If there's one play that we'll be watching for the rest of time from Super Bowl 52, we think that play would be Nick Foles' touchdown reception.

 

The Eagles could have kicked a field goal on 4th and goal and went into halftime with a six-point lead, but Doug Pederson wanted to be aggressive and that trick play in the biggest game of the year was as aggressive as it gets.

What makes the call even better is that it was actually Foles who suggested the play when Pederson called a timeout. 

 

You have to have complete trust in your quarterback in that situation to go along with a play call like that and clearly Pederson did.  

Foles came through with the soft hands and it gave the Eagles a larger lead heading into half which, as it turned out, they needed as the Patriots came all the way back to take the lead in the 4th.  Foles delivered again, though, and did what nobody thought was possible before the game.
