If brady doesn't win super bowl mvp, its rigged
IDK about rigged. Brady had more yards, but Foles led the game winning drive.
Foles also had a TD catch.
That play call ranks up there with the best of them in SB history.
It would seem more impressive if it didn't come right after the Patriots tried the same thing on the previous series. They were on the 1 yard line - it was gutsy, but the Patriots weren't ever going to hold the Eagles to less than 1 yard no matter what the Eagles did there.
The two touchdowns that weren't overturned for the Eagles seemed like they should have been. Regardless of what you think a catch is, both of those plays have been pretty commonly called as 'drops' throughout the season.
Horrible defensive effort - zero pressure on Foles, gave up endless 3rd and 4th down conversions. TB had an amazing game, but go figure that he completely blows it (along with Shaq Mason) when it mattered most.
Next year we should have Hightower, Edelman, and Cooks back. No reason we can't make another trip to the SB, but the defense needs to improve.
tl;dr - total bummer...
