Here are the Eagles’ grades by position after a dominant win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX
They completely dominated a team going for the first three-peat in Super Bowl history. The final score was 40-22 but it wasn’t anywhere near that close.This is the second Lombardi Trophy in Eagles history but this time the party pretty much started in the second quarter. Jalen Hurts: 17/22, 221 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT; 11 rushing attempts, 72 yards, 1 TD
At just 26 years old, Jalen Hurts got to hoist the Lombardi Trophy on Sunday night in New Orleans and also took home MVP honors. Sure, Hurts threw an interception the second quarter but that was really his only mistake. He completed over 77% of his passes. His 72 rushing yards are the most ever for a quarterback in a Super Bowl, surpassing his own record of 70 yards from Super Bowl LVII a couple years ago.And Hurts’ passer rating of 119.7 was the highest of his postseason career.
Both coordinators had good games in this one. Kellen Moore finished off his one-year stint with the Eagles strong; he’s expected to get hired by the Saints for their head coaching job. And Vic Fangio put on a clinic. He didn’t blitz one time on Sunday and called a masterful game to beat Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.
