From Underdogs to Unstoppable: Super Bowl LIX and The Writer
🔥 Nobody saw it coming. The underdog crushed the favorite, flipping the script on history.
Sound familiar? That’s what writers do also. So if you want to write, don’t be afraid to do it!
… In several jaw-dropping events, the Philadelphia Eagles soared to victory in Super Bowl LIX, decisively crushing the heavily favored Kansas City Chief,s with a final score of 40-22.
Despite entering the game as the underdog, the Eagles shattered expectations, shutting down the Chiefs’ historic bid for a three-peat.
But here’s the real takeaway: This wasn’t just a football game. It was a masterclass in self-belief, resilience, and proving the world wrong—the same formula that turns struggling writers into bestsellers.
If you’ve ever felt like the underdog in your writing journey, take notes. Super Bowl LIX is the playbook for that unexpected success, and we’re about to break it down now how.
The Underdog’s Journey: From Aspiration to Achievement
The Eagles’ win was not luck—it was the result of preparation, mindset, and sheer willpower. Quarterback Jalen Hurts, who was named Super Bowl MVP, completed 77.3% of his passes, racked up three touchdowns, and played the game with ice-cold precision.
… Now, think about famous writers. The vast most started out as nobodies:
J.K. Rowling was jobless, broke, and rejected by 12 publishers before a book named “Harry Potter” took off.
Stephen King got 30 rejections for a book called “Carrie” before a publisher finally said yes (he actually gave up on the story – his wife fished it out of the trash and sent it to publisher).
Andy Weir, author of The Martian, started by self-publishing his book for free—it later became a Hollywood blockbuster.
Like the Eagles, these authors never gave up. They played their game, ignored the doubters, and then finally crushed the competition.
5 Writing Lessons from Super Bowl LIX:
📜 Want to crush it like the Eagles? Apply these winning strategies to your writing journey:
- Preparation Wins The Games (and Writing) – The Eagles didn’t just show up and hope for the best. They studied, practiced, and executed their game plan. Writers need to do the same: read, write, edit, repeat.
- Ignore the Nay Sayers – Nobody knows nothing. Experts, critics, and even your family/friends might doubt your abilities. But, so what? That’s totally normal. Even the very best quarterbacks – and writers – face criticism. The key is to Keep writing, no matter what.
- One Play (One Page) at a Time – The Eagles didn’t score all their points at once—they chipped away at the win, one play at a time. Your book is no different. Write one page at a time until you reach the finish line. The process will get easier overtime, and eventually you will look FORWARD to doing it!
- Overtime is Okay Also – Some games (and books) take longer than expected. Revisions? Edits? Setbacks? It’s all part of the game plan. Stay with it. As the famous baseball player Yogi Berra used to say: …”It ain’t over, until it’s over.”
- Victory Comes to Those Who Participate – If the Eagles never took the field, they wouldn’t have had a chance to win. They competed. The same goes for your writing: Get in the game and start now—or you’ll never win.
A Few Facts, Trivia & Fun
🏈 Super Bowl First! – The Super Bowl LIX logo was handcrafted by a New Orleans artist, Tahj “Queen Tahj” Williams—that’s the first time the NFL has ever collaborated with a local artist for the official emblem.
📖 Writing Rejection Can Be Hilarious – George Orwell’s famous book ‘Animal Farm’ was once rejected with the note, “It is impossible to sell animal stories in the U.S.!” Imagine if he had given up—we’d never have one of the greatest political books ever written.
🔥 What If… The Eagles Had Given Up? – Imagine if, after losing in the Super Bowl to the Chiefs only two years ago, the Eagles quit before even playing again.
Now, imagine if Stephen King had stopped writing after his first of MANY DOZEN rejections. Same lesson for you: You only lose when you really stop trying.
Every legendary writer—like every Super Bowl-winning team—started at the very bottom. Including the Eagles and Chiefs.
The only difference between them and everyone else?
🚀 They showed up. They never quit. They did the work.
