Two years ago today, the Philadelphia Eagles shocked the world and toppled Tom Brady and the New England Patriots to capture the their first Super Bowl title in franchise history. That means today also marks the two-year anniversary of one of the greatest plays, considering the stakes, in NFL history: the "Philly Special." In honor of its improbable execution, let's relive the rollercoaster of emotions that transpired once tailback Corey Clement took a direct snap and proceeded to pitch the pigskin to tight end Trey Burton.

It's still just as electrifying.

Doug Pederson absolutely bamboozled Bill Belichick on this one after quarterback Nick Foles crept into the end zone with acres of real estate around him before hauling in Burton's heave. The score proved to be a pivotal one, as the Eagles took a 10-point lead into halftime.

This will forever be a trademark play in Super Bowl history, so enjoy it, Eagles fans.
