Byron Maxwell guarantees Eagles will advance to Super Bowl 50

Byron Maxwell has only been a Philadelphia Eagle for three months, but he's already feeling right at home.

"It's pretty much the same culture as in Seattle, I'm telling you," Maxwell told Jenny Vrentas of The MMQB. "We had guys that made smoothies in Seattle, too. All that music during practice. It really is the same."

Maxwell was a member of the Seahawks' Legion of Boom for the past four seasons and hopes to establish a similar identity in Philadelphia after signing a six-year, $63-million contract.

"If we could make it like we had in Seattle, that would be awesome," Maxwell said. "From the brotherhood standpoint, how we communicated, how we loved each other and respected each other’s game. If we can do that here, and duplicate that, we'll be great."

Great enough to advance to Super Bowl 50? Maxwell thinks so.

"You can take that as a guarantee," he said. "That's just me believing in my team and the product we’re going to put out there on the field. I really do believe that. I have no choice but to think that way."
