Philadelphia Eagles Outplay Kansas City Chiefs With Dominant Defensive Play, Secure 2nd Super Bowl Title  

The high-flying Kansas City Chiefs' dreams for a Super Bowl three-peat were brutally demolished, courtesy of the Philadelphia Eagles' spell-bounding defensive play. Philly's dominant defensive unit left Patrick Mahomes frustrated, with Jalen Hurts delivering a fine job on the offensive side. It was the Chiefs' worst performance in the Super Bowl, with Mahomes being sacked six times, the most of his career.

The Chiefs fans witnessed a nightmare after the Eagles routed them 40-22 to win the franchise's second-ever Super Bowl win. QB Jalen Hurts threw for 221 yards, tossed two touchdowns and also ran for a score. Patrick Mahomes' late heroics in the 3rd & 4th quarters allowed him a finish with 257 passing yards and three TDs. He made a 24-yard score to Xavier Worthy in the 3rd quarter and then a 7-yard TD to DeAndre Hopkins, but that did not help them as Eagles win the coveted Lombardi Trophy.
