Super Bowl LX podcast Rich Perez:

#1 How will Seattle’s strong defense impact New England’s offensive game plan? With the Seahawks finishing with one of the top defenses and limiting opposing offenses effectively this season, how might that affect the Patriots’ ability to score?

#2 Can the Patriots’ pass rush force turnovers from Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold? New England’s pressure rate has been among the best in the playoffs — will that translate into forcing mistakes in the Super Bowl?

#3 Which player(s) are most likely to make game-changing plays — and why? For example, how might Jaxon Smith-Njigba or Kenneth Walker III’s big-play ability influence the outcome?

#4 Will weather conditions at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara affect how the game is played? Forecasts indicate a chance of rain early in the game — what impact could that have on ball security and running vs. passing strategies?

#5 What historical significance could this game have for each franchise? If the Patriots win, it would be their seventh Super Bowl title and first without Tom Brady — whereas a Seahawks win would be just their second in franchise history.

Super Bowl LX podcast David Zizmor:

#1 In press conference with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that adding an 18th game to the regular season is not a given and that the Players Assocation is opposed to adding an 18th game because fatigue and exhaustion from playing 17 games is enough.

#2 San Francisco running back Christian McCaffery said that the Pro Bowl that is scheduled with the Super Bowl would be good for the NFL. Saying that “flag football is growing internationally in so many ways to bring sport to life a little bit and watch some guys playing in the NFL do it.” The Pro Bowl was played on Tuesday this week inside the Moscone Center as opposed to traditionally being played in a stadium.

#3 Former Tampa Bay Buccaneer defensive tackle Warren Sapp said during Super Bowl week that there should be no tackle football for kids until their at least 14. Sapp is suffering from memory loss at age 53 and he is concerrned that CTE will be an issue for youth tackle football. Sapp said that he doesn’t watch eight to nine years old hit each other. Ironically the CTE Summit is being held in San Francisco simualtaniously with Super Bowl week in the City.

#4 Quick shout out to Kippu Sushi and Roll located at 1707 Buchcanan Street in San Francisco’s Japantown who sponsered this week’s Sportstalk remote David talk about your experience there this week.

Super Bowl LX podcast Rich Perez:

#1 Will the Seattle Seahawks be able to overcome the Patriots and win their second Super Bowl title? Consider Seattle’s defensive dominance this season under coach Mike Macdonald and their Super Bowl XLVIII history.

#2 Can the Patriots win a record-seventh Super Bowl and establish a new dynasty under head coach Mike Vrabel? This is New England’s first Super Bowl since the Brady–Belichick era.

#3 Which quarterback will have the bigger impact on the outcome — Seahawks’ Sam Darnold or Patriots’ Drake Maye? Both led their teams to 14-3 records and have storylines worth debating.

#4 How important will the rematch factor be in Super Bowl LX, given that this matchup echoes Super Bowl XLIX (2015)? Does the memory of that Patriots win influence how fans and analysts view this game?

#5 Could the halftime show featuring Bad Bunny influence the broader cultural impact of Super Bowl LX beyond the game itself? (Hint: this year’s entertainment lineup is a major talking point for global audiences.)

Sunday, February 9, 2025

Kansas City’s hopes for a third consecutive Super Bowl victory were all but dashed by a powerful first half by Philadelphia Sunday at the Superdome in New Orleans, as the NFC champion Eagles routed the AFC champion Chiefs 40-22 in SB LIX.

Jalen Hurts was selected as the game’s most valuable player. Hurts was 17 of 22 passing for 221 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for 72 yards on 11 carries – a Super Bowl record for a quarterback – and a rushing touchdown.

Hurts became the first quarterback to win a Super Bowl after losing one since Bob Griese won with Miami in 1972. DeVonta Smith was his primary target with four catches for 69 yards and a touchdown.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 21 of 32 passes for 257 yards and two touchdowns, but was also sacked six times. Mahomes was also Kansas City’s leading rusher with 25 yards on four attempts. Xavier Worthy caught eight passes for 157 yards and two touchdowns.

This was Philadelphia’s second Super Bowl victory, the first was in 2017. The Eagles lost in 2022, 2004 and 1980. In the pre-Super Bowl era, the Eagles won NFL titles in 1948, 1949 and 1960. The Chiefs won AFL championships in 1962 (as Dallas Texans), 1966 and 1969. Kansas City won Super Bowls in 1969, 2019, 2022 and 2023, losing in 2020.

The Eagles built a 24-0 halftime lead on Hurts’ 1-yard TD run, Jake Elliott’s 48-yard field goal, Cooper DeJean’s 38-yard pick-six, and A.J. Brown’s 12-yard scoring pass from Hurts.

Philadelphia extended its lead in the third quarter to 34-0 on Elliott’s 29-yard field goal, and a 48-yard scoring strike from Hurts to Smith. Kansas City got on the board with 34 seconds left in the quarter on Worthy’s 24-yard TD pas from Mahomes.

The Eagles used two ore Elliott field goals of 43 and 50 yards to build a 40-6 lead. Kansas City found the end zone twice in the last three minutes on touchdown passes from Mahomes to DeAndre Hopkins and Worthy.

Records set in Super Bowl LIX besides Hurts’ QB rushing: Elliott kicked four field goals and four extra points for 16 kicking points, his four field goals ties a record held by three others.

The average ticket to watch in person was $7,300 (fees included) according to Stubhub. Ticketmaster had seats listed for $6,600.

Kendrick Lamar provided the halftime entertainment with a guest appearance by dancer and tennis champion Serena Williams. Jon Batiste sang the National Anthem and Lauren Diagle performed “America The Beautiful.”

Donald Trump became the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl. He predicted a Chiefs victory.

Headline Sports podcast with Jerry Feitelberg:

#1 Two of the original founders of the Art Rooney Rule and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell agree that league diversity is improving but at a slow pace. They say that there is more work to be done. The area that they were referring to is head coaches and offensive coordinators.

#2 Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham who was big key in Super Bowl LII will have a shot at stardom and the Kansas City Chiefs again in Super Bowl LIX. Graham although he hasn’t announced it yet this might be his last game in pro football.

#3 Longtime NFL player and coach Dick Jauron who coached the Chicago Bears to the post season and was the AP Coach of the Year has died Saturday 74. Jauron was briefly an assistant coach for the Chiefs under Andy Reid.

#4 A former assistant to the owner of the Arizona Cardinals Michael Bidwill is suing Bidwell and the Cardinals for allegations that Bidwell “unmercifully harassed” her. The assistant said that Bidwell was trying to get her to quit. Brittany Neuheisel was an assistant for Bidwell from 2019 until last week. The charges in the lawsuit read, constructive discharge, wrongful discharge, discrimination and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

#5 In what critics call one of the biggest surprises on Thursday night at the NFL Honors ceremony in New Orleans Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was voted AP Most Valuable Player Award. After 21 seasons it was the first time a player won the MVP without being picked for the first team All Pro.
