The first half was completely dominated by the Eagles, as they stormed to a commanding 24-0 lead over the defending champions.

Quarterback Jalen Hurts set the tone early, orchestrating a 69-yard drive in the first quarter, capped off by a 1-yard touchdown run to give Philadelphia an early 7-0 advantage.

In the second quarter, the Eagles’ defense ramped up the pressure on Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean intercepted a pass and ran it back 38 yards for a touchdown, extending the lead to 17-0.

And just before Kendrick Lamar’s electrifying halftime performance, the Eagles capitalized on another turnover.

Linebacker Zack Baun picked off Mahomes, setting up a 12-yard touchdown pass from Hurts to wide receiver A.J. Brown, sending Philadelphia into the break with a dominant 24-0 lead.
