The Super Bowl 59 is gearing up as Patrick Mahomes with the Kansas City Chiefs takes on Jalen Hurts and his Eagles on Sunday, 9th February 2025. The two teams squared off two years ago in the Super Bowl, where Kansas City secured the most thrilling victory of 38-35.
The Chiefs will now become the first franchise in the NFL to win three consecutive competitions in this tournament with their win in Super Bowl LIX.
Meanwhile, this will be the fifth appearance Kansas City will make in the Super Bowl since 2019, whereas the Eagles will look forward to lifting their Lombardi Trophy for the second time in the franchise’s history and the first time since 2018.
Teams Overview
Kansas City Chiefs
There is an air of optimism for the Kansas City Chiefs because Patrick Mahomes magic is a real thing and the Chiefs’ offense has several capable pass catchers like every other season. With Xavier Worthy Travis Kelce, and other supporting cast, including Hollywood Brown DeAndre Hopkins, and JuJu Smith-Schuster, the upcoming game will be high-scoring for the Chiefs, since Mahomes has had the team’s longest run with an excellent track record.
Philadelphia Eagles
Philadelphia’s quarterback, Jalen Hurts plays a huge role in the rushing attack in the championship. He requires only 10 carries to tally three rushing scores. Hurts is currently up to 18 rushing scores in 18 matches. He will draw a distinct test against Chiefs defense that limited Josh Allen, the MVP candidate, to 39 yards without any scores on 11 carries in the AFC championship.
Now it all comes down to determining whether Saquon Barkley will be enough to defeat the mighty Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes. Overall, running back Saquon has performed remarkably for the Eagles and racked up five touchdowns and 442 rushing yards in the postseason.
