The Philadelphia Eagles, who won the Super Bowl five years ago with a different coach and quarterback, will try to do it again behind the formidable duo of quarterback Jalen Hurts and coach Nick Sirianni.
PHILADELPHIA — Jalen Hurts can conduct a singalong about as well as he can orchestrate the kind of punishing scoring drives that sent the Philadelphia Eagles into the Super Bowl.
Hurts had a modest game by his standards after a season in which he was a finalist for MVP. He was 15 of 25 passing for 121 yards and ran for 39 yards, improving to 16-1 as a starter this season. The Eagles lost two games that he missed with a sprained right shoulder. “When you guys go into our indoor , there’s always that picture in the back part of it of the 2017 NFC championship game, and it’s just the electricity of the stadium,” said Sirianni, who was hired two years ago to replace the Eagles’ Super Bowl-winning coach, Doug Pederson. “We’re looking forward to getting another picture up there of this special moment that we had.”
Johnson bobbled a shotgun snap and fumbled on the next drive, and Reddick — the free-agent pickup from the Carolina Panthers having one of the great defensive seasons in franchise history — recovered at the San Francisco 30. Boston Scott scooted 10 yards for a touchdown and 21-7 lead. “Smart players do smart things,” Sirianni said. “He did a smart thing right there. I’m going to say he caught it, though.”
