This year, it’s Birds VS Humans (again). Historically, Birds have won only 3 SB’s while Humans have 35 SB victories under their collective belts. When Birds play against Humans, they have a 1 and 6 record.
The only time a bird defeated a human mascot was in 2013 at Super Bowl XLVII when the Ravens toppled the 49ers by 3 points.
Mascot odds are against the Eagles this year, and as much as I distain the New England Patriots, they are a great team. But I think the Birds are going to pull it off this year. Go Eagles!
