The Kansas City Chiefs reminded everyone why they belong on the sport's biggest stage with another come-from-behind win to beat the Philadelphia Eagles at Super Bowl LVII in Glendale, Ariz.

Despite trailing by 10 at half, the Chiefs slowly chipped away at the lead and eventually came out on top with a last-second field goal to win their second Super Bowl in four years. This year's win might not have reached the same level of drama as the 21-point fourth-quarter comeback against the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV, but it had no shortage of entertainment.

Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts paced the team through halftime with 246 total yards and three touchdowns -- two on the ground -- to return to the locker room with a 24-14 lead. Meanwhile, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes hobbled off the field with just over a minute remaining in the second quarter, having seemingly reinjured his high ankle sprain suffered in the divisional round against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Out of the break, both teams tried to assert themselves while practicing game management. Come the fourth quarter, however, it was all Kansas City.

The Chiefs forced a third-and-out with 10 minutes remaining, setting Kadarius Toney up for a 65-yard punt return. Rookie duo Isaiah Pacheco and Skyy Moore stepped in to move the ball, with Moore recording a 4-yard catch in the end zone to give Kansas City a 35-27 lead.

Hurts responded with a touchdown of his own, making him the first quarterback to rush for three touchdowns in a Super Bowl. He also broke Steve McNair's 23-year record for most rushing yards by a quarterback in a Super Bowl.

Unfortunately for Eagles fans, the record-breaking performance wasn't enough to stop Mahomes. The sprained ankle didn't seem to bother the NFL and Super Bowl MVP as he marched 66 yards down the field and set up Harrison Butker for a 27-yard field goal with eight seconds remaining.

This is Kansas City's third Super Bowl victory in franchise history.
