Who are we rooting for? Who can beat the Pats

This Philly team is the most under-the-radar 13-3 team of all-time. During the regular season, they were tied with NE for the best point differential (+162) in the entire NFL and they had both a top 5 offense and top 5 defense all year. They absolutely have a chance to beat New England.

I meant an upset against the Pats

Ahh, ok. Philly has a legit chance, IMO. 

Also, I always thought the home-field Superbowl thing was overrated, anyway. The super bowl tickets are always virtually evenly distributed among the two respective fan bases and the game would be played indoors. The notion that the Vikings would have had a "home game" is a fallacy.

They easily would have been 14-2 if they had not decided to sit starters and play their 3rd string qb against cowboys.

Jeff Hostetler was a 7-year backup bum. Depressed, discouraged, on the verge of retirement (just like Foles).

On Week 15 he replaced an injured Phil Simms (broken foot) and rode the Giants to victory in Super Bowl XXV against Marv Levy's Buffalo dynasty.

History repeats. If Hostetler can do it, Foles can do it.
