The NFL Super Bowl, the biggest sporting event on the planet is finally here and we've got you covered with all the information you need for the big day.
Mailata’s performance on Monday will go a long way to determining the outcome of the contest. A win on Monday would give him his second victory at the pinnacle. Siposs wasn’t going to be denied and was activated off the IR list, making him eligible to be picked to play on Monday in Arizona. A late season injury saw him placed on the injured reserve list and left him locked in a race against the clock to prove his fitness to take part in the NFL’s biggest game. If the Chiefs want to get a hand on Hurts and slow him down, they’re going to have to go through left tackle Jordan Mailata.

Will Patrick Mahomes capture his second NFL title with Kansas City? Or will Philly's all-round excellence prevail in the Arizona desert?
Philadelphia have the NFL’s best offensive line and the best defensive line. That may well be the difference in a Super Bowl that should go down to the wire. Front to back, they have the best defense in the league. But the Chiefs have the best quarterback in the game, playing at the apex of his powers. The Chiefs hit the jackpot with this group of rookies and particularly with McDuffie, who can play on the outside and in the slot. In a contest between the two best teams in the league, you expect something close to a perfectly executed game. To win, the Chiefs will need to steal a possession. Mahomes, of course, but to be a little less obvious I think Jones could have a huge role on the other side of the ball. (The Eagles have gone for it on fourth down a whopping 35 times this season.) But the Super Bowl is a unique beast and many more experienced coaches have crumbled under the spotlight. Of the seven quarterbacks to start a Super Bowl before their 25th birthday, only two have finished with a passer rating above 66: Tom Brady at the end of the 2001 season (86.2) and Mahomes at the end of 2019 (78.1). Stylistically and schematically, the Chiefs don’t have the pieces to slow down the Eagles’ overwhelming offense.

An explosive second half helped the Kansas City Chiefs to their second Super Bowl title in four years in a thrilling contest in Arizona.
That set the stage for Mahomes: tied at 35-35 in the Super Bowl with five minutes left and 75 yards from the end zone. But clinging to their last hope, Philadelphia fired back with an eight-play, 75-yard scoring drive highlighted by a 49-yard reception by Smith on the penultimate play then another Hurts touchdown run – his third on the night. The Eagles marched methodically downfield from there, going 60 yards on 17 plays – including a highlight-reed catch by Dallas Goedert along the Philadelphia sideline – before settling for another Elliot field goal and a 27-21 lead in the dying minutes of the third quarter. It marked the first time in a quarter-century that a team received the opening kickoff in the Super Bowl and drove it down the field for a touchdown. For the first time in Philadelphia’s marauding postseason run, in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl, they found themselves behind. Then Toney returned Aaron Siposs’s second punt of the game around the field and down the Philadelphia sideline, a 65-yard return that placed the Chiefs within five yards of the end zone: the longest punt return in Super Bowl history. Then, on the first play of the second quarter, Hurts took his shot downfield and connected on a 45-yard touchdown to Brown. The Eagles would score once more before half-time through a 35-yard field goal from Jake Elliot, opening a 10-point lead in a half where they controlled the ball for nearly 22 minutes. Of the seven quarterbacks who had started a Super Bowl before their 25th birthday entering Sunday’s game, only two had played even remotely well: Tom Brady in the 2001 season and Mahomes in 2018. The Eagles soon got the ball back after a Chiefs drive stalled. It was the sort of scripted opening drive that Chiefs coach Andy Reid has made his hallmark since entering the head coaching ranks with, of all teams, Philadelphia back in 1999. The Chiefs won the toss and deferred, as they have all but once all year, placing the ball in Hurts’ hands to start.

that’s how teams stay in the game. How about that one?” ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky laughed. We’ve got the two best teams that are in it.” “In the closest of contested games... that’s the difference,” commentator Louis Riddick said. Their fourth possession ended in Butker’s winning field goal. you can’t factor in how they’ll impact but when they happen... “When they happen (the special teams plays), that’s how statistics can be very misleading. That’s how a team can stay in the game although you sit there thinking the other team’s dominating on the statistical sheet - they should be running away with this thing. “Hurts was going to try and run for it and lost the football. “That’s a killer for the Eagles,” Levy said. The call, which saw Hurts with his head in his hands on the sidelines, was described by Riddick as “the ball game”.

But his second fell short and relatively straight, allowing Kadarius Toney to dart off his left foot around a gang of tacklers and set off for a Super Bowl record 60-metre return that set up the go-ahead touchdown. And the pair looked set to make history as the Eagles dominated the first half in Arizona, the 203cm and 166kg Mailata paving the way for Hurts to make some history of his own. Left tackle Mailata and punter Siposs were the third and fourth Australians to feature in the NFL decider, seeking to become the first to play in a win after Ben Graham (Arizona, 2009) and Mitch Wishnowsky (San Francisco, 2020) both played on losing Super Bowl teams.

What a time to produce it for the Eagles. Nick Bolton was the first to the ball and he scooped it up and enjoyed an unchecked run into the end zone. Jordan Mailata does his job and opens up a big running lane for Hurts who has an easy run into the end zone. After a good run, he took another risk and it almost resulted in an interception.
