The NFL playoffs have officially started, which means it’s time for the top analysts and fans to start talking about what they predicted ahead of time and why they’re right or wrong.
Predicting Super Bowl winners is something a lot of analysts hang their hats on, especially if their prognostication comes true.
As the playoffs go on, fewer and fewer analysts’ predictions will come true, so when their pick looks good, they have to capitalize on the opportunity to show off.
This was the case for Skip Bayless after the Philadelphia Eagles’ win over the Green Bay Packers, reiterating that he believes they are going to win the Super Bowl.
That was a battle. The Packers' defense is very good. But I'm going to say it again: THE PHILADELPHIA EAGLES ARE GOING TO WIN THE SUPER BOWL.

As Bayless mentioned, the Packers had a top defense during the regular season, and while their Wild Card game was a tough matchup, the Eagles found a way to pull out a win.
Their offense has come alive in recent weeks, as the connection between Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley continues to grow as time goes on, firing on all cylinders at the moment.
It will be interesting to see how they handle their opponents moving forward, but things looked great for the Eagles in their first playoff game of the season.
Nick Sirianni is said to be on the coaching hot seat but can keep that seat cool with every passing win in the offseason.
Whether the Eagles walk away with a Lombardi Trophy remains to be seen, but for now, they’re riding the wave and hoping to take down their next opponent.
