🏈 🏆 Super Bowl LIX: Eagles win Super Bowl LIX 40-22 over KC Chiefs (Hurts, MVP)

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

A couple of notes on the game...

-Kansas City is favored by 1.

-The American Gaming Association estimates that legal American sportsbooks could take an estimated $1.39 billion in bets on the game.

-The National Chicken Council estimates that Americans will eat 1.42 billion chicken wings during the game. I'll be eating about 15 or so myself.

-A trivial note that gets repeated every year within the Bama Nation, and hopefully ends tomorrow night... No former Alabama player has ever scored a point in a Super Bowl game (thrown passes only count for the receiver).


Former Bama players on the rosters...

Philadelphia Eagles
QB Jalen Hurts
WR DeVonta Smith
OL Landon Dickerson
OL Tyler Steen
DT Byron Young
CB Eli Ricks

Same here. But there's a part of me that enjoys 95% of America crying about Kansas City winning all the time, so if it happens again, I'm ok with it.

Hoping we see a Bama WR with a TD. I believe Jalen will get his.

It's all about Bama and here's one I'll watch; for damn sure.

Went back as added the Bama guys to the original post... meant to do that to begin with and forgot.

Jalen Hurts two touchdowns (+550)

Before the game start someone will talk about TS. Philly was my second team I like.
Watching the game that still up in the air.
DeVonta Smith touchdown (+230)
Jalen Hurts two touchdowns (+550)
I will go with Philly to win!

Roll Eagles Roll.

I am pulling for Bama Eagles.

 

[alabama mike]

Not watching.

 

[mando]

Not watching.

I quick watching a lot of professional sports when all the political agenda mess starting infultrating pro sports. May have to watch this one though with the Bama connections.

 

[64Tide]

Pulling for Eagles because of Bama players and my humongous dislike for Taylor twit.

 

[bamanc50]

I’m watching and pulling for the Eagles because of all the Bama connections. What’s going to be more interesting is what the refs will do to help the Chiefs if the Eagles are winning late in the game.

Eagles

Got the Eagles and I need two Hurts TDs

Hope you get it. If it was my money, he'd score his 2nd TD with about a minute to play on a 4th down sneak and it would get reviewed and overturned.

I'm already prepping for a Colt McCoy-esque walkout on the second play of the game

They did remove the "end racism" message in the endzone ....
My problem wasn't messaging...it was ...in sports

Sports is a chance to remove one from everyday life. Not for pushing politics
Hope the President...n first lady enjoy game

Playing the Chiefs that is a very possible reality.

Would be lying if I said part of me wasn't hoping for a very controversial finish. In fact, if KC wins, I hope that's how it happens... something like they score in the final minute with 14 players on the field or something. I would hate it for the Bama guys, but I'd enjoy the meltdowns on social media, the scrutiny it would put on the NFL, and if I'm being honest... the dagger to the hearts of what is a very shitty fan base in Philly.
