PHILADELPHIA -- With his offense struggling, Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson dusted off the most iconic play call in franchise history, "Philly Special", and got the spark he was looking for.
Nick Foles was not his Super Bowl self in the first half against the Atlanta Falcons Thursday night. He averaged just 3.6 yards per pass attempt, and the offense was out-gained by Falcons receiver Julio Jones 89-68 over the first two quarters.
Needing to inject some life into the unit, Pederson dialed up the play that has come to define the Eagles' Super Bowl win over the New England Patriots.
