Kurtenbach: Nick Foles’ Eagles gave us a sneak preview of the NFL’s future

Nick Foles won a Super Bowl on Sunday.

It’s going to take some time for that sentence to fully process, but it’s true: Nick Foles just led the Eagles to a Super Bowl victory.

As a quarterback.

In a league with 31 other teams.

And he beat Tom Brady in the championship game.

What just happened?

Befuddlement aside, I should present a caveat — while Foles being the Super Bowl MVP surprised everyone, including himself no doubt, he did not win Super Bowl LII by himself.

No, it took a balanced and tremendously talented team and pliable and fearless coaching to give Philadelphia it’s first Super Bowl win.
