Just posted a full all-22 offense rewatch from the SB in the Patreon with Jonny. A $ 5-a-month membership gets you access (free 1-week trial to check it out!) I'll also be dropping a full pass game review (every dropback) and we will be recording a full all-22 defense rewatch later this week too.
Milton Williams is going to make a lot of money this offseason
Avonte Maddox making a PBU in the Super Bowl wasn't on my bingo card. Good for him coming up big in a big spot. He is a player that I thought very highly of for a long time. It's a shame that injuries had such a negative impact on his career.
Brandon Graham just destroys the RT here. I hate that he got held and didn't get to record a sack. Jalyx Hunt dominates the LT too.
Come for the Josh Sweat sack. Stay for Jalyx Hunt almost punching an official after the play.
The post route from the top of the screen gets open, but it is far too late, even with chip block help from the RB. Jalyx Hunt does a really nice job rushing against Joe Thuney and disrupting the pocket.
Vaunted pass rush specialist Jordan Davis!
Look how good the coverage is behind. You could maybe fit this into Juju for a 4 yard gain, but that's still a tight window. Coverage was unbelievable.
It's better to be lucky than good. It's best to be both lucky and good. The Eagles have a rare secondary coverage bust here but DeAndre Hopkins drops the pass.
It's always easy for Jalen Carter to rush the passer, but alarm bells go off when it is that easy.
Excellent play by Baun to read Mahomes eyes and make the INT. I also like that he just stays down. Too much traffic to go anywhere, so he just stays down and protects the ball.
It doesn't help that Joe Thuney is in his lap already. Moving Thuney from LG (where he was the best player at his position in the league) to LT (where he was a liability) was a terrible coaching decision.
Quinyon Mitchel is lined up against the fastest WR in combine history and is just sitting on underneath routes with 7 yards of cushion. He isn't even remotely worried about getting beat deep. Mahomes goes to the backside and makes an awful throw over the middle that Zack Baun intercepts.
The Eagles just played their defense and executed it perfectly. They play 5 over 3 to the top of the screen and have no problem leaving Quinyon Mitchell 1 on 1 with Travis Kelce or Oren Burks 1 on 1 with a RB. Nothing is close to open at the top of the drop, and the TE stunt wins off the left side.
Oh my word Nolan Smith. You basically can't run a puller at him at this point. Moro Ojomo does a great job of shedding the LG and getting in on the play in the backfield too.
What a play by Cooper DeJean. A very poor stunt attempt (with a MAJOR hold on Jalen Carter) lets Mahomes escape the pocket but DeJean reads Mahomes' eyes, reels in his first career INT (on his birthday no less), and returns it 38 yards for a TD.
3 years ago Jalyx Hunt was playing safety at Cornell. Now, as a rookie, he is putting one of the best OGs in the league on skates in the Super Bowl.
Josh Sweat (the 19th best player on the defense in this game according to PFF) blowing by Travis Kelce for the sack of Patrick Mahomes. Even if this isn't such a quick pressure, where is Mahomes going to go with this? Everybody is locked up. I love Reed Blankenship turning to find the crosser
Look at the pre-snap communication here from the defense off of the motion. Very impressive stuff. This has been such a well-coached unit all season. You would never guess there are 2 rookie starters in the secondary (and a backup LB)
The Eagles drop 8 again and they still get pressure on Mahomes while having 6 guys in coverage over the 3 routes on the play side.
The Chiefs try to throw a screen away from Cooped DeJean, but it still doesn't work with Quinyon Mitchell flying downhill to drop the hammer
I love everything about this 3rd down rep. Blankenship walks out over the RB but then Baun is responsible for him post snap. DeJean gets a great press on Kelce while Blankenship flies downhill to help inside. Isaiah Rodgers does a fantastic job navigating through traffic to cover the wheel route.
The Eagles drop 8 on 2nd down with Josh Sweat sinking inside Travis Kelce. He doesn't do a very job, but I love the idea. This is one of the things I wanted to see the Eagles do against Kelce. The throw is behind and Kelce drops it.
If the plan was fake a screen on the 1st play so you can throw a screen on the 2nd play it's safe to say that plan failed miserably.
The Chiefs go 4x1 with Xavier Worthy on Orbit motion on the first play of the game. Cooper DeJean jumps the potential screen and Mahomes throws it right behind him. Really nice counter to expectations.
🏈Darius Slay and Quinyon Mitchell combined to allow 27 passing yards
🏈Zack Baun led the team in defensive stops with 3. Jalyx Hunt, Milton Williams, Josh Sweat, and CJGJ each had 2.
🏈Jalyx Hunt notched 5 pressures and a sack on 20 pass rush attempts. That's not bad for a guy who was playing safety a couple of seasons ago at Houston Christian University and was seen as a project pick this year.
🏈The Eagles held the Chiefs to only 82 yards after the catch
The Eagles' PFF Grades from Super Bowl LIX
🏈Josh Sweat having 3 sacks, 7 pressures, and 2 defensive stops and somehow being the 19th highest-graded player on the defense should put to bed any argument about the validity of PFF numeric grades (although I still like their charting)
🏈Saquon Barkley only averaged 2.3 yards per carry, but he forced 6 missed tackles and averaged 1.48 yards after contact per attempt.
🏈Lane Johnson, Jordan Mailata, and Landon Dickerson each allowed 2 pressures while Saquon Barkley, Tyler Steen, Mekhi Becton, and Cam Jurgens each allowed 1
The Eagles' offensive PFF Grades from Super Bowl LIX
🏈 Jalen Hurts was 14-17 for 204 yards and 2 TDs with 4 big-time throws and an 88.2% adjusted completion percentage when throwing from a clean pocket.
Kenny Pickett has now thrown more passes in Conference Championships and Super Bowls combined (1) than Dak Prescott has (0)
