Swagu is who perk wants to be lol
@AndOne34 I listened to an episode of that pod. Perk is unlistenable.
Swagu is my guy 🤣💯
Perk is his own man.
Facts
@Drewb187 exactly. Lol
Swagu so good on TV man. Get him his own show please.
Swagu and perk good pod
He really shined during the Pro Bowl.
Swagu did the "bruh" meme IRL 🤣🤣🤣
Drop the thumbnail i missed it 😂😭
It’s amazing to watch 2 legends in Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid get to another Super Bowl. Another impressive accomplishment to add to a long list. Eagles by 10
Im back
👀
Chiefs all the way 30-23😂🤔🤡
I’ll b back
PREACH
Felt like only 2 in the crowd reacted after Swagu's GOAT comment 😂
@Dominique Andre thank you. MJ I see is a man that cries a lot and the worst owner. Maybe he should try playing again. Cigars, gambling and all
@Anthony Francis yea!! your right, you're probably too young to make proper judgmental decision... but yes, for the "little" data you have and what your eyes are recording right now... your right 😁
@MINK who cares. Am judging what I see, and not what you saw in the 60s 🥳
@Devonta Cosby Lol Jordan has more rings, final mvps, league mvps, scoring titles, defensive teams, steal titles, literally Jordans resume is an entire HOF career above Lebron… 😂😂😂…
@Devonta Cosby 😂
Mad Dogg isn't wrong though...I've heard a bunch of players say that they try to make everything as normal as possible...Others talk about halftime and how they try to stay warmed up because it's longer...Also for many players they've never seen anything like the sb so they could be deer in the headlights for a few series...these are all things that have happened
@jamar14eagles at least you are aware enough to admit an advantage
@jamar14eagles well the question was did it factor in lol. Nobody said it was the tell all, but I do think that factors. Having a longer halftime sometimes can be hard to deal with.
@Patrick Gray I don't get how that is a hard point for some people to understand. It isn't a crazy take.
@jamar14eaglesas Bengals fan I understand what your saying but this is not a normal situation with a game players have routines & you know being the Super Bowl you have to deal with issues that aren’t normal.
The Patriots had all the experience in 2017 and what happened? The Chiefs had all the experience in the AFC championship game last year and what happened? Experience is an advantage but it's not as big as y'all are trying to make it
Mad Dog Russo just gave me a massive headache. Let’s go Eagles!! 🦅
Agreed. Don't know where he came from, but he sounds like a bad Joe Pesci impersonator.
Another W for Mad Dogg
As a Chiefs fan, Eagles should be favored but I like our chances! Our defense and health concern me but I think we can get the job done.
@hamhockbeans If Eagles win it might create a rivalry because we have seen Chiefs continously get back and a Eagles win would give Eagles more confidence
Lets have a good game as a Eagles fan. I like my birds chances but I respect your Chiefs.
“This purple for you Bron” is crazy 😂
We saw Hurts beat the Colts by one point...... we also saw Maholmes lose to those same Colts.
These hosts are entertaining, they don't need to be smart all the time. Fun to watch.
If inexperience was such a problem, nobody would ever get ring number one. Do these people realize how many big games Andy choked?!
@Refund HD okay... but that’s not how most fans work there’s no fun of liking more then one team. There’s no excitement for u this weekend cause u like both but the comments I’ve been seeing u seem to favor kc more then eagles Ima die hard fan and I’ll never like another team ever.
@FlyEaglesFly I can be because its been that way for years, its not my fault they meeting in the SB
@Refund HD dude either be a chiefs or eagles fan u can’t be both.
"To learn to succeed you must first learn to fail" - Michael Jordan
Andy beat a Shanahan Niners team that had more overall talent than the Chiefs, they were way better defensively and could run the ball. Historically the experienced team is better off in these games, Belichek vs Mcvay as well
Mad Dog’s argument would have made more sense, if he pushed the point that the Super Bowl is a different game, compared to regular season and playoff games, which puts more pressure to perform. You’re under the bright lights, the biggest game of every players career, a chance to show your greatness, having millions of eyes on you, etc., while two great teams going at it. His argument about the introductions and halftime show is fine, but it’s largely insignificant.
