Their star quarterback was out with a season-ending knee injury. Five-time Super Bowl champions the New England Patriots towered over them. But public opinion didn't matter to the Philadelphia Eagles. They believed in each other. The band of Christian brothers on the team believed in the God of the impossible, and they played for an audience of One.\u003cbr\u003eThe most extensive book to explore the Christian faith shared by many of the team's players, Birds of Pray details the incredible inside story behind the Eagles' capture of the biggest prize in professional sports: the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Through exclusive interviews with the players, never-before-seen photos, and insider accounts of the miracle season's most memorable moments, Philly native and Associated Press sportswriter Rob Maaddi reveals a side of the team the world has yet to fully witness.\u003cbr\u003eFrom an impromptu baptism in the team's cold tub to weekly Bible studies and pre-game prayers, to the unique friendship between star quarterback Carson Wentz and back-up-then-MVP Nick Foles - the Eagles excel in the unexpected. Birds of Pray follows the deep faith shared among players, the high stakes they faced together, and their relentless reliance on Christ who gives all strength in moments of crisis and celebration alike. The result is a boldly inspiring, entertaining read that will challenge readers to go deeper in their faith, dream bigger, and live with renewed courage for whatever odds life stacks against them.","brand":"Zondervan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49846427418909,"sku":"9780310355854","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/13213123482298.jpg?v=1752598879"},{"product_id":"cold-night-in-february","title":"Cold Night in February","description":"","brand":"Bookbaby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50069254177053,"sku":"9798350984033","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9798350984033.jpg?v=1750088914"},{"product_id":"bandana-express-the-true-story-of-the-1980-giles-spartans","title":"Bandana Express The True Story of the 1980 Giles Spartans","description":"","brand":"Koehler Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50069267054877,"sku":"25-M07-WK4-9798888247716","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9798888247716.jpg?v=1750089372"},{"product_id":"boys-of-riverside-a-deaf-football-team-and-a-quest-for-glory","title":"Boys of Riverside A Deaf Football Team and a Quest for Glory","description":"","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50069424636189,"sku":"9780593471142","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9780593471142.jpg?v=1750092207"},{"product_id":"football-with-wings-the-tactical-concepts-behind-the-red-bull-game-model","title":"Football with Wings The Tactical Concepts Behind the Red Bull Game Model","description":"","brand":"Pitch Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50069610823965,"sku":"25-M06-WK4-9781801500753","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9781801500753.jpg?v=1750094877"},{"product_id":"academy","title":"Academy","description":"","brand":"First Touch Books for Young Readers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50069987655965,"sku":"9781955804196","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9781955804196.jpg?v=1751403645"},{"product_id":"great-rivalries-in-college-football-gridiron-feuds-of-all-ncaa-divisions","title":"Great Rivalries in College Football Gridiron Feuds of All NCAA Divisions","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[This work provides more than 400 detailed listings of current and past NCAA football rivalries, covering all NCAA Divisions: Division I (FBS and FCS), Division II, and Division III.

Seven decades later, he still does. Rockne created the image of Notre Dame, then a small Catholic university in a remote town in northern Indiana, as the premier college football program in the nation. But it was Leahy who secured that image, with six undefeated seasons and four national championships in an 11-season span. By achievement alone, Leahy should be as beloved as Rockne, who nearly a century after his tragic death remains a legend. Yet Leahy is virtually forgotten today, in many ways a victim of his own insatiable need to compete and win.\u003cbr\u003e           The University of Notre Dame granted Ivan Maisel rare and complete access to its voluminous cache of historical material, and Maisel has the cooperation of Leahy's family, enabling him to tell the rich story of an archetypal coach who was a celebrity in his day. Leahy made the cover of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eTime\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e magazine and befriended presidents and movie stars alike. Leahy brought innovation to a program reluctant to change anything Rockne had done. But Leahy rankled opposing coaches and clashed with the priests at Notre Dame who sought to make the university as elite in academia as it had become on the field. These conflicts, coupled with the toll that Leahy‚Äôs innate drive demanded of his health, brought his career to a premature end, hampering his legacy in the years to come. And what a legacy: only Nick Saban and Bear Bryant have won more national titles. The records of iconic coaches such as Bobby Bowden, Woody Hayes, and Eddie Robinson pale in comparison. Not only the Notre Dame fanbase but all college football fans will be hungry to rediscover a man and an era, the story of how Frank Leahy cemented Notre Dame‚Äôs status as the defining program of college football.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\" style=\"opacity: 1; display: block;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-content-fade\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"javascript:void(0)\" role=\"button\" data-action=\"a-expander-toggle\" class=\"a-declarative\" data-a-expander-toggle='{\"allowLinkDefault\":true, \"expand_prompt\":\"Read more\", \"collapse_prompt\":\"Read less\"}'\u003e\u003ci class=\"a-icon a-icon-extender-expand\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50223986278685,"sku":"9780306835780","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9780306835780.jpg?v=1754333535"},{"product_id":"brady-vs-belichick-the-dynasty-debate","title":"Brady vs. Belichick: The Dynasty Debate","description":"\u003cdiv data-a-expander-name=\"book_description_expander\" data-a-expander-collapsed-height=\"280\" class=\"a-expander-collapsed-height a-row a-expander-container a-spacing-base a-expander-partial-collapse-container\" style=\"max-height: none; height: 280px;\"\u003e \u003cdiv data-expanded=\"false\" class=\"a-expander-content a-expander-partial-collapse-content\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eA unique and unparalleled look into the nature and relationship of two of the pillars in the NFL's greatest dynasty.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The greatest dynasty in NFL history stood on two pillars ‚Äì Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.
