On December 10th, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz tore his ACL in the fourth quarter of a match-up with the Los Angeles Rams. At that point, with an 11-2 record and sitting at the top of their division, the Eagles were a lock for the playoffs. But they had just lost the most important player on their team and were going to have to depend on backup QB Nick Foles for the remainder of the season. And all he did was go 4-1 down the stretch.
So now, in spite of everything, Foles and the Eagles will face off against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots on Sunday, February 4th at 3:30PM PT / 6:30PM ET in Super Bowl LII at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. The Eagles are looking for their first Super Bowl win, while the Patriots are looking to tie the Steelers for the most.
