Miracle On Broad Street: For The First Time Ever, The 2024 Philadelphia Eagles Have Scored Points In The 1st Quarter

(yes, I'm aware Lincoln Financial Field isn't technically on Broad St.)

They said it could never be done! They said it simply wasn't possible! That the Philadelphia Eagles men's professional football team would go the rest of eternity without scoring a single point in the 1st quarter of a game. Week after week after week of heading into that 2nd quarter with a goose egg on the board...

Well just like the late great Kevin Garnett once said, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!!

Sure, the first drive of the game wasn't perfect. A couple missed passes, and a false start on 4th down that forced them to punt. But turns out it was the most important false start of the season. Because after the Eagles were forced to punt, Sydney Brown hauled his ass down field and made this massive play to pop the ball loose. 

That's our ball, ain't it. 

A couple plays later you have a perfect ball dropping right over Saquon's shoulder and into the back of the end zone. 1st quarter of a football game and the Eagles have put points on the board. You'll be telling your grandchildren about this play one day. 

P.S. -- Saquon scoring in his first game wearing the Kelly Greens was as big of a lock as they come. The man was born to wear Kelly Green.
