South Carolina Gamecocks coach and Philadelphia Eagles fan Dawn Staley playfully responded to NFL legend Tom Brady during his commentary on the Eagles-Commanders playoff game. Brady agreed with the no-call for pass interference on the Commanders, which helped them score a touchdown.
Before boarding a flight with her team, Staley posted on her X account (formerly Twitter), showing her watching the game on her iPad. She gave a shoutout to the Eagles in her caption and jokingly called out Brady for his comment.
"FLY. EAGLES. FLY. @Eagles See you on the other side of this flight! Punch in the endzone. Btw, that was pass interference. And tread lightly cutie pie @TomBrady"
Check out her post below.
And you can see the call that Staley refers to by Brady below.
It’s been an exciting season for the Eagles, and they've already surpassed many expectations, including those of Dawn Staley. Not many believed they would get to this point, but they’ve made it happen. With key roster upgrades during the offseason, the team now looks like one built to win immediately. This is something that Tom Brady himself has said.
Tom Brady predicts Dawn Staley-supported Eagles to get to the Super Bowl
Dawn Staley and every single Philadephia Eagle fan would have gone into their playoff game against Washington Commanders with a little sparkle in their eye because Tom Brady predicted that they would get the job done and move on to the Super Bowl.
Speaking to legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick, Brady said that the Eagles can defend, and if they play well, they'll get to the Super Bowl.
"The Eagles got a really great defense," Brady said. "They've got a D-Line that can make an impact. They can stop the run without having to shove extra bodies up there. We'll see how the injuries in the Eagles' secondary affect them. Certainly, the Eagles are the favorite for a reason. They've had an incredible season. If the Eagles play well, I think they're moving on."

The Eagles currently lead the Commanders 34-23 in the 3rd, but it's still anyone's game right now. No doubt that Dawn Staley will be hoping for good news when she lands.
