Inside the Battle: Which Unexpected Matchup Could Make or Break the Chiefs vs. Eagles Super Bowl Showdown?
Barkley's Projected Stats: 20.9 rushes, 95.4 yards, 0.5 rushing TDs
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce vs. Eagles LB Zach Baun
Patrick Mahomes has a cadre of different receivers to throw to, but he still relies heavily on Kelce. The trusty veteran tight end out-targeted every other Chiefs pass catcher by at least 35 this season and finished with 38 more receptions than rookie receiver Xavier Worthy.
Kelce didn’t see much action in the AFC championship game, likely because of the Bills’ decision to keep him in check than Mahomes looking elsewhere. The Chiefs still found success through the air, but Mahomes looked toward Worthy way more often and still finished with 245 passing yards.
