Super Bowl Lii SE SOLICITA SU DIFUSIÓN 29/01/18 NOTAS DEL SUPER BOWL LII SUPER BOWL LII: PHILADELPHIA EAGLES VS. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS Dos equipos. Un partido. Todo se reduce a esto. El domingo, 4 de febrero, los Philadelphia Eagles y los New England Patriots se encontrarán en el Super Bowl LII (6:30 PM, hora de New York, NBC) que tendrá lugar en el estadio U.S. Bank Stadium de Minnesota. El Super Bowl LII tendrá al preclasificado Nº 1 de cada conferencia: los campeones de la NFC Eagles contra los campeones de la AFC Patriots. También será la revancha del Super Bowl XXXIX, cuando New England derrotó a Philadelphia 24-21 el 6 de febrero de 2005 en Jacksonville. Este es el tercer Super Bowl en el que ambos equipos están entre los mejores cinco tanto en puntos anotados como en menor cantidad de puntos permitidos (Super Bowls IV y XIII). Los Eagles fueron terceros en puntos anotados (28.57 puntos por partido) y cuarto en puntos contra (18.4), mientras que los Patriots se ubicaron segundos en puntos anotados (28.63) y quinto en puntos en contra (18.5). Los Eagles llegaron al Super Bowl con un triunfo 38-7 sobre Minnesota en el Juego de Campeonato de la NFC. Philadelphia, que anotó los últimos 38 puntos en el triunfo sobre los Vikings, se convirtió en el tercer equipo en enfilar hacia el Super Bowl con una seguidilla de al menos 38 puntos. Philadelphia clasificó al Super Bowl por tercera vez en la historia de la franquicia (1980 y 2004) y los Eagles están buscando el primer título de Super Bowl del equipo. Los Eagles, liderados por el entrenador en jefe de segundo año DOUG PEDERSON, empataron una marca de franquicia con las 13 victorias logradas en la temporada regular (2004) y fueron los preclasificados Nº 1 en la NFC por cuarta ocasión desde 2002. El de los Eagles, que completaron un resurgimiento de “peor a primero”, es el primer equipo desde los New Orleans Saints de 2009 en ganar su división la temporada siguiente a haber finalizado último o empatando esa posición y clasificar al Super Bowl. “Es una sensación increíble ir al Super Bowl”, dice Pederson. “Amo entrenar este equipo de fútbol americano. Amo entrenar a estos jugadores. Lo bueno acerca de este equipo es que, a pesar de toda la adversidad que rodea al equipo, estos muchachos no hacen caso a nada. Yo mismo no lo hago. Vienen a trabajar y practican duro cada día. Les encanta estar juntos. Uno de nuestros objetivos fue ser campeones de la NFC y representar a la NFC en el Super Bowl. Y ahora tenemos nuestro trabajo para nosotros solos. Vamos a ir al Super Bowl y aún tenemos algunas cosas que atender delante de nosotros.” El mariscal de campo de Philadelphia NICK FOLES completó 26 de 33 pases (el 78.8 por ciento) para 352 yardas, con tres anotaciones, ninguna intercepción e índice de pasador de 141.4 en la victoria en el Juego de Campeonato de la NFC. Foles es el único mariscal de campo en la historia de la NFL en registrar un índice de pasador de 100 o más en cada una de sus primeras tres titularidades en postemporada en su carrera (mínimo de 20 intentos por partido). En la postemporada de este año, completó 49 de 63 pases (el 77.8 por ciento) para 598 yardas, con tres anotaciones, ninguna intercepción y un índice de pasador de 122.1. Foles, que se alzó con la titularidad al reemplazar al lesionado mariscal de campo de Pro Bowl CARSON WENTZ, es apenas el último mariscal de campo en la era del Super Bowl en ganar dos partidos de postemporada tras haber tenido tres o menos titularidades en la temporada regular. Los otros tres mariscales de campo en lograr tal hazaña son DOUG WILLIAMS (Redskins de 1987), JEFF HOSTETLER (Giants de 1990) y FRANK REICH (Bills de 1992). Reich actualmente es el coordinador ofensivo de Philadelphia. El corredor de los Eagles LE GARRETTE BLOUNT, que acarreó una anotación en ambos juegos de postemporada esta temporada, tiene 10 acarreos anotadores en postemporada