In a commanding performance at Super Bowl LIX, the Philadelphia Eagles secured their second Lombardi Trophy with a decisive 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, halting the Chiefs’ pursuit of a third consecutive championship. Following the game, key figures from the Eagles attributed their success to their faith.
Head Coach Nick Sirianni, in a post-game interview, expressed his gratitude, stating, “God’s blessed us very much. He gave us all the talents to be able to get here, so first and foremost, thanks to Him.” During the trophy presentation, he reiterated, “All glory to God.”

Quarterback Jalen Hurts, who was named Super Bowl MVP after amassing 221 passing yards and three total touchdowns, echoed similar sentiments. Speaking with Erin Andrews, Hurts remarked, “God is good. He’s greater than all the highs and the lows.”
The Eagles’ defense played a pivotal role in the victory, limiting the Chiefs to just 34 total yards in the first half. They consistently pressured quarterback Patrick Mahomes, resulting in two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown by rookie Cooper DeJean. The defense also recorded six sacks, preventing the Chiefs from establishing any offensive momentum.
This triumph marks the Eagles’ second Super Bowl win, with their first occurring seven years prior in a victory over the New England Patriots.
The team’s public acknowledgments of faith underscore the personal beliefs of its leaders and their gratitude in moments of significant achievement.
