The “Philly Special” is a trick play that was run during Super Bowl LII by the Philadelphia Eagles. The play was run on fourth-down-and-goal during the game. This play won the game for the Philadelphia Eagles and gave them their first Super Bowl win. However, the Eagles are not the only team that performed similar plays. The North Carolina Tar Heels also ran one. So what made this special play so special?
Trey Burton throws “Philly Special” touchdown pass to quarterback Nick Foles
In Super Bowl LII, quarterback Nick Foles caught a perfect touchdown pass from tight end Trey Burton. The play, known as the “Philly Special,” gave the Eagles a 22-12 halftime lead. Although the Rams re-created the play, the results were far from encouraging. Philly fans mocked the play, while Rams fans cheered the original version.
The decision to call a play that will allow Foles to catch the “Philly Special” touchdown pass from tight end Trey Burton essentially defined Philadelphia’s 41-33 win over the New England Patriots. Inside the NFL Films released a video of the play, which marries Foles’ call with Merrill Reese’s.
After the Super Bowl, Burton has become a household name thanks to his heroics. He was part of the most famous play in NFL history. In fact, he has received a call-up from NFL star quarterbacks, including Foles himself. The play was dubbed the “Philly Special” after the quarterback abused the play’s name when he suggested it.
After the game ended, the Eagles had the ball on their own 1-yard line. Many expected the Eagles to kick a field goal to take the lead and avoid the penalty. However, Pederson decided to take a risk and go for the game-winning touchdown instead. The Eagles called a timeout to set up the play, and Foles began in a shotgun formation, split out to the left side and stepped behind his tackle Lane Johnson. He then pitched the ball to Burton, who was wide open.
The “Philly Special” is one of the most iconic plays in NFL history. It took an Eagle’s quarterback 10 seconds to make the catch in the end zone and give Philadelphia a 22-12 halftime lead. Then, the Eagles had the opportunity to win the Super Bowl with the “Philly Special”.
After the failed “Philly Special,” the Bengals pulled off a trick play of their own. Running back Joe Mixon threw a touchdown pass to receiver Tee Higgins in the second quarter, a play originally set up for a run to the outside. The Bengals were down to 13-10 at the time. This was the first Super Bowl wagering record to be broken by any team.

Philadelphia Eagles win first Super Bowl
The Philadelphia Eagles have finally reached their first Super Bowl after beating the New England Patriots in the game. The victory was exciting, nail-biting, and a spectacle to behold. The Eagles, led by quarterback Carson Wentz, are now the first NFC East team to win a Super Bowl. Read on to learn how the Eagles did it and why they deserve it. If you’ve been waiting for the moment, Philadelphia Eagles fans have been waiting for it.
The Philadelphia Eagles won their first Super Bowl game, a game which had been heavily favored by NFL fans and media alike. The Eagles defeated the New England Patriots 41-33. The game was so exciting because of the dramatic finish, which involved the underdogs. The Eagles’ first Super Bowl win was incredible, with Alshon Jeffery’s touchdown pirouette and Zach Ertz’s dive into the end zone. Brandon Graham made a strip-sack and Tom Brady tried a Hail Mary attempt.
For fans, it is a historic victory. Philadelphia has long been a top contender in the NFC East, but the team had never been able to reach the Super Bowl. But Jeffrey Lurie, the team’s owner, has praised his team and fans for overcoming challenges to win the title. It’s also a sign that the team’s loyal fan base is among the best in the sport.
The Eagles’ front office was aggressive in their pursuit of talent. They signed talented quarterbacks to their roster, including a young quarterback. In addition to being a top-tier player, Philadelphia added a talented backup quarterback, Nick Foles. After losing Wentz to an ACL tear in December, many analysts wrote off the team’s rest of the season. But despite the injuries, Nick Foles led the Eagles to two wins in a row and the Super Bowl.
In 2005, the Eagles won the NFC championship after beating the Atlanta Falcons. In Super Bowl XXXIX, they lost to the New England Patriots, but a win in Super Bowl LII was enough to win the ring for the Philadelphia Eagles. A Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl ring is a great achievement for the entire NFL, and they are definitely worthy of the praise. When they’ve won the Super Bowl, they’ve become the first NFC team to win the title three times in a row.
Chicago Bears run similar play
The Eagles and Chicago Bears have both run similar plays. The Bears used a throwback play from their regular season game against the Eagles last year. Both teams ran a similar play in their NFC Championship game. The Eagles’ version was run by tight end Trey Burton, who was used as the trigger man, while the Bears’ version was run by converted quarterback Cam Meredith.
Earlier this season, the Chicago Bears ran a play similar to the Philadelphia Eagles’ “Philly Special” to score a touchdown. The Eagles had been 3-13 and were looking for a way to turn the ball over. But the Eagles’ version was more successful. As a result, they won the Super Bowl. In the 2016 game, they ran a play very similar to the Philadelphia Eagles’ “Philly Special” that the Eagles ran the previous year.

The Philly Eagles’ defense is suspect, but it still has the ability to create big plays. Chicago has an all-pro cornerback in Eddie Jackson, and the Bears’ secondary is still suspect. Chicago will try to capitalize on the Eagles’ mistakes. They’ve scored six defensive touchdowns this year. That’s why they’re favored to win the Super Bowl. However, the Bears should be cautious when calling plays like that.
The Chicago Bears’ offense is not as good as the Philadelphia Eagles’. The team’s offensive line has struggled to protect Foles and open holes for the Titans’ rushing attack. The starting center was in his fourth career, and he was only one of four starters in his career before the game. But despite the inexperience, Foles still has the leadership qualities necessary to lead the team to glory.
The Chicago Bears run similar plays in the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl. The Eagles favored running back Jordan Howard, who had 511 yards on 120 carries and three touchdowns. The Eagles’ defense has a top-five rushing defense, and the Eagles’ defense had four Pro Bowlers. The Bears also got great sacks from Fletcher Cox and Michael Bennett.
North Carolina Tar Heels run similar play
The North Carolina Tar Heels ran a play similar to the Philly Special on third-and-goal from the three-yard line. The Tar Heels rolled up a big third-down gain and scored two touchdowns. A new set was run by the Tar Heels, and multiple players shifted from their usual spots on the line to open up more space on the field.
After an outstanding season at South View High School, Wall led the Tigers to the state 4-A championship, beating West Charlotte High School 10-7. He became the most prolific player in the NCAA tournament and the Tar Heels’ hero. He scored the game-winning goal in overtime to lead the Tar Heels to their first national championship in 43 years. The Tar Heels’ run game was strong enough to defeat Clemson, but the Tigers’ defense was resilient enough to shut them down and force overtime.
The play was not as successful against Temple, but it was impressive nonetheless. The offense had to be better in order to score touchdowns, and it was a problem all year. The defense should emphasize missed tackles in preseason and the game to fix this problem. This could be the difference between victory and defeat. This play was similar to Temple’s run in the Philly special.
The new North Carolina Tar Heels coach, Mack Brown, is confident in his team’s ability to win the game. Breschi was raised in Baltimore, and is a Ravens fan. The team went to the Super Bowl in 2000, beating the New York Giants. The new coach was confident in his team’s chances of advancing to the national championship. They will have a big home crowd to cheer on their team, and the former players will be able to meet and greet with their old friends.
