The Philadelphia Eagles are looking to avenge theirSuper BowlLVII loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid seek to be the first NFL team to ever three-peat.
One annoying thing we learned is that you cant pause a Madden simulation.
This means there were no breaks and no pausing to look at stats as the game progressed.
A request for next years Madden, perhaps.
One of the strange things about Philadelphia in Madden 25 is how un-Eagles-like the play calling can be.
There is no real Tush Push play.
Kansas City immediately capitalized with a short drive that ended in a Kareem Hunt touchdown.
They use that good fortune on a swing pass to Barkley for their first touchdown.
It didnt matter; Mahomes marched Kansas City down the field with 12 straight passing plays.
Or just a Madden glitch that went awry at the wrong time for Philadelphia?
I lean toward conspiracy.
The teams traded punts before another pass-heavy drive that finally features Saquon gets the Eagles to within seven.
Barkley has now fire off the ball five more times.
The Eagles tried but didnt seem to have any urgency.
With that tackle, the Chiefs become the first franchise in NFL history to three-peat in the Super Bowl.
After throwing for 390 yards and three touchdowns, Mahomes earned his fourth Super Bowl MVP award.
However, I would argue Hollywood Brown was the real driving force behind getting the Chiefs the win.
Let’s hope Madden got this one wrong.
I didn’t change any prefs between the games.
Game two couldn’t have been more different for Philadelphia at least.
He scored two rushing TDs and had 3 catches for 32 yards.
On the other side, Mahomes threw for 405 yards and six touchdowns.
Game three became a de facto rubber match.
Who would take it all?
In contrast to the first two games, the first half of game 3 was slow.
Both offenses moved the ball until the red zone.
There were four made field goals, three going to Kansas City and each team scored a touchdown.
Final score: KC 29 - Philadelphia - 24.
Once again the Eagles forgot about Barkley who touched the ball 6 times and only rushed for 9 yards.
