Super Bowl LIX is set to be a thrilling rematch between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, February 9, 2025, at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. The Chiefs, led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, are aiming for an unprecedented third consecutive Super Bowl victory, while the Eagles, under quarterback Jalen Hurts, seek redemption after their narrow 38-35 loss to the Chiefs two years ago.
The Kansas City Chiefs concluded the regular season with a 15-2 record, securing the AFC's top seed. Their playoff journey included victories over the Houston Texans and a nail-biting win against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship, ending 32-29.
The Philadelphia Eagles finished the season at 14-3, earning the NFC's second seed. Their path to the Super Bowl featured decisive wins against the Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams, and a commanding 55-23 triumph over the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship.
For the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes remains a pivotal figure, known for his exceptional playoff performances. His connection with tight end Travis Kelce and the resurgence of running back Kareem Hunt, who rejoined the team mid-season, will be crucial.
The Eagles' offense is powered by running back Saquon Barkley, who has had a historic season, becoming the ninth player in NFL history to rush for over 2,000 yards. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has also been instrumental, setting a record for postseason rushing touchdowns by a quarterback.
As of February 7 at 6pm CT, the practice reports and statuses are below, stay tuned for more updates this week:
Doubtful:
WR Skyy Moore (abdomen)
Out:
WR Britain Covey (neck)
Questionable:
TE C.J. Uzomah (abdomen)
OL Nick Gates (groin)
DE Brandon Graham (elbow)
Notably, DE Brandon Graham practiced fully on Friday, indicating a positive trend toward his availability
Quarterback Showdown – Patrick Mahomes' playoff experience and clutch performances will be tested against Jalen Hurts' efficient passing and dual-threat ability.
Eagles’ Rushing Attack vs. Chiefs’ Run Defense – Saquon Barkley’s historic season meets a Chiefs defense that hasn’t allowed a 100-yard rusher in the postseason under Steve Spagnuolo.
Chiefs’ Passing Game vs. Eagles’ Secondary – The Chiefs’ air attack, strengthened by DeAndre Hopkins and rookie Xavier Worthy, faces a top-tier Eagles secondary featuring standout rookies and veterans.
Trench Warfare – The Eagles’ dominant offensive line must neutralize the Chiefs’ defensive pressure, while the Chiefs’ line must protect Mahomes from the Eagles’ relentless pass rush.
