Nick Foles couldn’t resist a quick jab at Tom Brady on Sunday night.
Honestly, after the Philadelphia Eagles' dominant 40-22 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, he probably wasn't going to get a better time.
It's really cool that Tom Brady got to be there for the Eagles' two Super Bowl wins! He might be a good luck charm.

Have a great night!
"It's really cool that Tom Brady got to be there for the Eagles' two Super Bowl wins!" Foles wrote. "He might be a good luck charm."
Foles, of course, beat Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII in 2018. Foles was the Super Bowl MVP in that win despite starting the season as Carson Wentz’s backup, though he led the team the rest of the way after Wentz went down with an injury late in the year.
That win over Brady and the Patriots was the first Super Bowl title in Eagles history.
Then on Sunday, the Eagles rolled over the Chiefs at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans to grab their second title. Though Brady is now retired, he was in the booth calling the game with Kevin Burkhardt on Fox. It wrapped up Brady's first season in his massive 10-year deal with Fox.
So Brady was not only in the building, but still played a not-so-insignificant part in the game.
There are plenty of things to point to when it comes to the Chiefs' championship season. Saquon Barkley set multiple records all year long, and quarterback Jalen Hurts led them to an NFC East title before picking up Super Bowl MVP honors. Brady had nothing to do with that.
But the Eagles have a perfect 2-0 record in the Super Bowl when Brady is in the building. That's a fact that can't be argued with.
The next time they reach the big game, Eagles ownership better find a way to get Brady there.
