The Philadelphia Eagles’ remarkable journey to Super Bowl LII was riddled with key losses along the way. Among the most notable was that of left tackle Jason Peters, who was part of the rash of NFL stars whose 2017 NFL season was cut short by an ACL tear. As a result, there is speculation as […]

The Philadelphia Eagles took the NFL by surprise after capping off their unlikely 2017 season with a win over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII. Needless to say, they will no longer sneaking up on any team in the future, and head coach Doug Pederson does not plan to. In fact, he is quite confident […]

The song and dance for every Super Bowl champion remain the same. A Vince Lombardi Trophy after a hard-earned season. A raucous parade in the city. The prestigious White House trip. (Back in the day, a Disney World trip with the MVP of the game responsible for repeating those very magical words.) Now that the Philadelphia […]

Perhaps the defining play of the Philadelphia Eagles’ dramatic Super Bowl win was the “Philly Special.” That audacious trick play, which Doug Pederson called on fourth down at the Patriots’ one-yard line and saw tight end Trey Burton throw a touchdown pass to quarterback and eventual Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles, will be forever ingrained […]

It was a year to remember for the Philadelphia Eagles and their fans.

The Dallas Cowboys offense took a major step back in the 2017 NFL season. Needless to say, their lackluster scoring performance did not go unnoticed by former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworski. The Cowboys are known for their run-heavy scheme behind one of the best offensive lines in the NFL. However, Jaworski said that their approach on that side […]

Super Bowl LII featured a number of questionable game-changing moments.

The longer it’s been, the sweeter it becomes. There’s no question fans of the New England Patriots have been put into another class of spoiled as of late.

However, the one that […]

There’s something about winning that makes Philadelphia sports fans want to get their feet off the ground and climb up tall objects.

It’s customary for the two starting quarterbacks to embrace with a postgame handshake at the conclusion of the Super Bowl, regardless of the result.

It was quite the 2017 season for Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi. Needless to say, there is no love lost for his former head coach with the Miami Dolphins, Adam Gase. Ajayi was traded midway through the year after a disastrous start for the Dolphins. However, things ultimately worked out for the best, winning Super […]

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson made a bold claim prior to the 2017 NFL season. Johnson guaranteed beer for “everybody” in Philadelphia should the Eagles win it all.

Sometimes it’s important to place things into a certain and accurate perspective. Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles is one individual who usually doesn’t have to remember this, as he feels like one of the most grounded human beings you’ll ever come across, but a friendly reminder could never hurt. According to Charean Williams of Pro […]

It’s not often that a player wins back-to-back Super Bowls with two different teams, and even less often that they beat their former team in the process of winning that second title.

After the […]

There was a solid length of time in which the NFC East owned the NFL. The Washington Redskins won three Super Bowls. The Dallas Cowboys captured three Super Bowls.

It was 58 years in the making. For that reason alone, we’ll have to cut all those in Philadelphia a break. Bradley Cooper was losing his mind. Kevin Hart was drinking a little too much and running into security. Rocky Balboa has made a comeback. And, of course, Philadelphians everywhere were losing their minds on […]

The doubts surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles had been heard loud and clear throughout the postseason. However, tight end Zach Ertz had little doubts about the team’s preparation leading up to Super Bowl LII. Most teams use the extra time off to help players get healthy while working on the game plan. According to Darin Gantt of Pro Football Talk, Ertz says Philadelphia turned it up […]
