Countdown to Kickoff
The time for talking, at least publicly, has come and gone. Up next for the Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots is Super Bowl LII on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minn.
The Eagles arrived in Minnesota the previous Sunday. The Patriots touched down one day later, with both teams hitting the ground running for Opening Night on Monday.
The teams made players and coaches available to the media on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. But since then, it's been radio silence, except for Radio Row, which has been a hotbed activity all week, with current and former players stopping to talk shop to The No-Huddle Show Podcast.
Just call NJ Advance Media one-stop shopping for all things Super Bowl. Our team of reporters arrived in Minnesota on Sunday, and will be there until after the Patriots or Eagles are presented with the Lombardi Trophy for winning Super Bowl LII. Will Nick Foles and the underdog Eagles shock the world and win the first Super Bowl in team history? Or Will Tom Brady cement his place as the G.O.A.T. by teaming with Bill Belichick on a record-tying sixth Super Bowl title?
Count down to kickoff by looking back at the week that was in Minneapolis, through the cameras of our intrepid reporters on the scene: Eliot Shorr-Parks, Matt Lombardo, Dan Duggan, Steve Politi, and Andy Mills.
