How did the Chiefs and Eagles get to Super Bowl LIX?

The Kansas City Chiefs enjoyed a stellar regular-season campaign, breezing through the AFC with a 15-2 record. That earned them a pass and a much-needed breather ahead of their postseason journey.

Their first playoff game was against the Houston Texans at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs were impressive in the game, winning by a 23-14 score. Next up was an AFC Championship game against the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs earned a close 32-29 win against the Bills to punch in their ticket to Super Bowl LIX.

The Philadelphia Eagles had an impressive regular-season campaign. Nick Sirianni's side amassed a 14-3 record and played some of the most dominant offensive football in the league.

The Eagles recorded comfortable wins over the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round, the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round and the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game. Next is a revenge game against Patrick Mahomes and Co. at Super Bowl LIX.
