Nick Foles, the backup quarterback who led the Eagles to their only Super Bowl victory, served as an honorary captain ahead of Monday night's home opener and led the crowd in a rendition of 'Fly, Eagles, Fly.'
Jason Kelce is unsuccessful in his attempt to suit up for the Eagles, but he is successful at firing up the crowd before"Monday Night Countdown." ' last official pass in Philadelphia the night he was feted by the franchise he led to its only Super Bowl win was of a dog mask into a ravenous, roaring crowd.
Foles threw for 373 yards and three touchdowns against the Patriots, but he is likely best remembered for the"Philly Special." On fourth-and-goal inside the Patriots' 5-yard line, Foles floated from behind center to behind the right tackle before the snap, leaving running backalone in the backfield. Clement took the snap, and Foles hesitated before running undefended into the end zone.
