Eagles Employee Sent Doug Pederson, Jaguars Cheesesteaks for Win over Cowboys

The Jags' 40-34 overtime win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday was so appreciated by the Philadelphia Eagles that they sent them 35 cheesesteaks and 25 large fries.

Jeff Harris, the owner of Philly's Finest restaurant in Jacksonville, spoke with John Shipley about the transaction.

On Tuesday, we answer the phone that someone from the organization called and said they wanted to send Doug Pederson lunch to celebrate his win over the Cowboys. They love Doug Pederson so they want to give him a taste of Philadelphia.

The Eagles won their first ever Super Bowl under Pederson in Feb. The Eagles parted ways with him after the 2020 season, and he's in his first year as a head coach with a Jacksonville team that has already doubled its win total from last season.

The Eagles entered last Sunday with a two-game lead over the Cowboys for the division crown, but Philadelphia now needs just one win (or one Dallas loss) in the final three games to win the division. If the Eagles win, they will have home field advantage in the playoffs.

Philadelphia can take care of itself with a win over the Cowboys.
