What to know: Sometimes you blink, and an NFL Season can go by right before your eyes! Today, we buckle up for Super Bowl LIX (59), a rematch from just two seasons ago between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles!
Doesnât it seem like just yesterday when we had the Isaiah Likely BIG TOE incident to kick off the season? Itâs hard to believe the NFL Season is coming to an end, but here we are, at a very familiar sight! When the playoffs started, everybody was talking about the 10 matchups that the fans would want to see. Things like Lions-Ravens, Lions-Bills, Commanders-Ravens, etc. The list genuinely goes on and on. The more things change, the more things stay the same; here we are again. Chiefs-Eagles.
We could go on forever and ever about the storylines here. Thereâs Kansas City going for the threepeat, Saquon in his first year with Philly, the bad blood from two years ago, the Andy Reid Bowl of him coaching against his former teamâŠ..the refs. Thereâs a whole lot of things going on, but all it means is that there are some spectacular players on the field.
Saquon Barkley, at 2,447 yards on the year, is just 29 rush yards shy of Terrell Davisâ all-time record for combined yards in a regular season and postseason. His numbers have been insane this year, and he has put the team on his back this postseason. This seems like a classic unstoppable force vs an immovable object. Saquon Barkley vs Steve Spagnuolaâs defense. The Chiefs have been stout on the defensive side of the ball, and Mahomes, as he always does, has turned it up to another level in the postseason.
Despite the FIREPOWER in this game, I wonât lie to you, because we donât do that here at the STUMP. Itâs hard to get fired up for this game. Thereâs some serious Chiefs fatigue, and the only reason I enjoy watching the Eagles is Saquon Barkley. I donât know what the ratings will be on this one, but regardless, there will be history made one way or another.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me ten times, and weâre watching possibly the greatest run in NFL history.
100% of me wants the Eagles to win, but I gotta go with the guys who keep doing it.
Actually.
You know what.
F*CK THAT! GIVE ME SAQUON BARKLEY TO RUN ALL OVER THOSE BOYS IN RED! I WANT THE EAGLES!
FLY EAGLES FLY!
EAGLES 33 - CHIEFS 24 !
Mahomes interception to end the game! Fool me 100 times, I donât care. Not picking them to win! Not today. Not tomorrow. Not ever.
