The Eagles and Chiefs haven’t even traveled to Glendale, Arizona, for Super Bowl 57, so there is a dearth of “news” to report.
But here’s something.
The disrespect that Philly and the Eagles get from the national media continues unabated.
USA Today has ranked the 56 Super Bowls, and, don’t you know, the Birds pulsating win over Tom Brady and the Pats is only 7th:
7. LII (52, 2017) Eagles 41, Patriots 33
Maybe a nearly six-decade wait between championships and a first Super Bowl crown was almost worth it for The City of Brotherly Love?
MVP Nick Foles (373 yards and 3 TDs through the air) led the charge, his 1-yard TD grab before halftime on the now-legendary “Philly Special” serving as the indelible sequence.
But Eagles DE Brandon Graham basically assured the result by serving up the game’s lone defensive highlight with a strip sack of Brady with 2:09 to go (above).
TB12 fired off a game record 505 yards through the air before succumbing on a day when the clubs combined for an NFL record 1,151 yards of total offense.
