00:00But if we do look at the hypotheticals and first starting with the Eagles making it to the Super Bowl, one and a half and one and a half, both of those plus money, whether it's the Bills or the Chiefs.
00:12So let's go there.
00:13Bills, Eagles, Chiefs, Eagles.
00:15Do you agree with the hypotheticals that in both of those scenarios, the Eagles will be the underdogs in the Super Bowl?
00:23Well, and I think, yes, because the Chiefs or the Bills will have the best quarterback on the field, and that matters.
00:30And no disrespect to Jalen Hurts, but Jalen Hurts is not in that same breath as Josh Allen and Mahomes.
00:40So I do agree that the AFC, whoever it's going to be, is likely going to be the favorite simply because of those two guys.
00:48Right.
00:49I mean, if Josh Allen wins the MVP this year, which, you know, he probably will.
00:54You got Mahomes already, you know, and not taking anything away from Jalen Hurts.
01:00But let's be realistic here.
01:03It's just not in that same category just yet.
01:06And I do think the commanders will be interesting because I think that number might even be a little lower.
01:11I think if it's the Chiefs commanders or even Bills commanders, that thing will get much closer to five and a half, six.
01:18Then it will three and a half or four.
01:21Yeah, it'll be interesting to see, too, because, you know, the Eagles and the Chiefs had played before.
01:26But so many times where when you enter into a championship spot like I'm an Eagles fan in 2017, it's like, boy, for us to win our first Super Bowl, we actually got to beat Tom Brady, New England Patriots.
01:36I mean, like, my goodness here.
01:37So having said that, like the Eagles have won, but the Eagles lining up against the Chiefs, you got to be saying we were just here with a double digit lead.
01:43And it's Patrick Mahomes and it's Andy Reid.
01:45And they beat us like they know how to win championships.
01:48They're going for the third straight.
01:49They know how to do it.
01:50Whereas the Buffalo Bills get there.
01:52And I'm not knocking the Bills.
01:54But if the Bills win, which they did this past weekend in a Titanic matchup against the Ravens, then vanquish their playoff enemies in Kansas City.
02:03I'm not saying, but I'm saying like, hey, we finally got back to the promised land at this point.
02:07And my goodness, it's been a long time.
02:09It's been, what, 30, 40 years since the early 90s since we actually got in to the Super Bowl that they're happy with that.
02:15But if I'm an Eagles fan, I'm actually leaning towards hopefully playing the Buffalo Bills, even though, Joe, I actually think the Bills are a more talented team overall with a more explosive quarterback.
02:24And that's crazy talking about Patrick Mahomes.
02:26But we understand so many years of watching.
02:29They just win Kansas City.
02:31They're not going to fracture if they're down 14 to 3 in the first quarter.
02:35They're not going to be like, oh, my goodness, the lights are too bright at this point.
02:38So for me, and also from an intrigue standpoint, I would love the Bills to get there.
02:42Because, Joe, we've been around the block multiple times here.
02:44We just got through the Patriots' dynasty.
02:47It was like, we're just doing content.
02:48We got to talk about Tom Brady and the Patriots again and Bill Belichick, my goodness.
02:52Every year we talk about Kansas City.
02:54So I think it will be refreshing if the Bills got there, a new fan base in there, a new hit type of talking points.
03:00Josh Allen is fun to root for.
03:02That would be interesting.
03:03But let's flip it over to the opposite side and talk if the Commanders make the Super Bowl.
03:07Interesting enough, if the Eagles are in there, it's plus 1 1⁄2 and it's plus 1 1⁄2 depending on who they're playing.
03:13The Commanders, same thing, plus 4 1⁄2 and plus 4 1⁄2.
03:17Bills' Commanders, Chiefs' Commanders.
03:19Me, as I said again, being a big time Eagles fan, it would break my heart.
03:23But I got to tell you, it would be intriguing if a rookie quarterback of the Commanders is in the Super Bowl.
03:32Yeah, well, think about it, right?
03:34So Jaden Daniels versus Patrick Mahomes, you know, the old school, new school, the same old, same old.
03:40Or, you know, the rookie and, you know, building a new dynasty there in Washington.
03:46It is fascinating, whoever it is that's going to advance.
03:50But I also agree that the AFC should be the favorite because either way, you're talking about two of the top three or four quarterbacks in the league.
04:01They are always going to be looked at in a favorable light, certainly in the market.
04:07And experience matters there, too, because if Mahomes ends up making it, whether it's the Eagles or whether it's Washington,
04:15they're always going to have the market support there.
04:19And in likelihood, that number would rise as well.
04:23So I think the Eagles, a lot is going to depend on how the Eagles look against this Commanders and Jaden Daniels team.
04:31And that line might move differently, no matter who it is that they're playing, depending on how they look this week.
