Texas Players Shine In Super Bowl LIX: Chiefs Vs. Eagles Matchup

The stage is set for Super Bowl LIX and these players will represent Texas in the biggest sports event on the planet. 

The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles punched their ticket to the big dance and will square off for the right to call themselves Super Bowl champions. Kansas City will be looking for an unprecedented third straight victory while the Eagles will be looking for redemption after losing to Mahomes and the gang in Super Bowl 57 in 2022.

Texas Ties

As a Dallas Cowboys fan, I have no horse in this race. But it's fun to look at the players that called their old stomping grounds Texas. Besides, my team has been in the land of mediocrity for three decades so what else am I going to do?

Conspiracy Theory

The matchup coincides with the conspiracy theory that the NFL is rigged and that the logo for this year's Super Bowl, which was unveiled before the NFC and AFC Championship games, carries the colors of who the NFL thought would be in the last game of the season.

Now that Philly and the Chiefs are in, that thought does carry a little water now and folks are losing their mind over it. Personally, I don't think the NFL could be rigged. I mean, have you seen some of the injuries that happen on any given Sunday?

Another good point is that if the NFL was rigged, why haven't the Dallas Cowboys won anything in three decades?
