Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady shared a tribute to his longtime former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick following the team’s announcement to part ways with the six-time Super Bowl champion.

“I’m incredibly grateful to have played for the best coach in the history of the NFL,” Brady wrote in an Instagram post. “He was a great leader for the organization, and for all of the players who played for him. We accomplished some amazing things over a long period of time, many of which will be hard to replicate. He worked every day to help us achieve the ultimate goal, in the ultimate team sport.”  

“He set the tone for the organization, to never Falter in the face of adversity, and to do what we could do, and what was in our control, which was to go out and DO OUR JOB.” 

“I could never have been the player I was without you Coach Belichick. I am forever grateful. And I wish you the best of luck in whatever you choose next.” 

Christian McCaffrey scored his second touchdown on a 6-yard run with  1:07 to play, and the San Francisco 49ers mounted their first second-half comeback of the season to beat the Green Bay Packers 24-21 in a divisional-round playoff game on Saturday night.

After spending all regular season as front-runners, the Niners (13-5) needed to come from behind for a change, and Brock Purdy and McCaffrey did just enough on the last drive to send San Francisco to its third straight NFC championship game.

Purdy went 6 for 7 for 47 yards on the decisive drive, converting a third down to Brandon Aiyuk and then a 17-yarder to Chris Conley.

McCaffrey finished it off with his run on third-and-short and the 49ers’ defense held on from there, with Dre Greenlaw intercepting Jordan Love for the second time to seal San Francisco’s fifth straight playoff win over Green Bay (10-9).

The Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a massive contract extension for star quarterback Jalen Hurts, giving him a new deal for five years and a whopping $255 million, according to multiple reports, making him the highest-paid player in NFL history at an average of $51 million per year.

The contract includes $179.3 million in guarantees and a no-trade clause.

Hurts, 24, had a dominant season for the Eagles in 2022, helping lead Philadelphia to the Super Bowl.

The NFC Pro Bowler passed for 3,701 yards, 22 touchdowns and six interceptions in the regular season, while also adding 760 yards rushing and 13 TDs on the ground.

The Alabama and Oklahoma product also had a sensational Super Bowl, completing 71 percent of his passes for 301 yards and a touchdown with no turnovers in the game – which the Eagles barely lost to the Chiefs, 38-35.

The Philadelphia Eagles are going to the playoffs, but their late-season swoon continued with a listless performance at MetLife Stadium losing to the New York Giants 27-10 in Week 18. 

The Giants jumped out to an early lead and then coasted as the Eagles ruled out injured players and pulled other regulars with an eye on next weekend’s playoff game in Tampa.

The Giants win moved them to 6-11 on the season. That matters for draft positioning, but more short-term attention will be paid to the Eagles’ side of things, who finish 11-6.

Saquon Barkley’s two first-half touchdown runs and a touchdown pass from Tyrod Taylor to Darius Slayton helped the Giants into a 24-0 halftime lead. The Eagles, having already lost AJ Brown to injury, opted to give up on the possibility of a comeback as they rested key starters like quarterback Jalen Hurts and center Jason Kelce.

The Eagles — subsequently led by backup quarterback Marcus Mariota — finally got on the board with a field goal late in the third quarter, then cut the lead to 24-10 on a Mariota to Quez Watkins touchdown pass with 10 minutes remaining, but a Mason Crosby field goal on New York’s next drive with under four minutes to go made the game a three-possession gap once again to effectively ice it.
