The Eagles players were full of energy and remained hydrated while Dallas players were cramping up, suffering heat stroke, and playing at half speed. Reason was, Rick Burkholder had the Eagles drink a cup of pickle brine before the game to help them retain fluids better. Kinda weird and I don't know if it actually helped or was placebo but it was his idea and it worked. Our guys were always well prepared and most of our questionable players on Thursday suited up on Sunday and performed.
