There have been Super Bowls in the past in which injuries played a major role in the decision-making of the head coaches. One example came just a year ago, when the Philadelphia Eagles rolled into Super Bowl LII behind backup quarterback Nick Foles, who led the Birds to a title — thanks in large part to the “Philly Special” trick play that Foles had run in high school. Another Eagles-Patriots Super Bowl that revolved around player health was Super Bowl XXXIX, when Eagles coach Andy Reid inserted Donovan McNabb back in at quarterback before he was ready, even though Jeff Garcia had quarterbacked the team to the title game. McNabb was visibly unable to carry out the position, and the Patriots eked out a win. What injuries should you bear in mind with your NFL betting for Super Bowl LIII? There’s not much — but we do have some thoughts for you to consider.