Stephen A trolling Mad Dog on the last part about Dr. Dre Snoop etc.😂😂
I didn’t at first… but Mad Dog is a good addition!! Good for him.
Get him, Steven A. He just can't get over that NY/Philly thing. He picks against Philly every game. We wouldn't have it any other way
Didn’t The Chiefs lose to the Colts forgot to mention that
In Life Theres A Offense There's A Defense Can't Have One Without The Other Respect Will Be Paid
Mad dog was funny in this one..!
The inexperience factor is a non-factor after 10 minutes into the game. It's straight ball then.
7:00 best part about this is they didn’t lose that MNF game for either of those reasons. It was bc they kept turning the ball over 🤣otherwise they win
still lost
“Mad dog you almost made me curse” 🤣🤣😂
@Rageman 94 you were not alone, lol
I kept rewinding it back Lmao
That line had me dying, 😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Russo is right here they say it’s another game no it’s not it isn’t the same. Now who knows about what happens with the halftime & all that but to say it’s no big deal is ridiculous cause NFL players have routines & are like creatures of habit this game their normal routine is all over the place with usual things that don’t happen in a normal game.
My Boy Mad Dog 🤣😂🤣
How about we talk about the significance of Andy Reid facing his former team in the super bowl 🙏🏾💯
More than that. He’s an experienced coach. Bottom line 😊
Eagles have 78 sacks btw and looking to break the sack record in the Super Bowl 🦅
Y’all gotta stop saying age ain’t nothing but a number 😂😂💀💀
Mad Dogg is like a dinosaur debating sports brining him historic stats from over 30 years ago.
What he said was true though
@Onthehop08 nah he’s right and you say it’s a joke cause he called you out
@Z Z it’s a joke relax 😂
If knowledge and experience is treated with such disdain, no wonder the community is so ignorant
Well to be fair he does take it way back but we cant act like the last 10 years erases the previous 100 years of sports. We have become too much prisoners of the moment.
Didn’t the chiefs lose to the colts ?😂
Bruh!!!! And played HORRIBLE
If the Chiefs can shut down the running game I like their chances. We really haven’t seen Hurts play from behind this season. Would he be ready to overcome adversity if they get down early? Or will he be able to lead the Eagles to a game winning drive?
Not even the best defense in football in the 49ers could stop their running game, there’s too many layers and weapons to deal with and guys to key in on. Philly’s OL is just more physical up front it’ll be hard to stop a team that likes to ground and pound because teams don’t have to play the run that often anymore. The reason the Titans always give the Chiefs fits is because of their ability to run the ball and slow the game down. Philly has a much better running game than the Titans along with the best OL in football, I don’t see them slowing them down
Bruh the disrespect to Jalen Hurts if he wins I want to hear him right there with the Allen Burrow Mahomes of the league 😤
There is more pressure on mahomes than hurts
@Mark Ace he's 1-1 right now, so he'll be 1-2 if he loses 🤷
@Mark Ace 5 straight AFC championship games and 1-2 in the SB he also has 2 MVPs where he was clearly the unanimous MVP some guy keeps ruining his unanimous MVP
No, no ones with Mahomes
@Mark Ace no he don’t the eagles are the better team he not even suppose to hear let media tell it when he lost Tyreek
I'm going with the Philadelphia Eagles to take it home Fly Eagles Fly.
Laugh if you want, but the atmosphere surrounding the game matters.
@jamar14eagles - I'm gonna say it mattered - especially to that inexperienced coach. 🤫
@Vincente’ - I rest my case. 😏
If it’s college football. I agree🤷♂️
@jamar14eagles - A. I said "matters" not guaranteed B. It did this year. That's why the Bengals will be watching the Superbowl this year. 🤣
It didn't matter to the Bangles when they beat KC in the AFC championship last year did it?
