History is often written with crooked lines. The Super Bowl number 59 was called to be memorable, to mark an era.
The Kansas City Chiefs (Missuri), commanded by their field marshal Patrick Mahomes, had the opportunity to win three consecutive titles, something never achieved. Everything went to fret from the initial 0-7 in favor of the Filadelphia Eagles, who did a demolition exercise. Lacking emotion and was one of the finals with less tension in recent years.
The clash ended 22-40 for the Eagles, but that result is makeup in favor of the losers. Lacking scarce three minutes to finish the third quarter, the Chiefs scored their first points to get 6-34. And in the absence of six minutes to conclude the final of the Professional Football League (NFL), the eyes had to be shiver when the score was looked at: 6-40.
The last two Touchdown of Missuri’s occurred when the rivals celebrated the victory and soaked their chief coach, Nick Sirianni.
This final of the American Football League was the revenge of the one two years ago. “We’ll return,” said Jalen Hurts, quaterback from Pennsylvania. And it is already known that the story is written by the winners. Chosen MVP of the game, this field marshal made passes that added 202 meters, two touchdowns and ran with the ball for 65 meters, in a demonstration of the double threat of their skills.
Hurts, with the collaboration of Running Back Saquon Barkley, who celebrated his 28th birthday, and the magnificent defensive work, shattered the Chiefs. And that Barkley, however, was more guarded than in other games and was not so explosive.
Mahomes will have nightmares, he had never been on the scoreboard 34 points behind. They blocked him six times and in two others he was intercepted his passes. In one, the Cooper Defense left not only recovered the ball but ran and scored a touchdown.
“The defense wins championships,” said Hurts at the end of the final and being distinguished as the best of the final for its work in attack. “The defense wins championships and we have seen the difference they have made, the defenses gave us a short field and we have been able to do what we have done,” he insisted on praise.
That interception to Mohamses meant the 24-0 with which the break was reached. Since the Super Bowl of 2017 there was no interception with TouchDown. Then it happened to Tom Brady, the played with more rings, defending the New England Patriots shirt. They reached the break losing to the Atlanta Falcons by 21-3. But Brady and his people traced and won.
That idea was driving through the New Orleans Caesars Superdome, which had for the first time the assistance of a president of the United States. They say that Donald Trump went with the Chiefs and devised his field marshal in entertainment. Mahomes is quaterback under 30 years of age with better records at their age, even superior to Brady’s in the comparison. Why not think about tracing a 24-0 if the chiefs were a legend team?
Trump left at the break, after the Kendrick Lamar show. In the resumption, it was immediately confirmed that nothing had changed in the locker room and it was certified that it was not the night of Mohamses or Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift’s boyfriend. This time he was not seen jumping for joy, nor was there a kiss on the grass.
The Eagles, famous for their line of attack, set up a defense that was impregnable for the leader of Kansas. After an Hurts pass 46 meters away, Davonta Smith made a spectacular reception, which was the fourth Touchdown on the Eagles flight. And 0-34 in the third quarter.
At that time, the body language of Mohomes, Kelce and the rest of his colleagues spoke of defeat, without palliative.
The story is not repeated but Rima, which Mark Twain held. The Eagles won their first Super Bowl in 2018. They surpassed the Brady Patriots by 41-33. That final, like this Sunday, was a rematch. In 2005, those of Boston defeated those of Philadelphia, whose coach was called Andy Reid, now the losing coach of the Chiefs. For another of the coincidences, Sirianni, a victorious coach, began his career as an offensive expert at the Chiefs.
“God is good and, personally, I have been able to use all the experience I learned in the defeat of two years ago, the good and the bad,” said Hurts. In the screen protector of his phone he had a photo of that night, he in the middle of the rainfall dedicated to the chiefs. “I am still processing the victory,” he replied this Sunday by winning his first ring.
