The offense had been stagnant nearly all game. But in the 4th quarter when they needed two scores to come from behind, he made the magic happen. He opened the 4th quarter with one drive that ended with a Quez Watkins TD. And then later in the quarter, with under 5 minutes to go, he led another. He ran it into the endzone himself to give the Eagles their first lead of the game. And with one 1:20 left on the clock.
And in honor of that drive, Andrew Salciunas wanted to celebrate the best game-winning drives in Eagles history. But with him out sick, Tom Alvord took his place and dived into the Vault for him. Tom came out with 6 great game-winning or in some cases game-tying, drives, and plays from Eagles history. And you can hear those drives, and Anthony's reactions, below.
