“EAGLES = CHAMPIONS”

3-Straight Super Bowls….Hell No…Period Exclamation Point !
All anyone wanted to talk about was ‘3-Peat-Kansas City Chiefs’. By the end of the opening quarter, it was said and decided.
The Philadelphia Eagles mauled the Chiefs (40-22) in one of the worst lopsided beatings in modern day Super Bowl football.
What happened Sunday night was worse than the Chicago Bears (45-10) destruction of the New England Patriots or the 49ers decimation of the San Diego Chargers (49-26).
But what was shocking was it happened to the Chiefs, their dynamic QB-Patrick Mahomes, and their brilliant coach Andy Reid.
But at the end of the day, there was too much Green. Too much Eagles defense. Too much Philly offensive line. Too much Jalen Hurts.
The Chiefs could not protect Mahomes. They could not run the ball. They could not get guys open till the game was effectively over in the 3rd quarter.
The statistics were dominant. A defense that had 6-sacks…2-picks…1-fumble recovery…9-hits and 15-pressures of Mahomes.
Hurts had (293) all purpose yards. There was a 46Y-TD pass…a 37-pick six by a safety…four field goals from Jake Elliott…back to back picks on series and 3-straight QB sacks, and then a Gator Ade shower for the always hot headed Nick Sirianni.
Hard to believe this team, any team coached by Andy Reid, would be outgained (177-20) in yardage and 13-to-1 on first downs late in the first half.
The Chiefs biggest issue all year was the left-right tackle protection problems of their quarterback. And the Eagles destroyed them, rendering Mahomes with little protection, help, or any chance of getting an offense going early in the game.
You cannot take away Reid’s track record in the playoffs, cannot denounce Mahomes’ (17-3) playoff record coming into the game. His team won all those 1-score games, but they had never lined up in such a mismatch in years, and they could not cope.
The scary point, Philadelphia is so young, so physical, so dominant, ao deep, that this may be the beginning of a dynastic team for the next group of years. Take nothing away from the Chiefs, for this has been a great run, but that is now in the past, and the Eagles have to be the topic of conversation in the future.
Chiefs, a 3-peat champion. Hell no. The Eagles 40-22 win was a ‘Period-Exclamation Point ! performance.
