Greatest Plays in Philadelphia Eagles Football History
Greatest Plays in Philadelphia Eagles Football History | Reuben Frank, Mark Eckel
6 posts
For serious football fans wanting to relive the most unforgettable, extraordinary, and gut-wrenching moments in Philadelphia Eagles history, this account explores the team's greatest plays, providing context, back story, relevant circumstances, and comments from those directly involved ineach play. Photos help reanimate memories, including the fourth-and-26 conversion that stunned the Packers in the 2003 playoffs, Eric Allen's weaving 94-yard dash interception return against the Jets, and what actually happened between Chuck Bednarik and Jim Taylor in the final seconds of the 1960 NFL Championship Game."

#neighbors, part 3 😂. See earlier posts of tagged book if you‘ve missed the earlier displays. They changed out the display somewhat, and made a better looking replica of the trophy 😂. 🦅 Victory parade is today. Son texted me saying there were only two kids in his homeroom this AM.

Cinfhen Your neighbors are really getting creative 💚💚💚I still get emails from my kids school back in Philly...they were busing the kids to the parade today!!!!! Just needed to sign the permission slip 😂 6y
imabusybee Thats awesome 6y
Leftcoastzen That replica a huge improvement! An amazing journey for the Eagles and the fans. 6y

raelaschoenherr I live in Minneapolis, and things sure were crazy the last few weeks! 6y
the-flashley Oh my gosh, I live in North Carolina and I‘m surprised that MY neighbor didn‘t have this set up. She‘s a huge Eagles fan. She does have balloons, though. 😂 6y
mrp27 I'm not a football or Eagles fan but I love this! 6y
LeahBergen They‘re so hardcore 😂 6y
ValerieAndBooks @Cinfhen that‘s funny! Our school district did not give the kids the day off but a lot of teachers told the kids that today would not have any real lessons since it seemed like a lot were planning to go to the parade. So I suspect some of the kids who didn‘t show up actually just stayed home, knowing they wouldn‘t miss much. My son said they played games, etc today at school! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @imabusybee it‘s fun to round the corner and see what they come up with for the different holidays, etc! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @Leftcoastzen maybe they‘ll win again next year 😊! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @raelaschoenherr I can imagine!! It looked super cold there, too on the news (but that‘s Minnesota, right?) 6y
ValerieAndBooks @the-flashley is your neighbor from Pennsylvania? I wonder if it was hard for her to find Eagles balloons in NC! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @mrp27 same here, I keep sharing because I‘m impressed at their creativity 😂! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @LeahBergen I bet they were at the parade 😂! 6y
the-flashley @ValerieAndBooks She is! I‘m pretty sure our entire state is bandwagoning with the eagles now, so I‘m sure she didn‘t have too much trouble. 😂 6y
ValerieAndBooks @the-flashley who can resist such great underdogs 😂 ?! 6y
raelaschoenherr Haha, yep :) 4 degrees is cold but not anything all that crazy for MN in the winter. We could spot the out of towners pretty easily because they didn‘t have warm enough outerwear 😆 6y
ValerieAndBooks @raelaschoenherr and I bet especially the Eagles fans weren‘t as well prepared! Not as cold here generally compared to New England. 6y
raelaschoenherr I felt like it was mostly fancy New Yorkers or West Coast people thinking a pea coat and loafers was acceptable 😆 6y
ValerieAndBooks @raelaschoenherr I totally can believe that 😊 6y

Leftcoastzen I‘m so glad . Was tired of Pats. always winning ! 6y
DivineDiana Love this enthusiasm! Thanks for sharing! Just got back from Dick‘s for T-shirts. They opened at 6AM! 💚🦅💚 6y
Lynnsoprano That‘s fantastic! I just ordered a shirt for my husband to celebrate. @DivineDiana the Dick‘s here only ever has Dolphins gear. I always have to order anything Eagles. 6y
DivineDiana @Lynnsoprano There is free shipping now! 😀🦅 6y
LeahBergen Oh, man! 😂😂😂 6y
ValerieAndBooks @MicheleinPhilly Just saw the victory parade will be Thursday— more local excitement for you!! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @Cinfhen and they‘ve got to be dedicated fans, too — that took some time to make! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @CrowCAH yes, and a lot of aluminum foil 😂! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @Leftcoastzen I agree! I don‘t hate them or Tom Brady (who was at Michigan the same time my husband was working on his MBA there), but so nice to have a change, and our local underdogs winning! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @DivineDiana Almost everyone is wearing Eagles gear today, even my doctor and the staff were when I was there for my annual physical!! 6y
ValerieAndBooks @Lynnsoprano Your husband will wear his shirt with pride 😊! The game was more exciting than I expected, so my plan to finish The Essex Serpent fell by the wayside. I have about 50 pages left. How about you? 6y
Lynnsoprano @ValerieAndBooks I got nothing read yesterday, so I think you are ahead of me. I‘m just starting September. 6y

I get to use this night time pic of my #neighbors ‘ display for today‘s prompt! Perfect! I posted a daytime picture a while back. After I took this pic, they added a strobe light for extra special effects 😂 . I wonder which characters would be equivalent in Austen world.

#flyEaglesfly 🦅! It‘ll actually be very low-key here — poor hubby is quite sick 🤒 and he may not be up to watching the game.

megt So sorry to hear he isn‘t feeling well! Hope he gets better soon. 6y
ValerieAndBooks @DivineDiana @MicheleinPhilly @KVanRead @CrowCAH @LeahBergen @megt Thanks all! It was such a game that hubby managed to stay awake until the very end!! Wow! And my neighbors added more to the display— a giant replica of the Lombardi trophy 😂! I‘ll try to take a pic later today. 6y
DivineDiana So glad he rallied! I watched with my husband and it was an incredible game! Can‘t even believe I‘m saying that! 😲💚🦅👏🏻 6y

I only watch one televised football game a year: The Super Bowl. This house is the first as we enter my neighborhood and they always decorate for the holidays and the like. This time it‘s in honor of the Eagles 😂! Green floodlights were on in the evenings.

DivineDiana I‘m with you, but last night, I decided to join my dear husband and support his team. He was happy that I did, and I sure picked a great game to watch. What a quarterback! 👏🏻🦅👏🏻 6y
Cinfhen #GoEagles 🦅💚🏉my boys were up from 1:30am until 4:45am cheering on their beloved birds 🐦 @DivineDiana @ValerieAndBooks #HappyBirdWatchers 6y

Lynnsoprano Growing up in Bethlehem, I am a lifelong Eagles fan. The only time the tv went on the entire time our guests have been here was for the second half of Sunday‘s game😄 6y
ValerieAndBooks @Lynnsoprano Didn‘t realize (or forgot?) you were from PA! If you ever come back up this way, let me know 😊! 6y
