Definitely.

I thought Hurts was deserving and he set the tone for everything. The opening drive that the bad penalty put an end to, then his next drive scoring a touchdown, he looked poised and composed and felt like the whole team fed off it. And all game he took what came to him and played within himself.

That might not scream MVP to many people, but when you're playing the 2x defending champs it's exactly what was needed and what few (if any) QBs have demonstrated when going up against the Chiefs.

I sure wasnt expecting that to happen!

I also remember when the Eagles bitch slapped the Packers in two different hemispheres this season. Good times.

34-29 on an awful field and a closer game then any other team the Eagles beat in the playoffs, but keep telling yourself that, Jets fan.

[Senator Clay Davis]

But no one cares about the smelly ass Packers, so lets try and keep it to the actual champs instead.

To be fair when people were saying the Eagles had a cakewalk to the Super Bowl a fair amount of that was due to the perception around the fraudulent packers team they started their run by dismantling. In the end though maybe that warm up game was good for the tougher Rams and Commanders teams they also dispatched with relative ease on their way to the title.

We still sticking with the narrative they had an easy path to the game or maybe they actually are dominant?

Fans who attended the Superbowl were rattled by the sky high cocktail prices.

The “Blackberry Lemonade” — made with Crown Royal blackberry and lemonade — was $40, while the “Royal Carnival Queen” — mixed with Crown Royal apple, blackberry liqueur, lemon juice, prosecco, and lemon curl garnish — cost $26.

Totally. Same with the Giants in 2007; they demolished Brady and the OL all game, Justin Tuck got robbed. Eli had roughly a 50% completion rate until the end, he won it for that insane final drive alone (plus a QB, and named Manning helps).

QB will always be the pretty one getting the attention while the line goes unnoticed, it is what it is.

lol at the idea that they "easily dispatched" the Rams. Without a blizzard and slippery ball, the Rams probably win that one.

The Eagles are an excellent team, full marks for the championship. But I think the Bills would have put up a much better fight if they had been in the big game, and possibly even win.

11-6 in the toughest division in Football, but ok.

[Senator Clay Davis]

You mean the toughest division in football that didn't even win a single playoff game amongst the three teams? Sounds like a pretty fraudulent division to me.

[Junglist]

Yup, yup, sure, sure.

Eagles were lucky to win the Superbowl. Barely a top 5 team during the year.
