Eagles’ Super Bowl LIX Victory: Top 5 Unforgettable Highlights

Philadelphia will have a parade down Broad Street, and this victory was never in doubt. Let’s take a look at 5 Unforgettable Highlights from the Eagles’ Super Bowl LIX Victory.

The Eagles went to New Orleans and dominated a dynasty, making the mighty Chiefs look outclassed. It was an old-fashioned butt-whooping, and the Lombardi Trophy is coming back to Philly.

All week, the talk in Philly was about how the Eagles were the better team. We knew it. We saw how well this team played all season and knew how special they were. Many stopped short of predicting a blowout out of respect for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, but Philly should have been even more confident. This team just stomped all over the modern-day dynasty.

At halftime, it was 24-0. Cooper DeJean had more yards than the Chiefs’ entire offense going into the locker room. The Eagles had more sacks than the Chiefs had first downs. The usually poised Mahomes looked more shaken than ever, throwing two interceptions in the first half, including a pick-six by the birthday boy, Cooper DeJean.

Cherish this, Eagles fans. This team was special. It took a long time for people outside this city to realize it. Some never did. But we knew.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no it is Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Zack Baun. He capitalized on another Mahomes interception during the second quarter in Super Bowl LIX at Caesars Superdome. Baun played for the Saints for 4 seasons until coming to the Eagles this season. He signed a one-year deal and switched positions to turn into an All-Pro linebacker with the Eagles. He bet on himself, and it paid off. (Photo by Kirby Lee-Imagn Images)

This kid is in his rookie year and it was one of the biggest plays of the game. DeJean also became the first player in Super Bowl history to intercept a pass or score a touchdown on his birthday.
