The great Texan quarterback confirms his second ring with the Kansas City Chiefs after defeating the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII and is confirmed as Tom Brady’s successor
Patrick Mahomes’ reign in the NFL will be a long one. The great Texan quarterback secured his second ring with the Kansas City Chiefs after defeating the Philadelphia Eagles in an unforgettable Super Bowl and seized the throne vacated by the legendary Tom Brady when the Californian announced his retirement a few weeks ago.
The Missouri franchise lifted the Vince Lombardi Trophy at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona at the end of an epic game that will go down in history as it pitted two African-American quarterbacks against each other for the first time to win the event. magnified further by waging a titanic confrontation.
Jalen Hurts sealed, with three career touchdowns, a memorable performance commanding a number of mighty Eagles who lived up to the star battle that completed their star. But in the end, the glory fell to Mahomes, one of those generational figures who can bear on his shoulders the full weight of a sport that is paralyzing the United States and expanding its borders with increasing force.
He was still limping from the injury he sustained in the Divisional Round game against the Jacksonville Jaguars that forced him to play the American Conference (AFC) Finals with a visible limp that didn’t stop him from taking revenge for the elimination he suffered last year. of the Cincinnati Bengals, Magic Man had to overcome a first half in Arizona in which the Eagles laid their law and amplified the Chiefs’ post-locker comeback to see them hit NFL heavens for the third time in his story.
After clinching the championship in 1970 with Len Dawson as the benchmark, the Chiefs haven’t been out of the Conference Finals since they drafted Mahomes five years ago, sparking a tectonic movement in American football. They have played in three of the last four Super Bowls and won two. A baggage that is more than enough to declare the beginning of a dynasty and establish Mahomes as the new epicenter of the NFL.
The Texan has won 11 of his first 14 playoff games, something only Troy Aikman and Tom Brady had done so far. With just five years with the elite, he already has two regular season MVPs and as many in the Super Bowl, putting him in the same league as Brady, Joe Montana, Steve Young and Peyton Manning. At 27, he’s making a solid rise among giants after beginning a high-tension clash in which he capitalized on his prowess to score four touchdowns and two field goals to even out the eight drives of a team that was subdued for much of the game. the game, but who knew how to resist to strike at the right time.
The Eagles, on the other hand, went from better to worse. Less than five minutes were enough for the Pennsylvanians to open the scoring with a touchdown that opened Hurts’ ultimately unsuccessful recital. The Chiefs responded immediately by using the unrestricted partnership of Mahomes and Travis Kelce to finish the first quarter at 7-7.
The Eagles opened the gas again with a spectacular 45-yard pass from Hurts that rocked AJ Brown to pulverize the Chiefs’ defense. Kansas City needed a boost and the defensive line met the challenge with greatness. The pressure on Hurts paid off and Nick Bolton stumbled back level with over nine minutes left before the break.
That setback took no toll on the mind of Hurts, who masterfully executed Sirianni’s gritty script on the ensuing offense, giving the Eagles the lead at halftime after another impetuous strike from the quarterback in the end zone. Still, the touchdown was one less evil for the Chiefs, whose main concern was Mahomes’ right ankle, which was hit again after being chased by a defender just before halftime.
The Chiefs put down an extra gear after passing the stand. Mahomes used his repertoire to orchestrate an electric strike and Isiah Pacheco drew the game-ending touchdown. The Missouri ones had just won the last seven games in which they started the final quarter on the scoreboard. Mahomes, a comeback specialist, reserved another kidney stroke. A Toney touchdown on another masterful pass from Mahomes gave the Chiefs (28-27) the first lead with 12:04 left in the game. By this time, Magic Man’s head and arm were carrying his team.
The Eagles attacked the hit. Another touchdown, this time by Skyy Moore, enabled the Missourians to land in the middle (35-27). Hurts’ response was fantastic. The third career touchdown on his personal account and a conversion of two, also sealed by the quarterback, tied the forces again (35-35) and passed the gauntlet to Mahomes with just over five minutes remaining . He didn’t even flinch. With Pacheco and Kelce I played it safe. A hold against the defense buried the Eagles’ last hope, embalmed by a Butker field goal but shrouded in a competitor as fierce as it was tireless. With Brady out of court, Mahomes has no intention of relinquishing the crown.
