Doug Pederson Had an Ace in the Hole

Super Bowl LII had everything. Great players, spectacular plays, excitement, suspense, and even a fairy tale ending for those who like to root for the underdog. Well, the game had almost everything – if you care about stout defenses.

The key play of the game happened with 38 seconds remaining in the first half. The Patriots had just scored on a seven-play 90-yard drive, cutting the Eagles lead to three points.

The Eagles took over at their own 30 with 1:59 left in the half. QB Nick Foles continued his pinpoint passing with a finesse toss to Corey Clement, who rambled for 55 yards, down to the 8-yard line.
