    A bespoke menu has been created for fans at today's game, influenced by the Cajun and Creole cuisine to be found in New Orleans. And there'll be a LOT of it. This is what has been produced:

    • 5,000+ alligator sausages (yes, really!!)

    • 6,500+ pounds (almost three tons) of shrimp just for po'boy sandwiches

    • 50,000+ locally-sourced baguettes (from the Leidenheimer bakery, a New Orleans institution… it's not a real po'boy unless it's on Leidenheimer bread)

    • 5,000+ slices of pizza

    • 7,000+ hot dogs

    • 50,000+ cocktails

    • 150,000+ nacho chips

    Brandon Graham has spent his entire career with the Philadelphia Eagles. He helped them win their first Super Bowl against the New England Patriots in 2018 then was on the losing team against the Kansas City Chiefs two years ago.

    The defensive end suffered a torn triceps towards the end of November but was able to rejoin practice this week and the Eagles activated him from Injured Reserve on Saturday.

    He is now able to play in his third Super Bowl and at 36, this could be his last, so he spoke this week about what it would mean to win a second Super Bowl with the Eagles.

    "It would mean a lot, for me and all of us," he said. "You put the work in every day and we've talked about it from the beginning of the off-season.

    "Now we're in this moment and all I want to do is make sure we put our best foot forward and give ourselves a chance. It would be a great feeling for everybody."

  3. The Eagles have to put pressure on Mahomes - Gronkowskipublished at 16:50 9 February

    Four-time Super Bowl winner Rob Gronkowski on who will win Super Bowl 59:

    "I would say that the key match-up is Philadelphia's defensive line against Kansas City's offensive line. I say that because if the Philadelphia Eagles want to win this game, they've got to put pressure on Patrick Mahomes.

    "They've got to make him worry in the pocket, they've got to make him fear that he shouldn't step up because he's going to get sacked.

    "They've got to frustrate him, and that's going to be all up to the Philadelphia Eagles' defensive line, and I think that could be the possible difference maker if the Eagles want to win. But I think the Chiefs will win 30-26."
