Super Bowl LVII between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles was one for the ages, a thrilling back-and-forth between the NFL’s top two teams.
A fourth quarter holding call on Eagles cornerback James Bradberry on Chiefs wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster turned out to be the difference maker, as the penalty set up Kansas City kicker Harrison Butker for a game-winning 27-yard field goal. The Chiefs’ 38-35 win covered the spread — Kansas City was a 1.5-point underdog — and easily went over the game’s 51.5-point total.
Super Bowl LVII was a doozy and everything the NFL hoped for. The refs largely avoided any overly controversial calls, and the Chiefs and Eagles provided nonstop excitement from whistle to whistle.
