team last season and had thought about quitting at one point. >> couple years ago there was a time where i was thinking about hanging up the cleats. and i think as people we deal with struggles and that was a moment in my life where i thought about it and i prayed about it and i'm grateful we made this decision to come back and play. >> foles is super bowl mvp. and also the only player to throw and catch touchdowns in the same super bowl game. the trick play gave philadelphia a 10-point lead at half time. and the patriots attempted a very similar play. only brady dropped the ball. >> oh! giselle once complained that tom can't throw and catch the ball after they lost their previous super bowl. so he tried. it didn't necessarily play out. they'll be heading back to philadelphia where it's a little bit warmer than things were in minneapolis. at least there was no snow
