Super Bowl LVII: Jalen Hurts leads Philadelphia fans in a raucous rendition of 'Fly Eagles Fly'

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts led teammates, fans, and even owner Jeffrey Lurie in a stirring – and somewhat tone deaf – rendition of the team's fight song following Sunday's NFC title game win over the visiting San Francisco 49ers.

'Fly, Eagles Fly,' the MVP candidate sang to the Lincoln Financial Field crowd following the 31-7 win. 'On the road to victory!'

The song was written in 1955 by Charles Borrelli and Richard Courtland Harrison, the latter of whom was an arranger for jazz guitarist Charlie Byrd. It's typically played at Eagles home games before the national anthem and after Philadelphia touchdowns.

Hurts was also seen gesturing and saying 'one more' after the win as the team advanced to Super Bowl LVII.  

Hurts drifted in and out of tune while signing the fight song on the stadium PA system, but still received applause, nonetheless. Even Lurie, a 71-year-old film producer in a suit, was seen singing and dancing during his quarterback's post-game performance.

Hurts had one of Philadelphia's four rushing touchdowns on Sunday.

The Eagles, who won the Super Bowl five years ago with a different coach and quarterback, will try to do it again behind the formidable duo of Hurts and coach Nick Sirianni. Philadelphia will play either the Cincinnati Bengals or former Eagles coach Andy Reid's Kansas City Chiefs.

'Obviously this is something you dream about as a kid. All these guys on the team have dreamt about this their entire lives, too,' Sirianni said. 'Just to be able to do this together with a bunch of men that love each other, that are connected to each other, that will do anything for each other is pretty sweet.'

Miles Sanders ran for two touchdowns and linebacker Haason Reddick made the hit that forced 49ers rookie quarterback Brock Purdy out of the game with an elbow injury. Reddick also recovered a fumble by Purdy's replacement, Josh Johnson, who later suffered a concussion.

That forced Purdy back into the game, but his injury was clearly a factor as the 49ers all but gave up on throwing the ball, even while trailing by multiple scores.

Philadelphia police greased traffic and light poles in what has often proved a futile attempt to slow the revelry ahead. But a city that has been starved for a championship now has its beloved Birds in the Super Bowl just three months after the Philadelphia Phillies reached the World Series.

'You see this city and the passion they have for this team. We're so appreciative of these fans,' Sirianni said. 'Look at this place. There's no place like this in the NFL. It's a hard-working city, it's a blue-collar city. We think that's the type of team we have.'

Even with Hurts almost a non-factor — he had 97 yards passing in the first half — the Eagles were firmly in control. Hurts finished 15 of 25 for 121 yards. His 1-yard rushing touchdown on Philadelphia's signature rugby-style QB sneak made it 28-7.

'It's been a lot. I'm not going to make this about me,' Hurts said. 'This city is a special city. They deserve everything, It's a special city. We have one more.'
