Super Bowl LIX was played last night, and it was pretty much decided by halftime. The matchup between the No. 1 seed Kansas City Chiefs and the No. 2 seed Philadelphia Eagles was far more lopsided than one would think as it was 24-0 at half and 34-6 through three quarters with the Eagles having their way with the two-time defending champs. It was indeed the Eagles who emerged victorious and won their second Super Bowl, 40-22. Jalen Hurts was named the Super Bowl MVP.
