Defeating the chief of Kansas City is really difficult.
Patrick Mahomes and Company have won one victory after winning three consecutive Super Bowls, but this has never been done.
The run began with the first game of the 2022 regular season, and the Chiefs have won 49 games and lost 11 games.
One of these losses, the latest loss, was a 38-0 loss in Denver in the regular season finale four weeks ago. AFC.
However, the Philadelphia Eagles, the team standing between the chief and history of Super Bowl LIX on Sunday at Caesar Superdome, is being built to beat two-time champions.
Other teams will not only get involved in the game against the Chief, but they will even go deeper into the fourth quarter of the game. However, the champions have won 17 consecutive NFL records, including 12 this season.
The main lesson is one of the keys to breaking the Chief. Not giving Mahome the ball to the ball late in the game requires only one score to beat you. He is looking for his own personal three-peat as the Super Bowl MVP, and is looking for a fourth Pete overall after winning the award for the first time five years ago.
Mahomes rebounded Kansas City from a 3-point deficit in both the fourth quarter and Overtime against the 49ers at last year’s Super Bowl。
Two years ago, Mahomes, who faced the Eagles, took his team team for 62 yards in 14 seconds and scored a field goal with 11 seconds remaining, bringing Kansas City a 38-35 victory.
And Mahomes has a long list of other examples of last-minute scoring drives, creating an unlikely victory.
But beating Mahome and the Chiefs isn’t as easy as building a lead over a touchdown in the second half of the game. Mahomes oversees a drive that produced three touchdowns at the final 6:13 of the game, and oversees the drive that turned the 49ers into a 31-20 victory five years ago, making his first super I won the Bowl MVP.
The only blueprint to beat Mahome and the Chief, especially in the Super Bowl, you need to cover 60 minutes (or more).
Philadelphia has enough history to give confidence in Kansas City, but San Francisco probably had a similar sense of its rematch last year.
What’s important is not only protecting Mahome, but also limiting him. It’s about posting extraordinary complementary football where attacks and special teams reduce time, and therefore the number of plays, as well as the starting field positions that Mahomes must work with.
Of course, the Chief is more than just a mahome and an attack. Philadelphia also has to compete with very good defense teams and special teams.
With the addition of Saquon Barkley, the Eagles gave the NFL the most explosive running game. Barkley averages more than five yards per carry, allowing him to move the ball consistently to the NFC champions, run the clock and keep Mahome on the sidelines.
But just moving systematically and running out of watches isn’t enough to defeat the chief. In the Super Bowl two years ago, Philadelphia surpassed the Chiefs 417-340 and owned the ball for over 36 minutes.
And they lost.
The bottom line is that Mahomes do more with less on a daily basis. He can make the ball less plays, fewer yards, and generate at least one point.
Philadelphia can use Berklee to run the ball for pain, control the ball and play from the front. Then reduce penalties and win the sales battle.
That leads to victory.
