On the night that Kendrick Lamar buried Drake, we also got to see some odd celebrity pairings (yay, Kevin Costner and Pete Davidson!) and some odder commercials (boo, Seal as a seal and skin hats!)

Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show was the ultimate victory lap for his feud with Drake. Yet it was also so much more.

ESPN Research: The Eagles blitzed Patrick Mahomes on zero of his 42 dropbacks.
Mahomes is the 6th QB in Super Bowl history to not be blitzed a single time. All six QBs lost.
The Eagles did not blitz once across 42 dropbacks in Super Bowl LIX, just the 4th defense to not blitz in a game in the NGS era.
Relying on their front four, the Eagles generated 16 pressures and sacked Mahomes six times, his most in a game in his career.

The 6 sacks the Eagles have on Patrick Mahomes are the most by any defense against him in a single game during his career.
An actual all-time performance here.
Patrick Mahomes' -0.62 EPA per dropback in the first three quarters of this game is the worst of of any game in his career AND the second-worst of any QB in a Super Bowl since at least 2000.
Eagles' defensive success rate is 95%, easily the highest for the first half in any Super Bowl since at least 2000.
Eagles are also allowing 1.1 yards per play, also the best for a first half in the SB since at least 2000.