en su carrera, la mayor cantidad entre los jugadores activos. El corredor JAY AJAYI lideró el equipo en yardas terrestres en ambas victorias del club en postemporada. Los Eagles se ubicaron terceros en la NFL esta temporada promediando 132.2 yardas por tierra por partido. El receptor de Philadelphia ALSHON JEFFERY tuvo dos recepciones anotadoras en el Juego de Campeonato de la NFC y el receptor TORREY SMITH agregó una recepción anotadora. El ala cerrada de los Eagles ZACH ERTZ lideró el equipo con ocho recepciones y 93 yardas recibiendo contra los Vikings. Foles se convirtió en el primer mariscal de campo en la historia de la NFL con pases completos de al menos 40 yardas a tres receptores distintos en un solo partido de postemporada: Jeffery (53 yardas), NELSON AGHOLOR (42) y Smith (41). Adicionalmente, Foles se conectó con Ertz en una jugada aérea de 36 yardas. El esquinero de los Eagles PATRICK ROBINSON tuvo una anotación mediante retorno de intercepción de 50 yardas en el Juego de Campeonato de la NFC, la primera intercepción de su carrera en postemporada. El ala defensiva novato de Philadelphia DEREK BARNETT, selección de primera vuelta del equipo en el Sorteo Universitario de la NFL 2017 (Nº 14 total), tuvo una captura y forzó un balón suelto, que fue recuperado por el ala defensiva CHRIS LONG. Long y Blount fueron integrantes del equipo de New England la temporada pasada, en la que ganaron el Super Bowl LI. “Tenemos grandes jugadores y entrenadores en este vestidor y sabía que éramos capaces de competir para esto”, dice Long. “Nos hemos ganado esta oportunidad pero eso es todo. Tenemos todavía un montón de trabajo por hacer.” Philadelphia tuvo seis jugadores seleccionados al Pro Bowl 2018: el guardia BRANDON BROOKS, el tackle defensivo FLETCHER COX, el ala cerrada Ertz, el profundo MALCOLM JENKINS, el tackle LANE JOHNSON y el mariscal de campo Wentz. Los Patriots clasificaron a su décimo Super Bowl, una marca de la NFL, tras haber derrotado a Jacksonville 24-20 en el Juego de Campeonato de la AFC. New England, que ganó el Super Bowl LI, está procurando repetir el título de campeón del Super Bowl por segunda ocasión en la historia de la franquicia (XXXVIII y XXXIX). El entrenador en jefe de los Patriots BILL BELICHICK y su mariscal de campo TOM BRADY estarán realizando su octava aparición en el Super Bowl juntos, la mayor cantidad de partidos por el título de la NFL por cualquier dúo de entrenador en jefe y mariscal de campo titular en la historia de la liga. Belichick y Brady ganaron cinco Super Bowls juntos, la mayor cantidad por una combinación de entrenador en jefe y mariscal de campo titular. “Ansías estos momentos y oportunidades”, dice Brady. “Sé que hemos tenido algunos como éstos, por lo que hemos sido bendecidos. Ha sido simplemente una carrera increíble y creo que todos deberían estar orgullosos de lo que hemos logrado. Estoy orgulloso de nuestro equipo. Ha sido un gran año y sería realmente enorme si podemos ocuparnos de lo que nos corresponde en el próximo partido.” Belichick lideró a los Patriots a cinco títulos del Super Bowl, la mayor cantidad en la historia de la NFL. Con una victoria en el Super Bowl LII, Belichick superará al miembro del Salón de la Fama VINCE LOMBARDI y empatará a los miembros del Salón de la Fama GEORGE HALAS y CURLY LAMBEAU con las mayores cantidades de campeonatos de la NFL (seis) en la historia de la liga. Brady, que estará realizando la octava titularidad de su carrera en el Super Bowl, una marca de la NFL, es el único mariscal de campo titular en la historia de la liga en ganar cinco Super Bowls y el único jugador en la historia en ser nombrado Jugador más valioso (MVP, por sus siglas en inglés) del Super Bowl cuatro veces (XXXVI, XXXVIII, XLIX y LI). Brady, que el año pasado estableció una marca del Super Bowl con 466 yardas aéreas, es el líder histórico en el Super Bowl en yardas aéreas (2,071), pases completos (207), pases intentados (309) y pases anotadores (15). Es también el líder en victorias (27), pases completos (892), pases intentados (1,416), yardas aéreas (9,721) y pases anotadores (68) por un mariscal de campo titular en la postemporada de la NFL. En el Juego de Campeonato de la AFC, los Patriots se sobrepusieron a una desventaja de 10 puntos en el último período (20-10), cuando Brady lanzó dos pases anotadores al receptor DANNY AMENDOLA para quedarse con la victoria. Belichick y Brady ganaron cuatro juegos de postemporada en los que los Patriots estuvieron debajo en el marcado por al menos 10 puntos en el último período, la mayor cantidad en la historia de la NFL por una combinación de entrenador en jefe y mariscal de campo. Ningún otro dúo logró tal hazaña más de una vez. Los Patriots se sobrepusieron a una desventaja de 19 puntos en el cuarto periodo (28-9) al ganar el Super Bowl LI la temporada pasada. “Todos creemos uno en el otro”, dice el profundo DEVIN MC COURTY. “Este equipo está probado en la batalla. Hemos pasados por altos y bajos. Hemos pasado por la adversidad. Tienes que seguir jugando. Cuando tienes una fundación en la que apoyarte, no entras en pánico. Entiendes y crees uno en el otro y te das a ti mismo una oportunidad de ganar.” El corredor de los Patriots JAMES WHITE, que registró tres anotaciones (dos acarreando, una recibiendo) en el Super Bowl LI, logró seis anotaciones (cuatro acarreando, dos recibiendo) en sus últimos tres partidos de postemporada.

Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.

  • Eagles' Team Travel
    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn PHILADELPHIA EAGLES Team History The Eagles have been a Philadelphia institution since their beginning in 1933 when a syndicate headed by the late Bert Bell and Lud Wray purchased the former Frankford Yellowjackets franchise for $2,500. In 1941, a unique swap took place between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh that saw the clubs trade home cities with Alexis Thompson becoming the Eagles owner. In 1943, the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh franchises combined for one season due to the manpower shortage created by World War II. The team was called both Phil-Pitt and the Steagles. Greasy Neale of the Eagles and Walt Kiesling of the Steelers were co-coaches and the team finished 5-4-1. Counting the 1943 season, Neale coached the Eagles for 10 seasons and he led them to their first significant successes in the NFL. Paced by such future Pro Football Hall of Fame members as running back Steve Van Buren, center-linebacker Alex Wojciechowicz, end Pete Pihos and beginning in 1949, center-linebacker Chuck Bednarik, the Eagles dominated the league for six seasons. They finished second in the NFL Eastern division in 1944, 1945 and 1946, won the division title in 1947 and then scored successive shutout victories in the 1948 and 1949 championship games. A rash of injuries ended Philadelphia’s era of domination and, by 1958, the Eagles had fallen to last place in their division. That year, however, saw the start of a rebuilding program by a new coach, Buck Shaw, and the addition of quarterback Norm Van Brocklin in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams.

So, we'll just keep fighting.” The Patriots are the fourth defending Super Bowl champion to start a season 10-0, joining Green Bay (13-0 in 2011), Denver (13-0 in 1998) and San Francisco (10-0 in 1990). This weekend, New England can clinch its seventh consecutive division title, which would tie the 1973-79 Los Angeles Rams for the longest streak in NFL history. The Patriots will travel to Denver to face the Broncos in a battle of first-place teams in primetime on Sunday Night Football (8:30 PM ET, NBC). The Patriots, who also won five consecutive division titles from 2003-2007, are the only team in NFL history to win 11 division championships in a 12-year span.
