I still can’t believe they did it.
“The Dagger.”
One of those few plays in Philadelphia sports history defined by the broadcaster, in this case Fox’s Kevin Burkhardt, who called it, Jalen Hurts’ deep bomb to DeVonta Smith in the third quarter of the Eagles’ eventual 40-22 victory over the Chiefs in Super Bowl 59 is etched in NFL lore forever.
No, it’ll never be considered the “greatest” play in Eagles history, not when you have Super Bowl 52’s Philly Special or Brandon Graham’s strip sack of Tom Brady, and one could argue Cooper DeJean’s interception return is the biggest play from 59, but there’s no doubt “The Dagger” is one of the biggest flex plays in NFL history.
