Eagles fans turn A.J. Brown's sideline book of choice into No. 1 best seller

Safe to say everyone will have a copy for the next playoff game, yes?

NBC Universal, Inc.

Saquon Barkely, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Lane Johnson, and Nick Sirianni all had the shared the same thoughts from their win over the Packers in the Wild Card round.

The last thing on everyone's bingo card for Eagles-Packers had to be A.J. Brown reading a book on the sideline and it becoming one of the hottest topics of the game.

Was that even on anyone's bingo card?

During Sunday's 22-10 win at Lincoln Financial Field, a FOX camera caught Brown reading his copy of "Inner Excellence" by Jim Murphy in between offensive series.

Following the victory in the locker room, Brown said that the book gives him a "sense of peace."

Naturally, Eagles fans took to finding the book on Amazon, and after flooding it with five-star reviews, the book found itself at the No. 1 spot on the best sellers list.

Now, lets focus on the reviews. Laugh out loud funny reviews that could've only been created by the best fans in the NFL.

(That's completely unbiased, by the way.)
