Quincy Avery is that guy when it comes to training quarterbacks, but during Super Bowl LIX, his name got dragged into the convo in a way no one saw coming. A viral tweet tried to link him to Patrick Mahomes’ performance, and instead of clapping back with football talk, Avery hit ’em with a flex—one that had X buzzing.
An X account called Dawgs Digest threw some shade, saying, “Patrick Mahomes playing like Quincy Avery is his QB coach,” basically implying Mahomes wasn’t on his A-game. And that’s not the performance we expected from the team as a whole as well. But, Avery? He didn’t waste a second defending himself. He just hit ’em with: “My bank account has 2 commas.” Translation? I’m rich, I’m good, and I don’t need that job. Even if it’s coaching Mahomes, Avery is chilling.

But real ones know Avery didn’t just pop up out of nowhere. His grind is different. After playing at Morehouse College, he literally packed up and drove from Atlanta to L.A., pulling up to UCLA to land a coaching gig. No handouts, no shortcuts—just hustle. That move set him up to work with some of the biggest names in the game, and now, he’s one of the most respected private QB coaches out there.
Through Quarterback Takeover, Avery has worked with QBs like Deshaun Watson, Jalen Hurts, Trey Lance, and even the late Dwayne Haskins. His whole deal? Helping guys level up their footwork, mechanics, and decision-making so they can really cook on the field. Whether he ever coaches Mahomes or not, one thing’s for sure—Avery is up, and he’s letting everybody know it.

The Eagles’ defense had the Chiefs running for their life
Super Bowl LIX was supposed to be another Patrick Mahomes masterclass, but the Eagles‘ defense had other plans. From the very first snap, they were all over him, shutting down the Chiefs‘ offense and making life miserable for the reigning champs. By halftime, Kansas City had just 23 total yards—yes, you read that right. The Eagles’ defense was out there playing like they had something to prove, and they did just that.
Philly’s defensive vets took the Chiefs’ three-peat talk personally. Brandon Graham made it clear after the game, saying, “That was motivation because it was kind of a slap to us. It was like, they ain’t seen us yet. So, we heard that all week. And when the game came, execution was on point.” And that execution? Six sacks. Two interceptions. Pure chaos.

Josh Sweat, one of the many Eagles defenders who caused problems all night, summed up their mindset: “If you look at how we wreck together and cover together, whoever makes the play makes the play.” And that’s exactly how it went down. Every time Mahomes tried to escape, someone was there. Every time the Chiefs looked like they were about to get something going, Philly shut it down.
By the time the final whistle blew, the Eagles had sealed a dominant 40-22 win, securing their second Super Bowl title. Their defense wasn’t just good—it was legendary. And if there was ever any doubt about this unit, they erased it on the biggest stage possible.
