Inside the Eagles’ Super Bowl Blueprint: How One GM’s Secret Strategy Built Three Championship Teams
Wentz cosplayed as one of the best players in the NFL for most of the regular season before he suffered an ACL tear and gave way to Foles for the playoffs. Doug Pederson, a head coach whoâs since been fired not just by Roseman but also by the miserable Jacksonville Jaguars, made the most memorable play call in Super Bowl history, the âPhilly Specialâ pass to Foles on 4th-and-goal.
The roster from 2017 had almost fully flipped by the time the Eagles lifted the Lombardi Trophy again Sunday night. Only Johnson, Graham, kicker Jake Elliott and long snapper Rick Lovato remained from it. That degree of turnover is natural in the modern NFL, but it was Rosemanâs willingness to change not long after this first title that signified the Eagles would have many good days ahead.
