But the most important player in this Super Bowl is without a doubt Nick Foles. In his limited action this year he's shown flashes of his transcendent 2013 season, and also flickers of his dreadful 2015. If the former shows up on Sunday and the Eagles offense hums like it did in the NFC Championship, Philadelphia is probably favored to win this game. But we all know another side to Foles exists. And one bad turnover or quick three-and-out after a score could also seal the team's fate.
Whether he plays brilliantly or busts out, no player's performance on Sunday will be of more consequence than Nick Foles.
