The Philadelphia Eagles dominated Super Bowl 59, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 to claim their second championship in franchise history. Celebrating under green-and-white confetti at the Superdome in New Orleans, the Eagles controlled the game from start to finish, never allowing the Chiefs to find their rhythm.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts led the charge, earning Super Bowl MVP honors with 221 passing yards, two touchdowns, and one interception, along with 72 rushing yards and a touchdown. His leadership and versatility kept Philadelphia in control throughout the game.
The Chiefs entered the matchup seeking a historic third straight Super Bowl victory, but their hopes quickly unraveled. By the third quarter, they were on the verge of becoming the first team ever to be held scoreless in a Super Bowl. Patrick Mahomes threw for 257 yards, but all three of his touchdown passes came when Kansas City was already trailing 34-0. Travis Kelce, a key piece of the Chiefs’ past successes, had a quiet night with four catches for 39 yards.
While Kansas City’s dreams of a three-peat ended in disappointment, the night belonged to Philadelphia, who cemented their place in NFL history with a dominant performance on the biggest stage.
