The Philadelphia Eagles completed one of the most comprehensive Super Bowl victories in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl 59.
The fourth quarter, though, was the lowest-scoring period for the Eagles inside the Superdome in New Orleans.
The Kansas City Chiefs outscored the Eagles in the fourth quarter, but it was far too little, too late for Patrick Mahomes and Co. to stage a comeback.
Xavier Worthy and DeAndre Hopkins caught touchdown passes from Mahomes to make the final score look a bit more respectable for the Chiefs.
Super Bowl 59 Box Score
Kansas City - 0 0 6 16 - 22
Philadelphia - 7 17 10 6 -40
The Eagles added to their advantage with two Jake Elliott field goals in the fourth quarter.
Elliott knocked in field goals from 48 and 50 yards to open up the lead to 34 points.
Worthy finished with the most receiving yards in the Super Bowl. He was the only player on either team with more than 70 receiving yards. He had 157 yards and two touchdowns on eight catches.
DeVonta Smith was the Eagles' top pass-catcher with 69 yards on four catches. A.J. Brown chipped in 43 receiving yards of his own.
The Eagles won without an incredibly effective game out of Saquon Barkley, who had 57 yards on 25 carries. He did have six catches for 40 yards.
Philadelphia's defense forced three turnovers. one of which was a Cooper DeJean pick six, to open up the advantage and stay in front for the entire game.
The Philadelphia Eagles hoisted the Lombardi Trophy Sunday night in New Orleans, capping off one of the most dominant defensive performances in Super Bowl…
Eagles Win Super Bowl LIX vs. Chiefs as NFL Fans Celebrate Jalen Hurts, Defense

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts crushed the Kansas City Chiefs with his arm and legs while a bruising and ferocious Philly defense stole the show en route to a 40-22 win in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday in New Orleans.
Hurts completed 17-of-22 passes for 221 yards, two touchdowns and one interception while rushing for 72 yards and one more score.
The Chiefs' defense was keyed in on stopping Offensive Player of the Year and running back Saquon Barkley, the NFL's ninth 2,000-yard rusher who understandably had a tough time getting going against stacked boxes.
That put the offense in Hurts' hands, and he answered the bell and then some.
Jalen Hurts has my vote for Super Bowl MVP. Finish this game and enjoy the celebration. Fly Eagles Fly!
Jalen Hurts getting benched in college football’s title game before going on to win a Super Bowl as a starting quarterback is going to be a great replacement for the “Michael Jordan got cut in high school” story we tell our children when things don’t go so well in sports.
The Eagles pass rush should be the primary story from this game but said on The Forecast this week that I felt Jalen Hurts had caught too much crap during this Eagles season and he’s shown a lot of his excellent qualities tonight.
It cannot be understated how hilariously dumb all of you Jalen Hurts haters look. Go stand in your clown bathrooms, look in your clown mirrors, and apply your clown makeup. You were all wrong about this man.
happy for Jalen Hurts. quite a journey since Saban benched him in national championship game 7 years ago. he heard a lot of people say he wouldn't be a quality NFL QB. great talent and character
Jalen Hurts has been efficient, clutch. The offensive and defensive lines have dominated. AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith have made big third-down catches. Back seven on defense has made plays on the ball.
After the PAT, Philadelphia led 34-0, and the rest of this game was a formality.
It was a great effort from Hurts, especially after he bounced back from a tough interception on a ball intended for Brown that Chiefs safety Bryan Cook grabbed at the Kansas City two-yard line.
Hurts also got revenge on the Chiefs after he and the Eagles fell 38-35 to them in the Super Bowl two years ago. As has been reported numerous times, Hurts had cell phone wallpaper of him walking off the field after that tough Super Bowl LVII loss.
"I don't need a screensaver to remind me of anything, but it's there."@JalenHurts still has the wallpaper of himself walking off the field following the Super Bowl LVII loss. pic.twitter.com/8LaafkXH6T
Now he's emerging triumphant after a well-deserved victory.
The offense and defense played complementary football in this one. The D raised hell all night, making Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes run for his life and sacking the three-time Super Bowl champion six times, including a strip sack in the fourth quarter.
Brown scored his touchdown two plays later to put the Chiefs in a massive hole they stayed in for the duration of the game.
The Chiefs' offense finally got going in the second half, but they couldn't dig themselves out of a 34-0 hole. Mahomes did finish with 257 passing yards and three touchdowns, two to Xavier Worthy (eight catches, 157 yards) and one to DeAndre Hopkins.
But it was too little and too late as the Eagles' D did more than enough to win this game.
The 2024 Philadelphia Eagles defense will go down in history.
I really don't know which Eagles defensive player wins MVP. Maybe Josh Sweat? This is reminiscent of Super Bowl 48, where the entire defense dominated and Malcolm Smith won.
Vic Fangio coordinated what looked like a Super Bowl-caliber defense with the #Bears in 2018. That team wasn’t complete or ready to win. These Eagles are and this domination is courtesy of Fangio’s defense. What a great moment for a terrific, salt-of-the-earth guy. #SuperBowlLIX
It hasn't been uncommon in past Super Bowls for two conference-champion teams to do battle in a game that looked fairly even on paper beforehand only for one side to throughly crush the other post-kickoff. Examples include Super Bowl LV (Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31, Chiefs 9), Super Bowl XLVIII (Seattle Seahawks 43, Denver Broncos 8) and Super Bowl XXXVII (Bucs 48, Oakland Raiders 21).
The Eagles added their names to that list Sunday, after the Hurts-led offense and the dominant defense prevented the first Super Bowl three-peat and cemented themselves as one of the best teams in recent NFL history after a 17-3 season capped by outscoring their final two opponents (including a 55-23 win over the NFC runner-up Washington Commanders) by a 95-37 score.
Eagles' DeVonta Smith Becomes 1st Player Drafted from Alabama to Score Super Bowl TD

