The TV blather is hilarious, but you can't beat reality. Nick Foles is a good QB on an awesome team. The Eagles defense folded but they made the big play LAST. New England's defense was terrible. Their offensive line held up better than i thought it would but the defense was a weakness against every good team they played this year. When you see NE giving up 30 points a game at home there's problems......Yeah, you can beat up on the tomato cans in the middle of the season, but that defense got torched a good portion of the year. They could not get the Eagles off the field. You can try to take one Eagle away but they have 5(at any given play) people they can dish the ball to. The Eagle offensive line ran over that defense like they were pansies on running plays.
Tom Brady played his usual great game, but as I always say, he doesn't cover people, block people or tackle people. Its a team sport! The Eagles won on aggressive calls and basic football. They out blocked and out tackled the New England Patriots. Bill Belichick wears the dunce cap and Doug Pederson looks like the genius. He done out Patriotated the Patriots.
