Two years later, the Chiefs and Eagles are getting together in the Super Bowl again.

Last time, the Eagles entered the game as 1.5-point favorites for the game played in Arizona. This time, the DraftKings opening line has the Chiefs as 1.5-point favorites in Super Bowl LIX, to be played in New Orleans.

In Super Bowl LVII, the Eagles seemed to have the better overall team. As we saw at the time, that doesn’t matter when the Chiefs have quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

We’ll find out whether the Chiefs can do it again, giving them the first-ever Super Bowl three-peat — with the bookends coming against Philadelphia.

The Kansas City Chiefs are in historic territory.

The Chiefs, thanks to a wild 32-29 win over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC championship game on Sunday night, clinched their spot in Super Bowl LIX. They’ll take on the Philadelphia Eagles — who rolled over the Washington Commanders in the NFC championship game in New Orleans.

If the Chiefs can lift the Lombardi Trophy, it’ll mark their third straight Super Bowl win. No team in NFL history has ever won three straight. Very few have even had the opportunity to do so. Kansas City is the first team to actually reach the Super Bowl after winning the game two straight times.

Before the Chiefs, only eight other teams in NFL history won back-to-back Super Bowls. The New England Patriots were the most recent team to do so in the 2005 season. Of those eight teams, only three of them made it to their conference championship game the following season to have a chance at making it to a third. They all lost.

The three-peat is so rare in American professional sports in general. The last major men’s professional team to win three straight championships was the Los Angeles Lakers. They won three consecutive NBA titles from 2000-02.

The Kansas City Chiefs clinched their fifth Super Bowl appearance in six years, defeating the Buffalo Bills, 32-29, in the AFC Championship Game at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw for 218 yards and one touchdown on 16 of 24 passing, while also recording 45 yards and two touchdowns on nine rushing attempts, including a 10-yard run in the fourth quarter. Mahomes connected with wide receiver Xavier Worthy — who finished Sunday’s game with a team-best six receptions for 85 yards — on an 11-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker made a 35-yard field goal with 3:33 remaining in the fourth quarter to break a 32-29 tie.

Kansas City stopped Buffalo on its final offensive possession by forcing a turnover on downs with 2:00 remaining in the game, forcing the Bills to use all three of their timeouts on the final drive. The Chiefs will face the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles in a rematch of Super Bowl LVII, which took place two years prior.

The Chiefs look to become the first franchise in NFL history to win three consecutive Super Bowls, having already won three in the last five years.

Pete Alonso may wind up re-signing with the New York Mets, but it does not sound likely to happen any time soon.

Alonso and the Mets are currently far apart in talks, with a sizable gap between what the first baseman wants and what the Mets are offering right now.

The two sides are far enough apart that the Mets have considered other options at first base. One move could involve moving third baseman Mark Vientos to first and letting younger players like Brett Baty try to lock down the third base job.

The Mets, like many teams, are not prioritizing a need for power as much, which is hurting Alonso’s market. Alonso is also coming off a down year by his standards, as he hit .240 with 34 home runs in 2024. Setting aside the shortened 2020 season, that is the lowest single-season home run total of his career. 

The first baseman remains a fan favorite, however, and bringing him back would be a popular move. Whether it is possible might depend on whether the two sides are willing to compromise.
