Nick Foles, Tom Brady deliver an Eagles-Patriots Super Bowl

 Both the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles won their divisional championship games in much different fashions. The Pats on Sunday came out a little slow finding themselves down at half and they just lost TB12's best target in Rob Gronkowski to a head injury. As the fourth quarter came around the Jacksonville Jaguars were up 20-10 and with Tom's top options out against the number one pass defense in the league all hope seemed lost.. then you remember who's behind center for Belichick and the defending champs. Tom doing what he does, begins to mount a strong drive that gets halted within enemy territory after a trick play that looks very promising gets upended after a fumble, turning the ball back over to the Jags. This however wasn't enough to faze the "G.O.A.T." as he mounted two late game drives both ending in touchdowns to Danny Amendola, giving the Pats the win 24-20 advancing Brady to his 8th Super Bowl, seeking his 6th championship victory.

The Philadelphia Eagles found themselves in a little bit of an easier situation, the Vikings looking to be the first team to ever play in a super bowl in their home stadium stood one win away from capturing this feat, yet fell quite short after back up quarterback of the Eagles, Nick Foles, went out and played like a season vet putting up over 350 yards through the air along with 3 TDs. This dominate performance from Foles gave the Eagles the win 38-7.
