The Philadelphia Eagles’ defense was the star of Super Bowl LIX, sacking Patrick Mahomes six times in a 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. The Eagles’ defensive front was relentless, registering 11 quarterback hits and pressuring Mahomes on 38% of his dropbacks. Mahomes struggled, throwing two interceptions, including a pick-six, and finishing with a QBR of 11.4, the second lowest in Super Bowl history. Josh Sweat and Milton Williams led the charge with multiple sacks, becoming only the third Super Bowl duo to achieve this feat. The Eagles’ defensive strategy was simple yet effective, focusing on rushing and covering without changing their game plan. The Chiefs’ talk of a three-peat, which included securing the trademark for the phrase, seemed to fuel the Eagles’ motivation.
