The Philadelphia Eagles jumped all over the Kansas City Chiefs to start Super Bowl LIX.
After a dominant first half of football, the Eagles took a 24–0 lead into halftime as musician Kendrick Lamar’s opening act.
Philadelphia's performance, especially on the defensive side of the ball, produced some eye-popping stats that left fans wondering what happened to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Okay, you already knew that last one, but still. Come on.
A few more courtesy of social media.
Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce was held without a catch in the first half for the first time in his postseason career.
Mahomes hasn’t had a game like this before.
Seriously, like, never in his career.
The Chiefs will receive the opening kickoff of the second half. They’ll need to make it count.
