A throwback pass to Nick Foles in February helped the Philadelphia Eagles win a Super Bowl. A throwback pass to Nick Foles on Thursday night helped the Eagles beat the Atlanta Falcons.While the iconic fourth down play from Super Bowl LII was dubbed “Philly Special

It was a copy of the same play that the New England Patriots ran against them when a pass intended for Tom Brady caromed off his fingertips harmlessly for an incompletion.“That’s where we got it from,” Pederson said. “We just put different people in the game. They were in (one running back, one tight end) personnel. We were in (one running back

Youth Keanu Neal Jersey , a 1-yard run by Jay Ajayi.A reminder that the Atlanta Falcons will wear throwback uniforms this Sunday If you’re a fan of the old Atlanta Falcons logo, or just the uniforms the team wore in the 90s, you’re in luck. They’re bringing those back this weekend against the Bengals. Per the mothership’s Matthew Tabeek, the Falcons will rock their excellent throwbacks a grand total of three times this year in home games. There has been a furious clamoring for the Falcons to change things up for several years now, though there’s some division on whether the Falcons should go back to these
Robert Alford Jersey , the really old school red uniforms with the old logo, or the Michael Vick-era all-black uniforms. All are fine choices, but I find myself being more and more partial to this particular getup. The Falcons will also put on the old uniforms, which are notable for their excellence and why can’t we have the old logo back please, in both Week 7 against the Giants and Week 11 against the Cowboys
Authentic Matt Bosher Jersey , which are shaping up to be two of the easier matchups of the year. May the Falcons be undefeated in their rightful jerseys.
