Kevin Hart stood true to his roots when asked about who he thinks will come out on top when his Philadelphia Eagles host the Minnesota Vikings for the NFC Championship game at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday, January 21. As Hart put it, fans ought to know that he is "forever Philadelphia."
"Why would you even ask that question? It's a common sense answer," Hart replied when a TMZ reporter approached him about what he predicts will happen as he made his exit from Catch in West Hollywood on Thursday night. If the question is whether he genuinely thinks the Eagles will be the victor, Hart said: "Yes, with a double yes, with a double, double, double, double, double yes!"
Although the Eagles and the Vikings completed their seasons at the top of their respective divisions and tied for the best record in football, Philadelphia will enter Sunday's matchup as 3.5 point underdogs. Much of that has to do with the fact that oddsmakers remain skeptical as to whether quarterback Nick Foles can continue to ride his stroke of luck, in having only started a handful of games since franchise play-caller Carson Wentz went down.
Regardless the case, Hart appears to be as confident as he ever was as a fan reared up in the northern section of the city. A win over Minnesota would give them their first conference title since 2004.
