Chris Jones and the Chiefs’ defense overcome adversity in Super Bowl win

The Kansas City Chiefs are once again Super Bowl champions after a 38-35 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night.

All the talk leading up to Sunday’s game revolved around each team’s high-powered offense — and rightfully so. The teams put on a show, combining for 73 total points. That was third-most in Super Bowl history.

The Eagles’ offense started the game with two consecutive scoring drives — including one that ended with a 45-yard bomb from Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts to wideout A.J. Brown. But the Kansas City defense then came through with one of the biggest plays of the night: a second-quarter scoop-and-score fumble recovery by linebacker Nick Bolton that tied the game at 14-14.
