Eagles’ Philly Special sequel wasn’t as dramatic as in Super Bowl, but it was a hit | Marcus Hayes

Lightning delayed the start of the Eagles' season for 45 minutes. Incompetence delayed any real defense of their championship for 2 ½quarters more. The team and their fans needed a spark. So … Why not?

It was a smash hit again Thursday night. It changed everything. It awakened the offense. It resuscitated the crowd.

Nick Foles received a shotgun snap, handed off to running back Corey Clement and took off. Clement ran left, then flipped the ball to Nelson Agholor, who had reversed and was running right. Agholor took two steps and spun a lovely toss 15 yards to Foles.