To be fair the lights went out at XLVII and the 9'ers almost came back.... haha
The halftime show has more hype than this game 😂
He was running 4 his life. He was down 3 starters on the O line. any QB WOULD BE RUNNING THEIR LIVES
The crowd knows that GOAT comment was incorrect 🤣🤣🤣
I was cussing when I heard mad dog saying all that bs when it had nothing to do about the game 😂
Don’t even follow NFL, I’m just here for Mad Dog 😂
Swagu speaking from inexperience of playing in the Super Bowl as if him playing the game allows him the ability to discount experience though has says otherwise lol. But he does it so good tho!
Chiefs should be able to run the ball well with Pacheco, give him at least 30 carries in this game to keep the Eagles pass rushers off balance and be consistent with the run. Eagles defense give up 4.8 yards per carry to running backs. And let Mahomes make timely throws. Eagles are great with leads. If Chiefs can make this game close all the way into the 4th quarter then they have a chance to win it. Don’t let the Eagles have a two or more scores lead in the second or third quarter otherwise the game is over.
Yea exactly, also chiefs cannot let up ANY sacks on first or second downs. This eagles teams just put together arguably the best season in getting to the qb without blitzing on 1st and second down, which is why so many teams punt vs them. If birds can force 2-3 punts it will be a long game for chiefs defense, who we can all agree won't be able to limit eagles offense very much. game could be a very entertaining shootout
No lie that’s a fact swagu. I said the same thing any human kno if Patrick mahomes on the other side of the ball. Then there should be a match.💯💯
If Stephen A actually watched the commanders game he would have seen costly turnovers (not by hurts) and some questionable officiating. Hurts did everything he could to win that game, if Watkins doesn't fumble or they call the facemask on Goedert that game more than likely ends differently. Everyone brings up that game but they didn't even watch it
@Vincente’ tf are asking me that for like my team wasn't in it....ask skip who was in the super bowl
@Switchup Well if this was the Saints vs Rams all over a AGANE. Then I’m coming to your side.
@Vincente’ not entirely blaming the refs, I'd be content just seeing them get the ball back with a chance to win or tie. If they had lost while having that chance then I've got no complaints, just hate to see the end of the game ruined in that way
@Marcus Again who went to the super bowl 😎
I agree. But don’t completely blame the refs. Where I’m from. Sometimes you gotta beat both the refs and the team. By the way, who played in the super bowl. I’m asking because the Eagles gotten the last laugh 🤷♂️
Chiefs will be down to start the 2nd half but idk after that 😂
This is hilarious🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
When it come to players i dont think it matters that much, but coaching is very important, look at how Sean McVay looked cluless against Belichick in super bowl 53, compared to him in last year Super Bowl !!!
Jared Goff played scared, Stafford was airing it out
SAS and Molly clearly have something going on, you can’t help but notice it
Can't help but not notice it
Don't sleep on Hurts. Saban pushed him to 2nd to elevate Tua and then had to depend on Hurts to win the SEC championship. Hurts took the demotion, stayed ready and responded to the call when Tua collapsed. Anybody that underestimates Hurts will be disappointed.
99% of the coaching is done during the week. The other 1% is for play calls during the game. Mad dog knows zilch.
who knew that if the DT get to the QB is would be over...thats some grade A sport insight
Its funny how Swagu says this, but as a patriots fan, ive heard players multiple time say its not the same kind of game. first take be funny
@Vince W k
@Jasen Minus I don’t even know wth you’re talking about now. What you said made absolutely no sense
@Vince W WHAT PART ABOUT NEW PLAYERS DONT U GET. If you can say there are new faces, then there are new faces. Period. And all of those players also had to have their first time.
@Jasen Minus like who? The patriots had the same players back year after year. Patrick Chung, Devin McCourtey, Donte Hightower, Vince Wilfork, TB, Gronk, their OL, Rob Ninkovich, Bill, Mike McDaniels. The had a few new pieces each time but they practically brought back the same team with their core nucleus every year
@Jamx_12 I dont think you understood. Patriots always had NEW players there as well, and the COACH always talked about how that game is different.
Stephen A saying Jalen Hurts barely winning against the Colts but not mentioning the Chiefs LOST??!!??
