Straight up, favorites are 35-16 in Super Bowls, and 28-19-2 against the spread. But the over/under is almost a perfect split, going 26-24-1.

It's the place where the wife of Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Norm Barnes was booed during a charity fashion show. And Donovan McNabb, the previous quarterback to lead the Eagles to the Super Bowl, was booed on draft day.

That comfort zone came to a crashing halt in Week 14 when Wentz suffered a season-ending torn ACL, leaving Foles to carry the Eagles to Super Bowl LII.
