Yet the truth holds that this is how it should be, for these have proved to be the best two teams in the National Football League, based off a body of work that stretches back to Week 1.
The Eagles and Chiefs have had their tribulations, no question about it. They didn’t always look infallible. Other teams went on phenomenal tears, especially the pair that lost in the respective championship games.
It is these two though, the first dual No. 1 seeds to duke out a Super Bowl since Philly reserved a special treat for New England five years back.
