Those two Chiefs plays that the Eagles just could not stop in the Super Bowl

New York Times  

GLENDALE, Ariz. — Two plays that left the Eagles flat-footed in Super Bowl LVII had left Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney flat on his back this week. Toney provided a reminder three days before the Super Bowl when he landed flat on his back on one rep. “I got the video,” Toney said after the Chiefs’ 38-35 win Sunday. “Two feet, flat,” said Chiefs’ wide receivers coach Joe Bleymaier. The practice fields were slippery, and these guys were going full speed, foot in the ground, back out and right on his butt.” GO DEEPER Chiefs win Super Bowl LVII, beating Eagles 38-35 But they kept working at it, just as they had since picking it up from the Bills, who ran it with great success in the teams’ 2022 Divisional Round matchup. “Every time it gets called, I’m just upstairs thinking if they can just plant and stay up right, it’s a tough reaction going full speed for the defense,” Bleymaier said.