The 07 patriots were a better 53 man roster than the 07 Giants but as soon as the 07 Giants were able to pressure Tom Brady that 53 man roster in the 07 patriots lost so chiefs versus eagles should be an interesting matchup of two teams trying to stop each other.
Feels like a 24 17 kinda game 🐘🐽🐯
@star fire bing bong
@star fire i like your thinking
58-20 eagles
Feels like a shootout, i see both teams protecting their QBs. These are the top olines
@Senpai Cam eagles will have more than 10 at half time
This segment was "I don't care about the facts! I want the Eagles to win so nothing matters!" 😂😂 you'll be a fool to think it doesn't matters
This game comes down to who's gonna be more physical team than the other point blank period and I believe it's the Eagles who more the physical team if the eagles can establish their run game it's gonna be a long Superbowl game
Amazing you understand. I said it all day. Its not about the star players highlights its the lines. If the Chiefs cannot shut down the Eagles run game. Mahomes will not see the ball much. Your 49ers ran the ball and have a great defense like my birds. The formula of a playoff team.
Mad dog funny af 😂😂😂😂
This is a real toss up. Lots of advantages for both teams just gonna have to wait and see.
There's something to what mad dog is saying. Think about when they turned off the lights in the super bowl. He might know the fix is in.
That NFC championship game is not a good indication… not saying Philly doesn’t deserve to be where they’re at but they didn’t get tested in that game when you have one team that can only run the ball
The eagles are ready for any team they are just built different especially in the trenches
Bill Parcels is the Godfather 🗝️
Why Swagu keep masssaging on Mad dog like he prepping him to take him out back lmaooooo
Inexperience will have a kicker watching the halftime show.... He may be a bit over the top, but Mad Dog has a point.
basically mad dog saying Rihanna going to cost the eagles the super bowls this year lmao 🤣🤣🤣😅🤣😅 im dead
@Aisha Sow Rihanna would be a huge distraction for the eagles lmao
Sounds like it 🤣🤣
this will be a good super bowl but the X factor in this game will be the chiefs defense if they can play good defense and slow this Philly offense down they have the chance of winning if not its going to be a shootout and Philly will win this game...real talk
Both teams elite olines, it's a shootout like 2017
Love how SAS said "Jalen beat the Colts by only 1 point"....Yet failed to mention the Chiefs ACTUALLY losing to the colts. (Sigh.............)
Let's just have a good game
Swagu has no idea about the term inexperience and it’s definition
To Madd Dogs credit, when the stage is to big for Siriani and Hurts. Please play this clip
At the end of the day it’s still just a game. Once the festivities stop pregame and the game starts and the teams settle in all that “inexperience” goes out the window. The Bucs were inexperienced in the SB outside TB and Gronk when they played the Chiefs and beat them so experience isn’t that big of a factor
Experience matters. Every Superbowl people say it doesn't matter. It's more than just the game. We've seen too many Superbowls that say otherwise.
The Patriots had all the experience in the world against Philly in 2017 and what happened?
Eagles win on D and WR, Chiefs win at QB abd TE. The RBs collectively suck but leaning Chiefs at the position
I mean I get what mad dog is saying when Sean Mcvay went up against Bill Belichick in the Super Bowl is playing calling was different and he was inexperienced
Eagles are gonna run the table on KC idk why people are sleeping
@FlyEaglesFly I'm celebrating for whoever wins but i find myself having to protect the Chiefs more than the Eagles because Eagles aren't being doubted much right now
@Refund HD eagles are a better team then the chiefs but it don’t matter to u lol since u like both somehow😂😂 lil fishy to me a real football fan rides or dies for one team
@Refund HD they’re not going to lose tho
@FlyEaglesFly No im just unbiased if Eagles lose you will delete your comment like many other Eagles fan would
@Refund HD it’s clear u like the chiefs more then the eagles as a eagles fan we don’t want you.
boy was mad dogg right 😈
Been a long time since I've watched anything from ESPN. This show really fell from grace.
