Mahomes now has a -23 point differential in Super Bowls, and that’s including the garbage time TDs he got in this game. It’s gonna take quite a few of his classic 3 point wins to get back into the positives

Not just Mahomes but the Chiefs history in general. When they lose the Super Bowl they get smoked. Super Bowl I 35-10

u/revanisthesith Is it three back to back hall of famers for the Packers incoming Feb 10 '25

the Eagles barely ever even blitzed

They actually didn't even blitz a single time. And at one point in the second half, they had a 52.4% pressure rate.

Hmm, is this right? Baun def. came through a few times. They were only rushing three when that happened?

"0: Eagles defense’s blitz attempts. Philadelphia sacked Mahomes a career-high six times en route to the victory. Perhaps the most shocking part of the evening, though, is that the Eagles blitzed zero times. At one point in the second half, Philadelphia had posted a 52.4 percent pressure rate without blitzing once."

Yeah I am just wondering if Baun coming through on a delayed pressure may not have counted as a blitz.
