Eagles Fans, Who's Got Your Back This Super Bowl Sunday?
The Eagles' stunning fall from Super Bowl contention has left fans feeling meh. For those who've rooted for the team all along, this year's matchup might be a tough pill to swallow. The defending champions and two-time Super Bowl contenders face off against two teams with longer odds than anyone can remember.
On the other hand, if you're looking to sink your teeth into some underdog magic, the Seahawks are sitting pretty at 4.5-point favorites over their opponents. Philly's infamous underdog spirit lives on through this matchup.
Now, here's a lowdown for those who want to choose a side: New England Patriots fans might want to cheer for the Pats if they're looking to get revenge on former Eagles players who won rings last year. This includes pass rusher Milton Williams and old friends Mack Hollins and Christian Elliss, not to mention Patrick Johnson on the practice squad.
But you might also prefer underdogs – after all, Philly is a city built on overcoming odds. And if you're looking for another Patriots dynasty in the making, their 23-year-old quarterback Drake Maye has a promising future ahead of him. With talent on both sides of the ball and top-notch coaching, winning would propel them toward being favorites again by 2027.
On the other hand, Eagles fans who are still salty about Spygate, Deflategate, or any other Patriots drama might see an opportunity to exact revenge. And if you believe that defense wins championships, the Seahawks' stingy unit should be a major draw.
Lastly, those who believe in second chances – well, this is technically Darnold's fifth chance at proving himself as a Super Bowl quarterback. From being the third overall pick and going 13-25 for the Jets to becoming an MVP candidate with the Seahawks, he's got a story worth cheering about – even if it's not exactly a fairy tale.
So, which team will you be rooting for this Sunday?

So, which team will you be rooting for this Sunday?
their defense is literally unbreakable and i love how darnold's story is like a real-life movie 
plus who doesn't love a good revenge tale? the eagles might be salty about the past but i think this is their chance to show they're more than just that drama 
so yeah, i'm all in on the seahawks this sunday 
I've got exams coming up and I really need to focus on my studies. Can't have my phone buzzing during tests, you know? Plus, it's always so stressful trying to watch a game with all my friends who are die-hard fans... it's like, can we just talk about our math homework instead? 
Anyway, if I had to choose, I'd say root for the underdogs, like the Seahawks. They're kinda like us when we first started a new project and everyone doubted us 
. But on a more positive note, have u seen the Seahawks' defense? They're straight fire 
. Darnold's got a point though, 5th chance and all that... but man I'd love to see him shut down by Philly's O-line 
. The Seahawks' odds are crazy low so fingers crossed! 
I'm tellin' ya, Seahawks all day 
! You gotta love the underdog vibes, man. Those Pats fans think they can just waltz in and take revenge on Philly's squad? 
. Give me the Seahawks' defense any day of the week 
. But seriously, if you're an underdog at heart, the Seahawks are looking fierce 
. Either way, it's gonna be a wild ride this Super Bowl Sunday – might as well buckle up and enjoy the ride 
!
esp since they got dat 23 yr old QB now... dude's gonna do great things. seahawks r lookin good too, but i gotta give it up to underdog spirit tho, thats what makes this game so lit 
. For me, I think it's between Philly and Seattle - both teams have history on their side. If I had to pick, I'd go with Philly. Those guys have been through the ringer before, and if anyone can come out on top this time around, it's them 
. On the other hand, Darnold has definitely got some redemption vibes going on... if he can silence his doubters, that's all the more reason to root for him 
. Super Bowl Sunday is always a wild ride, but I'm hyped either way!
they gotta grow up. i think its awesome that the eagles are underdogs this time though, who doesn't love an underdog story? 
and have u seen darnold's career trajectory? from being benched to mvp candidate? talk about a comeback story! 
! There's somethin' special about seein' those guys who are expected to lose go out there and prove everyone wrong. Like, the Seahawks are a great example of that - they've been through some tough times, but their defense is lookin' fierce right now 
. And I gotta give it up for Darnold, he's like the ultimate comeback kid 
. He's got the heart and the talent to make some magic happen on the field. As for the Eagles... well, they've just been through a tough season 
. But, you know what? I think that's exactly why we need 'em in this matchup - they're gonna give it their all and make it a fun game to watch 
. And then there's Darnold, who's just trying to prove himself again 
.
, but at the same time i think its dope that theres gonna be underdog magic happening this super bowl sunday. those seahawks are lookin pretty sharp and i love their underdog spirit 
The underdog spirit is definitely alive and well in Seattle right now 
. Ultimately, it's all about which team you believe in the most. Who are you rooting for this Sunday? 
I'm not saying the Seahawks don't deserve a shot at revenge or anything, but come on... 
The Eagles fans must be like, super disappointed right now... But, you know what? Philly is all about that underdog spirit 
. I think we should all just root for whoever gives it their best effort, 'kay? 
It's not about winning or losing, it's about the excitement and sportsmanship
