New Orleans – La Défense, the former coaches told us, won the championships.
And while the modern NFL, happy to score, sometimes makes this old saw sound, the champion of the Super Bowl Lix Philadelphia Eagles would like a word.
Sunday evening in a city that welcomed more super bowls than any other, the quest for Kansas City chiefs for the story of the Super Bowl has never even taken off. The teeming defense of Philadelphia held Patrick Mahomes and the two champions in title only 23 yards in the first half, led 24-0 at halftime and won a 40-22 victory which prevented the chiefs of Become the first team to win three super super consecutive. Bol titles and rather delivered the second in the history of Eagles.
The quarter-Arrière Jalen Hurts, whose screen saver of the phone for two years was a photo of him leaving the LVII field of the Super Bowl in Arizona surrounded by yellow and red confetti after losing against the chiefs, was absolutely brilliant , launching for 221 yards, rushing for 72 and counting three affected. He launched only five incompleteness with an interception for a QB note of 119.7.
The defense forced three reversals and held Mahomas and the Kansas City offensive at 275 yards. It was a party all night at the end of a week’s party for Eagles fans in The Big Easy. And in the end, it was the coach of injuries and Eagles often malignant, Nick Sirianni, holding the Lombardi trophy.
The Eagles took the right of the chiefs and did not drop. The first half was a mixture of things that are not supposed to happen. The chiefs bottled the Star of the Eagles, the Ballon Ball Carrier Barkley, limiting it to 31 yards in 12 races before half-time. But that did not matter, in part because Hurts made punctual throws and sharp decisions, in part because the chiefs were pulled in the foot with unusual penalties and in part because Mahomes launched two interceptions – Something he has only done five more in his career in his career in one half.
But as shocking as the domination of the Eagles could have been, the fundamental problem which cost the chiefs their chance of history was the same which cost them the Super Bowl four years ago against the buccaneers led most of this season Regular like the one who could do them: they could not protect their quarterrier.
Philadelphia generated pressure on seven of the 17 drops of Mahomes in the first half despite the non-blitz once. The offensive line player of veterans chiefs Joe Thuney, who seemed to have solved the problem of the team’s left tackle when they moved him from the left guard with five games to do in regular season, were mistreated with several taken up by the defensive front of the Eagles. Josh Sweat and Nolan Smith, interior pressure from Milton Williams and Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis … No matter where it came from, Mahomes could do nothing against him.
And every time it seemed that the chefs could have a chance to do something for even things, they have done the kind of massive error that you do not expect from a team that plays in this game each year. An unnecessary roughness penalty by Trent McDuffie which extended the reader who led to the first points of the Eagles of the match. A forced launch of Mahomas that the corner half of the recruit of the Eagles, Cooper Dejean, intercepted and ran for a touchdown. An unnecessary roughness penalty of Post-Lose by Nick Bolton which transformed a third and 26 into first and 10. The second interception of Mahomes, who came a game after the defense of Kansas City forced a shift and kept held The 17-0 score with 1:49 to do in half-time.
It was the Eagles, not the sustainable champion chiefs, who looked like the more composed and experienced team. It was the often unloved and underestimated injuries, not the finalist of the MVP Barkley, who led the offensive. And it was the defense, which ended last year as one of the worst in the NFL and turned this year into its best, which made life miserable for Muhams all night.
Barkley’s signature was the headliner of the Brilliant 2024 of Eagles, but you can argue that the hiring of Vic Fangio as a defensive coordinator and the editorial staff of the defensive back DEJEAN and Cinyon Mitchell were the movements The most important. The Eagles have the highest ninth quarter of the league, the third highest ball carrier, the highest fourth side, the highest paid goalkeeper, the highest tackle and the fifth- tackle the best paid left. They are one of the only two teams (with Tampa Bay) to pay two different different receivers at least 25 million dollars per year. They have invested large wage ceiling resources in their offense, which means that they absolutely need to obtain high -end production of defensive players who do not earn high -end money.
To this end, the Eagles led the league this year in defensive shots played by players on their recruit contracts. They also ranked third in bags, third of the plated and first in the victory rate by pass pass by the players on the recruit business. Their last four recovery classes have brought them Milton Williams, Jordan Davis, Nakobe Dean, Nolan Smith, Jalen Carter and the defensive backs recruited above,
The coverage of Mitchell and the interception of Dejean were essential parts of the victory of Sunday, but the Eagles obtained bags of Williams and the twin of the recruit Jalyx to go with the 2.5 that the free agent in Josh Sweat expectation collected. Nolan Smith hunted Mahomes on a critical game at the start of the game and prevented what could have been a big gain. Davis and Carter were each was credited with a quarter. It was a total team effort of a defense whose construction was exceptional and whose coaching gathered everything.
Sunday evening in New Orleans, everything has paid ultimately for the Eagles. The injury that lingered two years ago when they let the chefs hang out and come back to beat them in the Super Bowl LVII. The recovery of the collapse of the second half from last year and the release of the playoffs. The second consecutive year amending offensive and defensive coordinators. Barkley’s signature. Georgia projects.
Strange pop-up controversies that have dotted their season, whether Sirianni with fans, AJ Brown criticizing the “passage” and reading books on the touch, Brandon Graham broadcasting the dirty whiteness on a podcast at Chickie and Pete’s … All of all the ups and downs of the last three seasons have peaks in a victory defined in a career on Sunday for Roseman, Sirianni, Hurts and everyone at Midnight Green.
