The Eagles of Philadelphia hoped to compensate for their 2023 Super bowl Overcome when they took the ground against the Kansas City chiefs on Sunday evening. They did more than that. Behind an effective day of the offensive and a suffocating of the defense, the birds rose to one of the most decisive championship victories of recent memory, blocking the champion’s heads for a 40-22 victory at the New Orleans.
Here are three of the biggest surprises in the rout of the Chiefs Eagles to claim the Super Bowl Lix:
To be clear, the nasty defeat of the chiefs is not entirely the fault of the quarter-arre. The protection was not robust at the front, where pro quasseurs like Joe Thuney and Creed Humphrey could not slow down the persistent rush of the Eagles. But it was easily the worst release of Mahomas since its loss of LV from the Super Bowl against the Buccaneers of Tampa Bay led by Tom Brady. It was half a decennia. And it was not only the tight pockets this time; Mahomes was truly off target on several cross-body darts, including two choices that kept the Eagles in front. There remains the standard for the arguments in terms of title, but it injured rather than helping KC this time.
It is true that the tight end of long time seemed a slower step in 2024, with an average of 8.5 yards in career per catch. However, he often saved his best job for the greatest moments. This was certainly not the case on Sunday, two years after helping the chiefs to advance his brother, Jason Kelce, in the Super Bowl LVII. Travis Kelce took place without a single take before half-time, and even when he finally managed to succeed in the break, he only gathered 39 yards in total, ending as a non-factor for an attack on Andy reid unusually intrucular.

The chiefs entered the Super Bowl Lix with a robust race defense, but all year round, Barkley had been unleashed like the Nfl Top artist big game, accumulating gusts of 20, 40 and even 60 yards as MVP of Eagles. However, he was held in defeat to fundamentally the full inclination of the Sunday championship. The best part for Philadelphia: it didn’t matter. The simple threat of his explosion kept the chiefs so busy that Devonta Smith and AJ Brown each exceeded the secondary for key scores, allowing Eagles to move to victory.
