The Vermeil saga continues as the “Pigskin Pod Cats” pick up his story as the Eagles make the playoffs in Vermeil’s third year, race to Super Bowl XV the next year, where bad luck gave them no chance to beat the Oakland Raiders. Vermeil abruptly quit after the ’82 season citing “burnout,” and in so doing created a commonly used phrase. The coaching bug brought Vermeil back into the NFL 14 years later with the St. Louis Rams, where folk hero QB Kurt Warner came from nowhere to pilot the “Greatest Show on Turf” to victory in Super Bowl XXXIV. Vermeil retired again but returned with the Kansas City Chiefs. These days the coach enjoys returning to his birthplace in the Napa Valley where he helps run a vineyard.
