Saquon Barkley has a flair for the dramatic. Throughout his tenure with the New York Giants, his big-play potential captured the hearts of the nation’s largest city. When he joined the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason, he brought that swagger to a team already brimming with ambition.
And it has paid off. Now just weeks away from their second Super Bowl appearance in three years, Barkley’s Eagles face one final challenge to achieve their ultimate goal: hoisting the Lombardi Trophy.
As the team prepares for Super Bowl LIX against the reigning champion Kansas City Chiefs, let’s take a look back at how that swagger has defined their year—and how the Eagles’ content team has fueled the passion of one of the most fervent fanbases in North American sports.
The journey began long before the first kickoff in September. In May, the Eagles launched their season with a hilarious schedule release video. The concept? A psychological evaluation of their superfans. The skit’s "dramatic" undertone was amplified by the use of APM’s "I’m a Hero" track from the Royal Blood catalog.
When the Eagles took part in the NFL’s first-ever game in Brazil, they capitalized on the festivity with a hype video set to APM’s "Samba de Futbol," a vibrant Brazilian samba track. Featuring present-day stars and iconic players from the past, like Jason Kelce, the video amplifies the NFL’s effort to connect with a new market.
As the playoffs approached, the Eagles once again turned to APM for a pre-game drone show post. They selected a track from the Cezame Trailers library, known for it’s Hip-Hop fused trailer music. The show highlighted iconic Philly moments like Barkley’s now-famous "Reverse Hurdle," as well as the "The Brotherly Shove."
Now, the Eagles are just two weeks away from potentially capping their unforgettable season with an upset victory over the Chiefs. Such a win would not only mark the pinnacle of their season but also solidify Saquon Barkley’s legacy as one of the all-time greats. With a Super Bowl in sight, Philadelphia fans are ready to celebrate. The team's support has been powered in part by the Eagles’ content team, whose creative efforts have strengthened the bond between the team and its fans.
