The Kansas City Chiefs just emerged victorious against the Philadelphia Eagles at Super Bowl LVII. Moreover, their victory was hard-fought, well-earned, and the product of an incredibly close game. For viewers who don't often watch football and hardcore fans alike, it was a nail-biting game. In fact, the two teams were neck and neck for the majority of the game, trading touchdowns and massive plays. However, the game-winning play didn't come without some controversy.
Moreover, this is yet another Super Bowl win for Patrick Mahomes' Kansas City Chiefs. Also, the quarterback is now the NFL MVP, becoming the first player to do so and win a Super Bowl since 1999. Given this is the most competitive night in the world for some, it's not surprising to see some conflict come up. Furthermore, a touchdown and two-point conversion from the Eagles tied the game with 5:15 left. Then, the Chiefs marched down the field with the ball, arriving at Philly's 15-yard line with two minutes to spare. As Kansas faced a third-and-8 that went incomplete, things looked doable for the Eagles.
However, a flag changed the entire game. According to officials, James Bradberry (defensive back for the Eagles) committed a holding on Chief player JuJu Smith-Schuster that prevented his running route. Moreover, the call meant five yards and fresh downs for the now-Super Bowl LVII victors. Of course, that was all Mahomes needed. After that call, Kansas killed the clock with three plays and set up a 27-yard field goal from Harrison Butker. In the move that sealed their win, his goal gave KC the 38-35 lead.
Meanwhile, the Eagles' final play was a throw from Jalen Hurts that didn't reach the end zone. So, Mahomes and company scored Super Bowl No. 3 for the Chiefs. Overall, it was an incredible game and an overall wonderful night for entertainment. Between Rihanna's halftime show and commercials galore, any pop culture fan had something to celebrate. However, what did you think about that game-winning call for the Chiefs and the game in general?
