What do Joel Embiid, DeMar DeRozan and Russell Westbrook have to do with Super Bowl LII? Well, nothing you'd think, unless some of those athletes from other sports are fans of the New England Patriots or Philadelphia Eagles and therefore hold a vested interest in the outcome. But you'd be wrong. Thanks to Bovada's Super Bowl cross-sport wagers, you can play all of them in a Super Bowl bet.

New England bucked a recent Super Bowl trend when they defeated the Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl LI, becoming the first betting favorite to win the big game since the Green Bay Packers downed the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XLV, and just the second favorite to win the big game in a decade. The moneyline favorite is a mediocre 7-7 in the last 14 Super Bowls.

Beyond the straight up determination and point spread wagering on who will win Super Bowl LII between the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles, there's also over/under or total wagering available, clearly the toughest of the three wagers to call. 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.

Sports history hasn't been kind to Philadelphia, but then again, Philadelphia sports fans aren't known for their kindness, either. Don't forget, this is the town that booed Santa Claus. 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.

Not so long ago, Nick Foles had a great job. As back-up QB of the Philadelphia Eagles, he held a clipboard on the sideline, watching NFL MVP candidate Carson Wentz work under center and lead the Eagles toward the NFC East title. 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.

If you were to complete an oral history of the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl, it would be about as long as one of those compositions you read in front of the class in elementary school. And it would be just as awkward, with little of value or substance to offer, finally coming to a very unhappy ending. Will the Eagles be able to change the narrative in Super Bowl LII?

The similarities between the Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles are stark. Both are led by smothering, stifling defenses. Both have quarterbacks at the helm who weren't the guy under center when the NFL season started. When the regular season got underway, neither team was touted as a playoff contender, let alone to end up as opponents in the NFC championship Game. And neither team has won the Super Bowl.
