New England Patriots: Bill Belichick understands Chris Long leaving

"This is exciting for me", Brady told reporters Saturday.

During the Patriots' trip to Phoenix for Super Bowl XLIX against the Seahawks in 2015, the fire alarms in the team hotel sounded twice in three nights.

There is no arguing Brady's contributions to New England's unheard of run in the past two decades, but as football is a team sport, Brady cannot win all of those games alone. The Eagles have one of the deepest defensive-line rotations in the NFL. "They've obviously got a great system, great offense, probably the best quarterback of all time, a great tight end, speedy receivers".

Tom Brady wasn't present in the locker room, but did go on ESPN and said Gronkowski's presence is needed if the Patriots expect to play their best football to win their third Super Bowl title in four years.

With the Super Bowl in Minneapolis, the Vikings had a chance to become the first team ever to play the game in their home stadium, but the Eagles crushed those dreams in their dominating win.

The New England Patriots will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LII in a little over a week.

Stokes goes for £1.37m... Root snubbed
I've had a look at the English players who have been called up and assessed how well they'll get on in the tournament. Instead, it was Ben Stokes who franchises lined up to sign, landing the highest contract of any overseas player.

Autodesk (ADSK) Earns Daily Media Impact Score of 0.23
With an institutional ownership near 98.4%, it carries an earnings per share ratio of -2.57. (NASDAQ:EBAY) for 13,374 shares. It dropped, as 47 investors sold EBAY shares while 306 reduced holdings. 34 funds opened positions while 99 raised stakes.

Oh, and one more thing: The Eagles, like the Jets, wear green uniforms. There's one game to play. Atlanta bounced the Rams from the playoffs in the first round before losing to the Eagles in the Divisional Round, only to see Philadelphia make it all the way to the Super Bowl.

Tom Brady checks his hand before the AFC championship game between the New England Patriots and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

It is a rematch of Super Bowl XXXIX played in Jacksonville on February 5, 2005 and won by the Patriots, 24-21. "Really, the character and the work ethic, the camaraderie, just the commitment to the process that Coach (Doug Pederson) and our staff is always talking about". That's a lot of options for Nick Foles to choose from, and Pederson has shown the ability to game plan in a manner to make any or all of these players unsafe.

"It's a very disruptive group - hard to run against, hard to throw against, and they're well-coached". My biggest focus with the team is let's just focus on today. "It's about leaving my mark and legacy and being a Super Bowl champion". As fans, we should appreciate what they're doing and realize this could be the last time, although it appears that it will never end.

Considering the sad fact my pathetic New York Jets have not been in the game since 1969, you can understand why I normally don't get all that fired up for the Super Bowl.