That’s a lie lol
It is about experience because they have the better roster. So if they lose y’all will most definitely say it’s inexperience
So are they gonna pretend that Bill Belichick didn't loose to 1st time SB coach Doug Pederson ??????
@Marcus true
Or tom coughlin
Better suit Jacket today Stephen A 👌
Wasn’t he wearing a jacket the other day that looked like cracked black glass? I thought something was wrong with the screen
They literally have Doug Peterson and bill b up there.and they still talking abt this smh
How can you trust jalen more than mahomes. And this isn’t a diss at jalen, but he’s also hurt and he flinched a few times against san fran, mahomes elevated
@Refund HD doesn’t matter they haven’t played a legit pass rush. They struggled against the Bills pass rush when they played Von Miller. The Eagles are deep in thr D-line and got guys across the board who can get after the QB. Also the Eagles have the best OL when it comes to run blocking which is their bread and butter. They can run the ball, eat up clock, and keep Mahomes on the sideline with limited possessions
@Refund HD watch what happens, it's an opinion. We'll see Sunday
@solidghost Chiefs olines #1 in pass block win rate
@solidghost Mahomes dropped 44 on that same defense
Mahomes didn't play the best defense in the league. Mahomes is also hurt . Watch the eagles demolish KC Oline
This eagles franchise has been to 4 superbowls the last 28 years. 2 in the last 5 years. Eagles will be ready Eagles beat the colts, Mahomes lost to the colts. Jalen wasn’t the reason we lost to the redskins. And Stephen a get it right. The eagles have 78 total sacks not 70 Andy Reid is like 1-4 in the in the SUPERBOWL
Chiefs had no kicker vs the Colts and Jones got a bs penalty
That Eagles D Line didn get 1 sack⛽
People continually looking for reasons why eagles will lose will be one of the reasons they will win u can't measure or count motivation & desire .
I know Stephen A did mention the Colts...did they win that game because the Chiefs did not.
SAS talking about Eagles only beat IND by 1 point....didn't KC lose against IND because of Mahomes throwing a game sealing INT? Come on SAS...smh
Doggy got it right haha best coach and quarterback
Sooo we going to keep forgetting half of kc oline was out against Tampa.
Mad dog you on point again. Is WILT Chamberlain #1. Experience does matter and mahomy remember what the Goat 🐐 TB12 did to him last time. That's what the eagles are going to try and replicate without the cheetah on the otherside. So defense goes to eagles 🤔. Offense that goes to eagles aswell WHY cause the eagles defense. But that's where the experience comes rushing into the game and that goes to KC. So that's 66 percent for eagles to win 33 for chiefs 🤔 😳 👀. My pick is Philly. But if KC can run the ball that 66percent for eagles shrinks considerably. In the case the 66 drops to 50 percent .so if KC can keep Philly Offense on the sideline with the run game and control the clock. If they don't score to fast and TDs not field goals the chiefs will win this game. You have to keep Philly to 17 points or less in the first half or your in trouble. I got Philly in a romp if they score 20 or more in first half otherwise it will be a close great game.
U can get cold off that long halftime show 😂 lol come out flat it’s tru
Swagu definitely never played in a sb
This was a complete waste of time. He didn’t say the eagles are going to lose because of an extended halftime show. He was simply pointing out how this game is different than other games in many ways and experience can play a factor in determining the outcome. Is that really so crazy? Swagu acting like an over emotional woman in this clip.
Mad dog funny lol
Eagles will win by 17. The defense and their run game will dominate
Like to see an OT game
Wrong Swagu the only position Philly don’t have over KC is the QB position, Mahomes is way better than hurts.
True but Jalen doesn’t need to have a monster game for their offense to be efficient and score. Mahomes needs to have a monster game in order for their offense to be efficient
Eagles are losing 100% if espn is choosing the eagles like this it means they know chiefs winning by 20
Who hasn't struggled this season at some point???????like foh man
tbh 49er vs eagles match. no one could predict that the 49er would lose all their qb in one game haha.
I'm picking the chief Super Bowl experience does work
