In a commanding performance, the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX, preventing the Chiefs from achieving a historic third consecutive championship. The Eagles’ defense was formidable, sacking Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes six times and intercepting him twice, including a pick-six by Cooper DeJean. Offensively, quarterback Jalen Hurts led the Eagles with 221 passing yards, two touchdowns, and a rushing touchdown. This victory marks the Eagles’ fifth franchise title and their first since 2017.

The Kansas City Chiefs had a chance Sunday night to do what no team has done in NFL history: win three straight Super Bowls.
Instead, they ran into a buzzsaw.
The Philadelphia Eagles dominated Super Bowl LIX from the start, winning 40-22 at the Superdome in New Orleans. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts threw for two touchdowns and ran for one, and the Eagles defense suffocated the Chiefs offense and star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
The Eagles intercepted Mahomes twice in the first half, returning one for a touchdown, and they sacked him six times. They also forced a Mahomes fumble in the second half.
The game was a rematch of the Super Bowl two years ago, which the Chiefs won 38-35. But this time, the Eagles came out on top to claim their second Super Bowl title in franchise history. They won their first one seven years ago.
