Atlanta Falcons vs Philadelphia Eagles: Champions hoping Nick Foles can rediscover Super Bowl-winning form
Philadelphia waited 51 years for the Eagles to deliver a Super Bowl crown. Now the hope heading into the new NFL season - which starts on Thursday night at home to the Atlanta Falcons - is that a second title will immediately follow. Back in February the Eagles, led by back-up quarterback Nick Foles, pulled off an upset victory over Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. And they did it with some swagger, the highlight being a trick play before the half-time interval which resulted in Foles catching a touchdown pass - rather than his everyday job of throwing one - against a defence masterminded by arguably the greatest defensive minds the sport has ever seen, New England head coach Bill Belichick. Foles' career-high moment in Minneapolis came at the expense of premier Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, who prior to tearing his ACL in December was on track for an MVP season given his remarkable form: 33 touchdown passes and only seven interceptions. … [Read more...] about Atlanta Falcons vs Philadelphia Eagles: Champions hoping Nick Foles can rediscover Super Bowl-winning form

Aden Durde joins the Atlanta Falcons to become the NFL’s first British coach
Aden Durde can handle waiting a few more days ahead of the big announcement. The American Football coach, sat in the NFL’s UK office in London, has been building towards this moment for years, travelling back and forth between his north London home and United States on a run of internships to increase his experience of coaching in the billion dollar league. On Tuesday the Atlanta Falcons confirmed that Durde, 37, will join the franchise as their new "defensive quality control" coach ahead of the 2018 season, making Durde the first ever British coach to work full-time in the NFL. Born in Palmers Green in North London, Durde’s evolution into a linebackers coach, the heart of the defence renowned for their tackling, seems obvious when you consider his first memory of American Football centres on one of the most imposing defences in the sport's history. “I remember a poster in my brothers’ room when I was about seven of the … [Read more...] about Aden Durde joins the Atlanta Falcons to become the NFL’s first British coach
