Doug Pederson Dethroned The Patriots By Taking Every Risk

That Super Bowl Was Everything Anyone Could Have Asked For
Last night, the Philadelphia Eagles scored a fourth-down touchdown with one of the most inventive plays in modern Super Bowl history, averaged over six yards per rush, and punted just once. Yet they were somehow, statistically speaking, the Super Bowl’s second-best offense. Tom Brady’s 505 passing y...

Upon Further Review, The NFL Dodged A Bullet
Thank god for Brandon Graham. It was his effectively game-sealing strip-sack of Tom Brady—an actual, incontrovertible football play, a display of the kind of strength and athleticism and determination that bring us to the sport in the first place, a moment for which there was no reason to doubt your...

HEY, PATRIOTS! FUCK YOU IN THE FACE!<em></em>
There is never a guarantee you’ll get a Patriots Schadenfreude Day.

City Of Philadelphia Deploys Advanced Pole-Greasing Tactics
The battle between Philadelphia and its rowdy, pole-climbing residents has entered a new stage.
