Super Bowl 2023: What to know about the game ?

Super Bowl LVII is set.

The final game of the 2022-23 season will be played between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs after both teams won their respective conference title games on Jan. 29.

The Eagles defeated the San Francisco 49ers in a 31-7 blowout. The 49ers lost Brock Purdy early and rushing touchdowns from Jalen Hurts, Miles Sanders and Boston Scott pushed the Eagles past one of the best defenses in football. San Francisco never really got going after the Purdy injury.

The Chiefs edged the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20. Patrick Mahomes was great even with a high-ankle sprain. His gallop at the end of the game, which drew a penalty, helped set up Harrison Butker’s game-winning field goal. Kansas City was able to do enough to keep Joe Burrow at bay.

The matchup will feature the two best teams in the league. Both teams earned first-round byes. However, now the real challenges will begin.

How will Mahomes’ ankle heal before the game? Will the Chiefs’ offensive line be able to hold the pass rush? Will Hurts be able to replicate his performance in the biggest game of his career?

All those questions will be answered in less than two weeks.

Rihanna will be performing at halftime of the Super Bowl. In September, the Savage X Fenty founder very subtly announced that she would be headlining the halftime show by posting a photo of her hand holding up a football.

Super Bowl LVII will be sponsored by Apple Music after a decade with Pepsi. In addition, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation is returning for the third year to help produce the halftime spectacular.

“Rihanna is a generational talent, a woman of humble beginnings who has surpassed expectations at every turn. A person born on the small island of Barbados who became one of the most prominent artists ever. Self-made in business and entertainment,” Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter, said in a release from the NFL at the time.

Honorary Super Bowl captains

Four Pat Tillman Foundation scholars will serve as honorary captains for the game, Fabersha Flynt, military spouse and Ed.D. candidate, Robert Ham, a U.S. Army veteran and filmmaker, Dr. Hyejung Park, a U.S. Army reservist and developmental psychologist and Dave Praksh, a U.S. Air Force veteran and physician technologist, will participate in the on-field coin toss ceremony.

The scholars are meant to represent the legacy of service Tillman left behind. Tillman, a former member of the Arizona Cardinals, joined the U.S. Army after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He was killed in friendly fire while serving in Afghanistan in 2004.
