The flock of Eagles has fought against the fierce winds of Chiefs Nation and its supporters. Jalen Hurts and company have clinched the top spot in the NFL this year, winning the Super Bowl for the first time since their 2018 victory. This was a rematch of the 2023 Eagles vs. Chiefs game, where Kansas City had secured a narrow win.
After the Super Bowl triumph, superstar quarterback Jalen Hurts was seen smiling as the 26-year-old was named Super Bowl MVP. What a comeback by Hurts! Alongside him, Saquon Barkley and Cooper DeJean celebrated their birthdays as Super Bowl champions.
As renowned American author Nick Adams remarked, “Thousands of little white boys will remember Cooper DeJean’s pick-six in the Super Bowl for the rest of their lives,” the victory was indeed a memorable one.

Though Saquon Barkley didn’t run the unthinkable yards, like 60+ and so, he made crucial rushing yards in the first half. The offensive pressure and the defensive dominance helped the Eagles to stop the Chiefs at ZERO points in the first two quarters. Saquon Barkley has been phenomenal for the Eagles this season. Barkley became the first running back in NFL history to rush for 60+ yards five times in a single season. Well, he wasn’t the only hero of this historic win.
As the Eagles clinched their second Super Bowl, HC Nick Sirianni got emotional. After the win, Sirianni couldn’t hold tears and said, “There come the happy tears,” while addressing the Super Bowl crowd. He shed tears, while his four-year-old son, Miles, chanted, “E-A-G-L-E-S,” after the Super Bowl 59 win. Concluding his fourth year with the Eagles on a victorious note, Sirianni soaked up the glory. In his 15 years of coaching career, this was his first Super Bowl. And for the Eagles fans, it is a dream come true.

As soon as the playoffs started, it was a general assumption that defeating Patrick Mahomes was nearly impossible. They were 15-2 in the regular season. And in the playoffs, they crossed all hurdles without breaking a sweat. Whether it was the Texans or the Bills, they won every battle. But the Eagles proved a difficult terrain altogether.

Andy Reid said before the game that Mahomes’s attitude changes when he enters the playoffs. But Jalen Hurts and his crew proved that it’s a myth. To be honest, this was one of the worst games for Showtime. They sacked Mahomes six times and intercepted him twice. This might sound shocking, but Mahomes had a QBR of 11.7 in the SB LIX game. Kansas City fans can’t deny the facts.
