This quickly tuned into a safety concern, as one fan fell from the top of a street pole sign, and had to be taken to a local hospital after sustaining injuries.

In view of the frenzy in the streets, it's important to note that the Eagles season is still not over yet.

Although there is certainly much to be excited about, as they were led by star running back Saquon Barkley, who had 118 rushing yards and three touchdowns in their victory on Sunday.
The Eagles offense will hope to keep their momentum going as they face off with the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans on February 9.
To note, this will be a rematch from a few years ago, when Philadelphia lost 38-35 in Super Bowl LVII to Patrick Mahomes and company.
That is, the Chiefs are making their fifth Super Bowl appearance in the last six years, and are looking to complete the three-peat, while the Eagles are in search of their first win since the 2017 season, when they defeated Tom Brady's Patriots in Super Bowl LII.
