlighted a key difference between those two games:

"Saquon Barkley, I keep saying this and I'm gonna say it again. There's a whole generation of kids that don't know the joy of watching a great running back be a great running back."

With Barkley 30 yards away from the most yards ever for a running back in a single season, Jones knows that Kansas City will have to stop him. He believes the key to winning the game is making Philadelphia score through the air and not through the ground:

"What's going to be very, very difficult for the Chiefs is just going to be the Eagles can move you around. Your game has got to be - how do we make their quarterback beat us? No matter how much you like Jalen Hurts, the weakest position group is quarterback, and I don't think their quarterback is a weakness. I just don't think it's a strength."

Jalen Hurts will play in the second Super Bowl of his career. The previous occasion was a 38-35 loss against the Chiefs. Patrick Mahomes, on the other hand, will play his fifth championship game in six years. He won three, losing only to Tom Brady in the 2020 season.
