The Kansas City Chiefs finished the 2022 season with a 14–3 record, improving on their 12–5 record from the previous year.
Super Bowl LVII will be their third Super Bowl appearance in four seasons under head coach Andy Reid and quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Under 2nd year head coach Nick Sirianni, the Philadelphia Eagles stormed to the top of the league with 8 consecutive wins before finishing the season tied for an NFL-best 14–3 record and advancing to the Super Bowl by easily trouncing their two playoff opponents with a combined scoring margin of 69–14.
The team excelled on both sides of the ball, scoring 477 points (3rd in the NFL) while only allowing 344 (8th) and sending an NFL-best 8 players to the Pro Bowl.
Pro Bowl quarterback Jalen Hurts led the offense, setting new career highs in his 3rd season in completions (306), completion percentage (66%), passing yards (3,701) and passing touchdowns (22), while throwing just 6 interceptions, giving a career high 101.5 passer rating, 4th best in the NFL.
Hurts was also a superb rusher, running for another 736 yards and 13 touchdowns, the second highest total in the league. Pro Bowl receiver A. J. Brown caught 88 passes for 1,496 yards and 11 touchdowns, while receiver DeVonta Smith led the team in receptions with 95, gaining 1,196 yards and 7 scores.
Tight end Dallas Goedert was another reliable target with 55 catches for 702 yards and three touchdowns. Pro Bowl running back Miles Sanders ranked 5th in the NFL with 1,269 yards and 11 touchdowns, averaging 4.9 yards per carry.
The team also had an elite offensive line that put 3 of its 5 starters into the pro bowl. 2nd year guard Landon Dickerson made his first pro bowl selection, while tackle Lane Johnson and center Jason Kelce respectively made the pro bowl for the 4th and 6th times.
Kicker Jake Elliott made 20 of 23 field goals (87%), including 5/6 from at least 50 yards. Receiver Britain Covey returned 33 punts for 308 yards, and 10 kickoffs for 206.
Philadelphia’s defense ranked second in the league in fewest yards allowed (5,125) and set an NFL record with four players who recorded double-digit sacks.
The team had an outstanding defensive line, featuring defensive ends Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham, who each recorded 11 sacks, along with defensive tackles Fletcher Cox (7 sacks), Javon Hargrave (11 sacks, 2 fumble recoveries), and Milton Williams (4 sacks).
Pro Bowl linebacker Haason Reddick ranked second in the NFL with 16 sacks, while also forcing 5 fumbles and recovering 3. Linebackers T. J. Edwards and Kyzir White each recorded over 100 combined tackles and broke up 7 passes.
In the secondary, safety C. J. Gardner-Johnson co-led the NFL with 6 interceptions, while Pro Bowl cornerback Darius Slay and All-Pro cornerback James Bradberry each had 3.
