Eagles vs. Patriots | Super Bowl LII Game Highlights

Eagles 41 Patriots 33 Super Bowl LII Minneapolis, MN

I remember when no one really gave the Philadelphia Eagles a chance to win in the playoffs. The Eagles had a first round bye with home field throughout the playoffs. They were able to stop the Atlanta Falcons 15-10 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, and then the Eagles were not only able to win against the Minnesota Vikings but the Eagles routed the Vikings 38-7 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. People thought that the New England Patriots would dominate winning 5 Super Bowl rings (3 of them questionable because of spy gate). This is not the same Eagles team that played the Patriots in 2004. This Eagles team scored points off of turnovers as well as with an excellent ground game attack running the football. Head coach of the Eagles Doug Peterson went risky all of the way with his play calling. Going for it on 4th and goal at the Patriots 4 yard line when Nick Foles caught a TD pass from tight end Trey Burton and Tom Brady's key strip sack and fumble recovered by Derek Barnett of the Eagles that helped the Eagles ice the game 41-33 in Super Bowl LII in Minneapolis, MN prove that Doug Peterson's play calling was worth the risk. The Eagles deserved this win and the Eagles had a wonderful game plan where most teams would not have taken risks the way that the Eagles have. The Super Bowl ratings was not as high as last year's Super Bowl because NFL players from teams decided to take a knee during the singing of the National Anthem. Not a fan of any NFL football team who disrespect the flag nor a fan of any team that have the reputation for cheating like the New England Patriots has. As good of a QB as Brady is and Brady is a really good QB the Patriots will wonder if they could have won Super Bowl XXXVI, XXXVIII, and XXXIX without spy gating. The Patriots are 3-0 spy gating and 2-3 not spy gating. 

The game was played in doors in Minneapolis, MN in a dome. The temperature inside was 70 degrees. The temperature outside of the Stadium was 10 degrees. The Eagles were the road team and the Patriots were the home team. Honestly, I think that had QB Carson Wentz would have played for the Eagles it wouldn't have made much of a difference because the Eagles D made crucial stops when they needed to, to halt a chance of Brady throwing another TD pass and perhaps tying the game to send the game into overtime. I honestly listened to most of the game on the radio and saw some of the plays on TV. This game reminded me when my favorite team won the Super Bowl for the first time. EAGLES FLYING HIGH. 😤
