Two NFL Teams Not Named the Eagles or Chiefs That Will Play in the Super Bowl This Year

For the majority of the 21st century, it’s been nearly impossible to repeat as Super Bowl champions. The Patriots are the last team to do so, winning Super Bowls XXXVIII and XXXIX over the Panthers and Eagles, respectively. Could the Chiefs break a two-decade drought and defend their title this year?

Not only does Sports Illustrated senior writer Conor Orr think the answer to that question is no, but he also doesn’t see the Eagles getting back to the championship game either.

With the start of the 2023 season now 100 days away, Orr commemorated the occasion with 100 bold predictions for the year. Among them is that we will have two different teams appearing in Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium. He predicts that it will be the Bengals defeating the 49ers for the title in February.
