Merciless Philadelphia Eagles dismantle Kansas City Chiefs to win Super Bowl

Seven years after winning their first Vince Lombardi trophy, the Philadelphia Eagles are back on top of the NFL mountaintop. Behind a MVP performance from quarterback Jalen Hurts and a defensive masterclass that harried, hit and harassed Patrick Mahomes into one of the worst games of his career, the Eagles roared to a 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night in New Orleans that wasn't as close as the scoreline suggests. The 59th Super Bowl was the second meeting in three years between Philadelphia and Kansas City on the NFL's biggest stage, with the Eagles still nursing the scars of the first installment: a heart-stopping 38-35 Chiefs win in Arizona in which a hobbled Mahomes orchestrated a near-perfect second half to overturn a 10-point deficit that erased Hurts' career-best performance.
