The Jags might want to take a good look at how Peterson handled the end of the first half. Jags had nearly a minute left and 2 timeouts and decided to take a knee. Eagles had like 38 seconds left and 3 timeouts and drove down field and got a FG.

Oh, and the vaunted Vikings defense has been torched for TD of 53 and 41 yards.
Playing not to lose. I don’t care who the hot team in the playoffs is, experience pays off!

What’s funny/noteworthy to me is, the Vikings and Jags both had their “Super Bowls” last week in big emotional victories, had to wonder where their focus was headed into the championship game

Should've kicked the FG.

Yep. Going for it was really stupid at that point in the game. Even if they amazingly get three TDs they will likely lose. Two point conversions were just under 50% this year. So, to hit three in a row, it's 1/2 x1/2x1/2 = 1/8 times you get three successful attempts. Kick the FG and if you get 3 TDs, conversion rates of extra points is 95%. A more plausible route to forcing OT.

I'd give up a third just fine. All I'm seeing here is irrefutable evidence that Jeff Fisher is the destroyer of quarterbacks.
Everyone in sight gets worlds better the first year they get away from him.

Is Zimmer a bad coach for winning only one playoff game in 5 years?

Regardless how the Eagles do in the Super Bowl, Nick Foles' stock just shot way up.

it has...and the truth is he didnt suck before... but he has shown great composure under pressure...winning in the playoffs is not easy.
Is Amazing how he stay calm in the pocket even under pressure, and great touch from his throws

One of the best performance i saw in a championship game by a qb

Andy Reid and Chip Kelly both made power plays to get rid of Howie Roseman. Somehow Roseman survived and came out on top.

Oddly enough, our blowout loss in the NFC title game felt more embarrassing than this game.

Doug Pederson might be way better than McVay in play calling. That says a lot

I never have understood the fascination with him!!! His offenses have rarely been anything more than average. Truth

Thank God we didn’t hire him. :barf:
I like what he did with limited skill set of Keenum. But I see another McAdoo in Shurmur

No way, wasn't Newton MVP that year?

The Vikings are getting THUMPED by Nick Foles. Not even close IMO.

Lets see in 2 weeks
As for today, playing against the best defense , by stats, of the Nfl , racking up 356 yards, 3td pass and a rating of 158 is one of the best performance i saw in a championship game

JDF & Foles combo in our future? Its at the very least intriguing
Nick has one year left on his contract...it was a five year but has a built in void clause...basically five just for salary cap.

He has a history of better play than Keenum and more durability than Bradford
