Two Eagles legends are predicted to rejoin the team with new roles
Two Eagles legends are predicted to rejoin the team with new roles An intriguing list of 100 bold predictions for the 2025 NFL season forecasts Jason Kelce and Brandon Graham's return with new and expanded roles in the organization Often, when Eagles fans, or Philadelphia sports fans in general, are discussed, there's a tendency to lock in on their demanding personalities and, sometimes, zany nature. What gets left out of those discussions is their most important personality trait. No fan base cares about its team more than this one. No fan base loves its squad more. That's why they jeer so loudly and cheer even louder. That's the heart of every Birds fan. So, when Jason Kelce narrated that hype video last season and he advised, "They will love you in this city, if you love it", he wasn't lying. He and Brandon Graham lived that way for their entire careers, and even though both have hung the cleats up, Philadelphia fans in the City of Brotherly Love and all over the nation can rest easy knowing we haven't seen the last of them. A recent collection of bold predictions for the 2025 NFL season suggests they won't be gone for long. Jason Kelce and Brandon Graham are predicted to return to the Eagles with professional roles. What would we do without bold predictions? No, seriously... Who's just sitting around waiting for the season to begin? Conor Orr at Sports Illustrated certainly isn't. He recently cooked up a list of 100 things he's expecting to see this season. Jason Kelce and Brandon Graham return home to the nest, and they do so in a professional capacity. "I am reupping my Kelce prediction from a year ago because it still feels too perfect. The game's ultimate workhorse will seek quiet solace in the rhythms of an NFL season and locker room after a long season of media noise. Graham, who has long been rumored to rejoin his team in some capacity, will also join the fold to help guide the Eagles' young and dangerous defense." It's unlikely that anyone will have an issue with that, as Graham and Kelce have played for Andy Reid, Chip Kelly, Doug Pederson, and Nick Sirianni. They have been around the organization long enough to know many of the ins and outs. It's impossible to find two individuals who care more about the organization. Currently, Jason Kelce works for ESPN and runs a podcast with his brother, Travis Kelce. Graham recently retired, so we'll see what his next move is. You won't find any arguments here with their return. Kudos to Orr. Now, we need to improve his Super Bowl LX prediction. He has the Eagles losing to the Buffalo Bills. That one landed among ESPN's three most likely Super Bowl matchups. February is a long way away, but it's interesting to see what people are thinking.

2026 Super Bowl odds: Which teams are favored to play in Super Bowl LX?
Imagine this: The 2025 NFL season is just a few short months away. The regular season kicks off on Sept. 4, and teams have started their official organized team activities (OTAs). Super Bowl LX is set to take place on Feb. 8, 2026 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, the home of the San Francisco 49ers. Here's a look at the teams most likely to compete in the Super Bowl LX at FanDuel Sportsbook as of May 29. Most likely Super Bowl LX matchups Ravens-Eagles: +1800 (bet $10 to win $190 total) Bills-Eagles: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total) Chiefs-Eagles: +2400 (bet $10 to win $250 total) Bills-Lions: +2500 (bet $10 to win $260 total) Ravens-Lions: +2700 (bet $10 to win $280 total) Chiefs-Lions: +3000 (bet $10 to win $310 total) Bengals-Eagles: +3900 (bet $10 to win $400 total) Bills-Rams: +4000 (bet $10 to win $410 total) It's no surprise to see the reigning Super Bowl champs featured all over the oddsboard. Jalen Hurts and the Eagles pulled off a 40-22 upset over the back-to-back champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, during last year's Super Bowl. And although Philadelphia lost several defensive players during free agency — Milton Williams, Josh Sweat, Darius Slay, Isaiah Rodgers and Oren Burks — it is still favored to win Super Bowl LX at DraftKings Sportsbook (+650). The Ravens and the Bills are also mainstays on the oddsboard. At +1800, sportsbooks see a Ravens-Eagles matchup as most likely for the title game, even though Kansas City has represented the AFC in the Toward the bottom of the board sits Bengals-Eagles at +3900. Joe Burrow is coming off of a tremendous season, leading the league with 4,918 passing yards and 43 passing touchdowns. Burrow became just the third player in NFL history to throw for more than 4,500 yards, 40 passing touchdowns and fewer than 10 interceptions. The Bills and Bengals have yet to secure a Super Bowl win, while the Lions have not even made an appearance in the big game. Buffalo has reached a record-tying four Super Bowls without a win.

Joe Buck Doesn't Hesitate Picking His 2026 Super Bowl Champion
Although it's still only early May, that didn't stop ESPN "Monday Night Football" play-by-play announcer Joe Buck from making his prediction for Super Bowl LX, which will take place at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Buck and his broadcast partner, Hall of Famer Troy Aikman, appeared on "Good Morning America" on Tuesday to discuss the upcoming NFL schedule release, which is set to drop in full on Wednesday. Before the interview wrapped, the duo was asked to share their early picks for who they believe will win the Lombardi Trophy—and neither one hesitated. Advertisement 'I'm gonna say Buffalo finally wins it,' Buck said confidently. Aikman, meanwhile, stayed loyal to his roots. 'Cowboys, come on, come on, yeah, yeah! Come on, Stray!' he exclaimed with a laugh, directing his excitement toward former Giants legend Michael Strahan. The Buffalo Bills have endured their fair share of heartbreaking defeats over the years, including this past season when they fell short in the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs, despite entering the playoffs as the No. 1 seed in the conference. During the early 1990s, led by star quarterback Jim Kelly, Buffalo famously reached four consecutive Super Bowls from 1990 to 1993—only to lose each one in crushing fashion. Advertisement Despite having fielded several strong teams over the years, the Bills have often been plagued by bad luck in the postseason's biggest moments. However, with the reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen under center and the core of their roster largely intact, expectations remain high for another deep playoff run. Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott (left) and quarterback Josh Allen (17).Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images It seems Joe Buck is confident in their chances, backing Buffalo to finally break through and win it all—while Troy Aikman is standing by the Dallas Cowboys, the team he led throughout his entire 12-year Hall of Fame career.
