MAR 26

JAN 26

Analyst predicts the Philadelphia Eagles will win their current playoff game, the NFC Championship, and Super Bowl LX, winning back-to-back championships.

The Philadelphia Eagles failed at the very first hurdle — they lost their Wild Card game to the San Francisco 49ers 23–19, being eliminated in the opening round of the 2026 playoffs. The NFC was ultimately won by the Seattle Seahawks, who defeated the Los Angeles Rams 31–27 in the NFC Championship Game and went on to beat the New England Patriots 29–13 in Super Bowl LX. All three conditions required for this take to be TRUE were unmet.

NOV 24

The author claims the Philadelphia Eagles will win Super Bowl LIX, and asserts this aligns with a prediction they made before the 2024 season began.

The Philadelphia Eagles won Super Bowl LIX on February 9, 2025, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in a dominant performance at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. Jalen Hurts was named MVP with 3 total touchdowns, and the Eagles' defense sacked Mahomes 6 times while forcing 3 turnovers. Skip Bayless's prediction — made on November 25, 2024 — proved fully correct.
