Overview

For long-suffering fans of the Philadelphia Eagles, the 2002 signing of Villanova football star Brian Westbrook seemed unlikely to change things. The Eagles had not reached the Super Bowl since 1981; season after season ended in crushing disappointment. But Brian and had other plans. Even before he became a starter, the compact but sturdy running back was faking out defenses, breaking tackles, and helping his team pull victory from the jaws of defeat. Then, in early 2005, Brian and quarterback Donovan McNabb took the Birds to the Super Bowl, where they met the mighty New England Patriots.
