Few could have expected Super Bowl LIX to unfold the way it did.
The Philadelphia Eagles thoroughly dismantled the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs 40-22.
At one point, they led 34-0 and had more points at halftime than the Chiefs had yards.
The Chiefs’ three-peat was starting to look inevitable as week after week, this team pulled improbable victories out of the jaws of defeat, but the luck ran out on Sunday in a devastating way in a game that caused Dan Orlovsky to lay into Chiefs head coach Andy Reid.
On Monday morning’s episode of Get Up, Orlovsky called this performance “The worst performance I’ve ever seen from an Andy Reid-coached football team.”

Orlovsky compared this defense to the Seattle Seahawks’ Legion of Boom defense that brought them a Super Bowl a few years ago, praising the Eagles for being so dominant without doing anything too complicated on that side of the ball.
While Mahomes threw three touchdowns to make the final score look better than it should have, this will likely go down as a legacy-altering game for him and his Chiefs, who soaked in two full weeks of the media eagerly claiming that Mahomes and Reid were the new GOATS at quarterback and head coach.
Philly dominated so violently that the cameras only showed Taylor Swift one time, and football fans everywhere now have to spend a little time digesting what they just saw before the depressing reality that we won’t have football for the next seven months sets in.
