The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs are preparing to face one another in Super Bowl LVII on Sunday - and for many, it is a matchup that defines the 2022 season.
For the first time in five years - since the Eagles defeated Tom Brady’s New England Patriots back in 2018, the two first seeds are set to clash in the championship finale. Since seeding was introduced in 1975, both top seeds have advanced to the Super Bowl just 13 times.
On top of that, two Black quarterbacks - Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes, whose ankle will be under the spotlight throughout the week, and the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts - will meet in the Super Bowl for the first time in NFL history. It’s fitting it will take place in the second week of the United States’ observance of Black History Month.
