PHILADELPHIA - Vic Fangio recited a list of names he knew from heart. Zack Baun. Nakobe Dean. Oren Burks. Isaiah Rodgers. Moro Ojomo. Nolan Smith. C.J. Gardner-Johnson. Quinyon Mitchell.

The doors to the Eagles' indoor practice facility opened, and there, towering above swaths of stretching players, were twin images of the Lombardi Trophy, set behind two bold words: World Champions. The Eagles have begun practicing under that plurality. Nick Sirianni, fresh off signing a multi-year extension, strolled past a slew of incomers wearing their new digs for the first time.

Jalen Hurts doesn't call it the Tush Push. No, he likes to keep it standard: The quarterback sneak. But the only thing standard about the play that involves Hurts getting shoved by a teammate or two in the physical region that defies verbal grace is the consistency with which the Philadelphia Eagles pick up first downs, score touchdowns and confound those who haven't yet found a way to stop it.
