Eagles Driven to Finish the Job in Super Bowl Rematch
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts says the sting of losing Super Bowl LVII to the Kansas City Chiefs serves as a powerful motivator as the two teams prepare for a rematch on Sunday. Hurts believes the experience has made him wiser and more steadfast.
“It lit a flame, lit a fire in me, and to have this opportunity again is exactly what you work for,” Hurts said.
The Eagles have made significant strides since their heartbreaking loss two years ago. Despite a disappointing finish to the 2023 season, they bounced back with a dominant 14-3 record this year, culminating in three remarkable playoff victories, including a resounding 55-23 drubbing of the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game.
A key addition since the last Super Bowl matchup is running back Saquon barkley, who has had an MVP-caliber season and needs just 30 yards to break Terrell Davis’ single-season rushing record (including playoffs). Coupled with the league’s No.1 defence,the Eagles are a formidable force.
Hurts, who put up a career-best performance in his first Super Bowl appearance, knows finishing the job this time around will require unwavering focus.
“You’ve got to be able to finish,” Hurts emphasized. “And that’s going to take great focus,a great week of prep this week,putting it all together.”
