The Philadelphia Eagles won Super Bowl LIX, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs 40–22 on February 9, 2025 at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. The game concluded the 2024 NFL season even though it was played in calendar year 2025, which is why searches using the season and year can appear to conflict. [1][2]
Philadelphia led 7–0 after the first quarter and 24–0 at halftime. The lead reached 34–0 before Kansas City scored. The Chiefs produced 22 points later in the game, but the deficit was already too large. The final quarter-by-quarter score was Philadelphia 7, 17, 10 and 6; Kansas City 0, 0, 6 and 16. [2]
The Eagles’ defense forced three turnovers, recorded five sacks and allowed only 23 Kansas City yards in the first half, according to the NFL record book. Rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean returned a Patrick Mahomes interception 38 yards for a touchdown on his birthday, turning a 10–0 advantage into a three-score lead. [2]
Quarterback Jalen Hurts was named the game’s Most Valuable Player. He completed 17 of 22 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns. He also led Philadelphia with 72 rushing yards and scored on a one-yard run, producing three total touchdowns while avoiding a turnover after an early interception was erased by penalty. [1][2]
Hurts’ 72 rushing yards set a Super Bowl record for a quarterback, surpassing the mark he had set in Philadelphia’s loss to Kansas City two years earlier. His performance combined efficient passing with designed runs and scrambles, but the MVP result also came within a game shaped by Philadelphia’s defensive pressure and short fields. [1]
The victory gave the Eagles their second Super Bowl championship after the franchise’s win in Super Bowl LII. It also stopped Kansas City from becoming the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowls. A three-peat would have referred to championships across three seasons, not three games in one calendar year. [2]
The cleanest way to identify the event is “Super Bowl LIX,” but “2025 Super Bowl” refers to the same game. Official NFL records supply the score, venue, attendance and player statistics. Later summaries should preserve the 40–22 final rather than using the largest in-game lead as the final margin. [1][2]
