Super Bowl LVIII

Super Bowl LVIII was an American football game played to determine the champion of the National Football League (NFL) for the 2023 season between the National Football Conference (NFC) champion San Francisco 49ers and the American Football Conference (AFC) champion and defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. In a rematch of Super Bowl LIV four years earlier and also featuring the second overtime in Super Bowl history, the Chiefs would defeat the 49ers again 25–22. It was the longest Super Bowl in NFL history, with a net playing time of 74 minutes and 57 seconds. The game was played on February 11, 2024, at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, being the first Super Bowl to be held in the state of Nevada. Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes was named Super Bowl MVP for the third time in his career, completing 34 of 46 passes for 333 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception.

Kansas City received its fourth Super Bowl title in the franchise's sixth appearance and second consecutive, becoming the first team since the 2004 New England Patriots to repeat as champions. The Chiefs posted an 11-6 record and the AFC’s 3rd seed for the season. San Francisco was handed its third consecutive Super Bowl loss after Super Bowls XLVII and LIV. The latter entered the game with a 12-5 record and NFC’s top seed, and the franchise's eighth Super Bowl appearance. In addition, the 49ers were seeking their sixth Super Bowl title, which would have put the franchise in a three-way tie with the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers for most Super Bowl Championships.

The game began with the two teams exchanging possessions until the second quarter, where a trick play culminated in 49ers runningback Christian McCaffrey increasing San Francisco's score to 10–3 by halftime. However, in the third quarter, following the Chiefs' second field goal and subsequent punt, the ball was fumbled and recovered by Kansas City after it bounced off the shoe of 49ers' cornerback Darrell Luter Jr., which set up the Chiefs in the red zone to take the lead at 10–13. The 49ers responded with a touchdown drive that carried into the fourth quarter, with an extra point attempt by 49ers kicker Jake Moody getting blocked by Chiefs linebacker Leo Chenal, leaving the score 16–13 with 11:20 left in regulation. Following several successful field goal attempts by both teams, the game went into overtime as the Chiefs' fourth successful field goal by kicker Harrison Butker ended regulation to tie the score once again at 19–19. In overtime, San Francisco won the coin toss and elected to first possess the ball. They were then stalled at the Chiefs' 9-yard-line, opting to settle for a field goal, making the score 22-19. During Kansas City's overtime possession, Mahomes led a 75-yard drive. The game was then subsequently decided in its final play, nicknamed "Tom and Jerry", as Mahomes threw the ball to wide receiver Mecole Hardman, who ran toward the sideline during the pre-snap and walked the ball into the endzone, three seconds away from an unprecedented second overtime and concluding the game at 22-25.

It was the second overtime in Super Bowl history, the first being Super Bowl LI in 2017. The game was also the first Super Bowl to use the new overtime rules implemented during the 2022 season, and the first Super Bowl since its inception that George Toma did not serve as groundskeeper. The game's sellout attendance of 61,629 was the smallest unrestricted crowd in Super Bowl history due to the seating capacity of Allegiant Stadium, and the smallest unrestricted NFL Championship attendance since December 1946 (58,346).

Super Bowl LVIII is considered one of the greatest Super Bowls of all time by several sports outlets, with many citing the performances of both teams, the game's overtime finish, in addition to the game cementing the Chiefs as a dynasty. It was the second simulcast in Super Bowl history, and the first since Super Bowl I. The game's broadcast on CBS, youth-oriented Nickelodeon, and Spanish-language network Univision became the most watched program in American television history at the time and is currently the third most-watched American television broadcast of all time, with a total of 123.7 million average viewers across all platforms. In addition, the game produced the highest unduplicated total audience in television history at 200 million viewers watching all or part of the game, becoming the most-watched United States broadcast since the Apollo 11 moon landing. This continued an upward viewing trend that would be broken again the following year. The halftime show, headlined by Usher, peaked at 129 million viewers.

The Chiefs reached the Super Bowl once again in 2025 for a third consecutive year in a bid for an unprecedented three-peat in the Super Bowl era, but ultimately lost to the Philadelphia Eagles, 40-22.
