There were several times the Eagles were on the verge of getting things turned in the right direction. And every time they were, they turned things back into Seattle's favor. The Seahawks controlled the play and held the Eagles silent. At the final whistle, the Eagles finished with just two touchdowns. Defensively, all was […]
The Eagles were on the goal line in the closing moments of the game with a chance for a touchdown. All they needed was a yard. They couldn't get it. Instead, the Eagles settled for a field goal and put it in the hands of a defense that had been solid all afternoon. They were […]
The Eagles didn’t need to do anything overly special to defeat the Giants. More than anything, Sunday night’s win was about execution.

Facing the Rams in Week 5, the Eagles opened up a 27-point lead and nearly let it slip away. In Week 6, facing a division rival, they opened up the same lead and never looked back. The Eagles scored 10 points in the first quarter and 10 more in the second quarter to open up […]

As the game entered the final moments of the third quarter, the Eagles were having the game that everyone envisioned possible. A 27-point lead opened up and the Eagles were running away with it.

When the Eagles moved the ball into the redzone against the 49ers, you had the feeling that somehow, they were on their way to finding a way again. Reality is cruel, but the football gods finally handed the Eagles a loss they deserved. A five-point loss should not write off a season and it should […]
The Eagles third win of the season didn't feature the late-game comeback that the previous two wins did, but it did involve a comeback that starred Nick Foles and Jordan Matthews. Four touchdowns were scored in Sunday's 37-34 win for the Eagles. Three were on passes to wide receivers. The other was a kick return. […]
The last time the Eagles started a season 3-0 was 10 years ago in 2004. That chance has presented itself on Sunday afternoon when the 2014 Eagles play their first divisional game of the season. After Monday's win over the Colts, the Eagles may have been flying high. But there were still many things they […]
