Congrats to the Eagles...

In order to beat a team like the Patriots, you have to bring your "A" game.

They did that. Tom Brady had one of the greatest Super Bowl performances a QB could ever have.

Not only did the Eagles play a near-mistake free game, they had an aggressive game plan. Unlike the Seahawks and Falcons, the Eagles are coached by an offensive-minded coach in Doug Pederson, a former backup quarterback to Brett Favre.

Pederson outcoached Bill Belichick. He coached like a former QB. It was a near-perfect game plan. Yes, they gave up a lot of yard to the Patriots, however, those big chunk plays limited the Patriots time of possession, and they couldn't capitalize with touchdowns in the first half.

Congrats.

He actually played worse against the Patriots than he did the Vikings.

degree of difficulty: Brady against a good Eagles defense:

Foles against a piss poor Patriots defense.

Not debating the respective strengths of the Pats and Vikings defenses, but in the SB I saw Foles throw through more than a few very tight, double coverage windows. He looked really, really good. I shut off the Vikings/Eagles game in the 2nd Q (bored to tears) so I can't really compare that game.

Neither D looked good in the SB, but what really stank was the Pats special teams.
