Some fans praised the Eagles for their performance. One fan wrote, “They outplayed KC and deserve the win.” Others weren’t as kind to the Chiefs, with one saying, “The Chiefs never show up, probably one of the worst Super Bowls in years.” Another fan simply stated, “KC played poorly.”

There was also some criticism of the officiating, with one fan commenting, “KC without the refs are completely talentless lol.” Another person believed the Chiefs didn’t deserve to be in the Super Bowl, writing, “This game just proved that the Chiefs shouldn’t even have been in the Superbowl. They got a Mickey Mouse run off of last-second soft calls and real NFL fans saw this coming a mile away.”

The Chiefs had made it to the Super Bowl after a tough 32-29 win over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship on January 27. Patrick Mahomes’ 245 yards passing and a touchdown, along with two rushing scores, helped them secure the win. Their defense also made key stops to secure the victory. However, in the Super Bowl, the Eagles outperformed them, ending their hopes for a third straight championship.

After the win, Jalen Hurts, quarterback for the Eagles, gave credit to his teammates, saying, “Couldn’t be here without my teammates.” He stressed that their collective effort was key to their victory.

On the other side, after the Chiefs’ loss, Mahomes was asked about the future of tight end Travis Kelce. He spoke highly of Kelce, saying that Kelce would decide on his future career. Mahomes praised Kelce for his passion and contributions to both the team and the NFL. He also mentioned that Kelce would need time to spend with his family before making a decision about his future in football. If Kelce decides to return, Mahomes made it clear that he would be welcomed back to the team.
