Patriots, Eagles Headed To Super Bowl

Last updated on Monday, January 22, 2018

(UNDATED) - The Super Bowl 52 matchup is set as the New England Patriots will face the Philadelphia Eagles on February 4 from U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

The Patriots rallied past a scrappy Jacksonville Jaguars team 24-20 in the AFC Championship with Tom Brady throwing a pair of touchdowns to Danny Amendola in the fourth quarter. Brady finished 290 yards passing and two touchdowns. It will be the eighth Super Bowl appearance in the Brady-Bill Belichick era.

In the NFC Championship, the Eagles blew out the Minnesota Vikings 38-7. Minnesota struck pay dirt on their opening drive but it was all Philly after that as Nick Foles threw for 352 yards and three touchdowns. Wide receiver Alshon Jeffery hauled in five catches for 85 yards and two touchdowns.