DeVonta Smith made history during Super Bowl LIX on Sunday.
The Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver became the first player drafted from Alabama to score a touchdown in the Super Bowl with a 46-yard grab in the third quarter.

The score helped the Eagles build a 34-0 lead over the Kansas City Chiefs in a rematch of Super Bowl 57.
Smith hauled in four receptions for a team-high 69 yards through three quarters on Sunday.
It was an impressive game from the 26-year-old, who was limited in practice with a hamstring injury leading up to the game.
Jalen Hurts was also teammates with Smith on the Crimson Tide for two seasons, but the signal-caller finished his college career at Oklahoma before Philadelphia selected him with a second-round pick in the 2020 NFL draft.
In the following year, the Eagles drafted Smith with the No. 10 overall pick following a stellar senior season at Alabama. He became the first wide receiver to win the Heisman Trophy since 1991.
The Tide have consistently produced NFL talent, as they had the most players of any school on active rosters during Week 1 of the 2024 season (h/t SI.com's Christopher Walsh). It marked the eighth consecutive season that Alabama ranked No. 1.
Smith has remained a key piece of Philadelphia's passing offense throughout his NFL career, forming one of the league's top wide receiver duos alongside A.J. Brown.
While Smith only appeared in 13 regular-season games due to hamstring issues as well as a concussion, he still caught 68 passes for 833 yards to go along with a career-high eight touchdowns.
He wasn't tasked with a large role throughout Philadelphia's playoff run due to the team's imposing rushing attack, but he still operated as a reliable option when called upon. In three postseason starts prior to Sunday's contest, Smith caught all 12 of his targets for 121 yards.
The former Tide also had a historic performance against Kansas City in Super Bowl 59.

The Philadelphia Eagles extended their Super Bowl 59 advantage in the third quarter against the Kansas City Chiefs.
However, Patrick Mahomes and Co. finally got on the board at the end of the period on a touchdown pass to Xavier Worthy.
Philadelphia appeared to close the door on the Chiefs with a touchdown pass of its own from Jalen Hurts to DeVonta Smith.
The Eagles head into the fourth quarter with a 34-6 advantage and the ball after KC's late third-quarter score.
Updated Super Bowl 59 Score
Kansas City 0 0 6 - 6
Philadelphia 7 17 10 - 34
The Eagles broke their lead open to 34 points on DeVonta Smith's 46-yard touchdown reception from Hurts.
Worthy had two big catches on Kansas City's first scoring drive, and thanks to those long receptions, he is the game's leading receiver going into the fourth quarter.
Worthy has four catches for 83 yards. Smith is second to Worthy on the game receiving chart with 69 yards from four receptions.
The two biggest offensive stars in the game, Saquon Barkley and Travis Kelce, have been contained through three quarters.
Barkley has 18 carries for 47 yards, while Kelce has two catches for 22 yards. Both of Kelce's catches came in the third quarter.

