PHILADELPHIA -- When you play the New England Patriots, you're taking on not just a team, but a mystique.
Tom Brady. Bill Belichick. Five Lombardi Trophies. Two decades worth of dominance. It's the elephant in the room, and Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson addressed it on Thursday.
"That's obviously a real question, that's a real issue that you have," he said. "These guys have been there, they've done it, they've proven it time and time again. My biggest focus with the team is let's just focus on today, let's just win today, let's get better today, and we'll worry about that when we get to the game.
