Are undefeated Bills and Eagles destined to meet in Super Bowl?

Week four of the NFL 2025 season

Although we don’t want to criticize it too soon, I did consider this to be a Super Bowl matchup.

In fact, NFL analyst Phoebe Schecter foresaw the Buffalo Bills’ clash with the Philadelphia Eagles in the title game.

The only teams with a 100% record still in play are Buffalo and the defending champions Philadelphia, who were not on the outside looking in 2025.

Josh Allen, the most valuable player of the last season, leads Buffalo, and while they have been more convincing thus far, Philly have had a tougher schedule.

Before claiming comfortable victories over the New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, and New Orleans Saints, the Bills defeated Baltimore Ravens with a field goal as time expired.

This team has evolved over the past few years, according to Schecter, a former Bills assistant coach. Their quarterback, Josh Allen, is in charge of everything. He is the engine in all.

The Bills’ offensive line is also fantastic, she said. It allows [running back] James Cook to be that guy, but what makes these teams so great is how well they handle the football. Both of them do incredibly well in that regard.

In their final regular-season game at Highmark Stadium, the Bills will face them in a potential Super Bowl dress rehearsal in Week 17. Both teams have given the ball away just once this year, and they will meet in that situation before the Bills move to their new stadium.

With this final appearance at Highmark Stadium, the Bills may think, “let’s just stay healthy and see where this goes,” but there are always those who think, “let’s just stay healthy and see where this goes,” said Schecter.

The Eagles haven’t been at their best on offense or defense, but they do tend to have the fewest turnovers each week and are usually the team that wins the game.

The Eagles play a conservative style of offence because they have won 20 of their previous 21 games and [they have had] 42 takeaways and only nine giveaways, according to Eagles reporter Andrew DiCecco.

The Eagles are finding ways to win, despite the offence not yet meeting expectations. Simply put, their DNA is strong. You have to wonder, “How sustainable is that? Because they’re winning games in an unconventional way? ” But I believe that demonstrates just how diverse this team is.

The Philadelphia Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers all lost to Philly, but they were all one-score games.

Although the Eagles’ special teams unit has had quiet starts this year, it has been a difficult two weeks for them to stop three straight kicks and return two for touchdowns.

DiCecco praised Michael Clay, the Eagles’ special teams coordinator, as one of the best in the industry.

Every year, unlike offence and defense, where there is more consistency, players are assigned to special teams. Starting players for the Eagles compete on special teams. You can go out there and make plays because there is a collective buy-in and a vested interest from these players.

The “Tush Push” play, a variation of the traditional quarterback sneak, was created by Philly’s head coach Nick Sirianni, where players assist in pushing the quarterback for a short-yardage touchdown in short-yardage situations.

Although 22 team owners voted against the play being banned in May, the Eagles have mastered it, so it was insufficient to ban the Tush Push.

However, Philly are now producing “fake Tush Push” plays that start out similar but turn out to be different. Jalen Hurts returned the ball for Barkley to score a walk-in touchdown on one of these plays on Sunday.

Teams are attempting to sell out, according to DiCecco. However, the plays the Eagles are able to now escape cause a lot more options and makes defenses compelled to defend themselves knowing they have other plays to take into account.”

It’s fantastic, I think. It forces you to engage in various game-planning strategies, Schecter continued.

Teams are keeping their heels defensively on their heels by adding those little tidbits to the Tush Push. They are asking themselves, “Will they actually go up the middle?” Will they give it away? Will it be a play in progress? This is the NFL’s genius with its tactics, I mean.

Buffalo host New England on Sunday, while Denver will be the next team to attempt to stop the Tush Push.

When you get to the fifth week, you really get a good sense of a team’s identity on both sides of the ball, DiCecco said.