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl LIX halftime show at Caesars Superdome on Sunday was a memorable one.
Lamar's performance featured an introduction from actor Samuel L. Jackson before the rapper played several of his hit songs.
Lamar's setlist included "Squabble Up," "Humble," "Euphoria" and "Luther." The show featured an appearance from SZA, who performed alongside the 22-time Grammy Award-winning rapper.
Lamar teased his popular diss track aimed at fellow rapper Drake, "Not Like Us," several times throughout the show before finally playing it in front of the crowd.
The Philadelphia Eagles held a 24-0 lead over the Kansas City Chiefs heading into the second half of Sunday's Super Bowl clash.
Eagles' Saquon Barkley Breaks Terrell Davis' NFL Record for Rushing Yards in 1 Season

Saquon Barkley made history in the Super Bowl on Sunday.
The Philadelphia Eagles star running back broke NFL legend Terrell Davis' record for the most rushing yards in the regular season and playoffs combined. Davis set the record in 1998 when he recorded 2,476 yards, but Barkley got to 2,478 yards in the first half of Sunday's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Barkley came into the game with 2,447 rushing yards and picked up 31 in the first half to get the record. The first-year Eagle had 2,005 rushing yards in the regular season and has been just as dominant in the postseason.
He had 119 yards in the wild-card round against the Green Bay Packers, 205 in the divisional round against the Los Angeles Rams and 118 in the NFC Championship win over the Washington Commanders, making his rushing-yard total through three postseason games 442.
Barkley, who is playing in his second postseason of his career, also scored five touchdowns in the games before the Super Bowl.
Barkley's regular-season rushing total was just 100 yards shy of matching the single-season rushing record set by Eric Dickerson in 1984.
With the help of Barkley, the Eagles enjoyed a comfortable lead heading into the second half against the Chiefs. Philadelphia led Kansas City 24-0 thanks to a touchdown pass from Jalen Hurts to A.J. Brown, a score on the ground from Hurts and a pick-six from rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean.
Barkley, who joined the Eagles over the offseason after six years with the Giants, is now looking to cap off his career year with a championship.
Patrick Mahomes' 1st-half Super Bowl Struggles Baffle NFL Fans as Chiefs Trail Eagles

It was not an ideal start for Patrick Mahomes in Super Bowl LIX.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback went 6-of-14 for 33 yards and two interceptions in the opening half, including one interception that was returned for a touchdown by Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Cooper DeJean
These struggles limited Kansas City's offensive output and the team entered halftime facing a 24-0 deficit.
This is the third time a Patrick Mahomes offense has been shutout in the first half in his career… and the lowest total yards for the #Chiefs with Mahomes as QB. #Eagles 24, #Chiefs 0
On the other side, Eagles quarterback went 11-of-15 for 123 yards with a touchdown and an interception. The Kansas City offense produced a total of 23 yards in the opening half, earned one total first down and averaged 1.2 yards per play.
While it was a rough start, Mahomes' track record still leaves room for optimism. He is a three-time Super Bowl champion and MVP and has made the Super Bowl in five of his seven seasons.
While it will be an uphill battle to complete a comeback, Mahomes and the Chiefs will hope for a major shift in momentum at the start of the third quarter.

Brown was again seen reading Jim Murphy's "Inner Excellence" after catching a touchdown pass from Jalen Hurts in the second quarter of Super Bowl LIX against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Murphy's book became a bestseller after Brown went viral for reading the self-improvement book on the sideline of the Eagles' Wild Card win over the Green Bay Packers.
