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 […]
In the first two weeks of the season, the Eagles put together two late comebacks that helped them start the season 2-0. In Week 5, they nearly gave one of those comebacks back to the opposition. The St. Louis Rams played a tough game against the Eagles on Sunday, taking everything that was given to […]
Last week, the Eagles got a reality check when another late rally fell short and they suffered their first loss of 2014. The Eagles get a chance to bounce back against the St. Louis Rams on Sunday. All signs point toward the Eagles finding a way to succeed. On paper, they are significantly better than […]
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 were one yard away from a potential 4-0 start and had two plays to get it. But inside the redzone, the plays simply weren't there again. That summed up a horrible day for the Eagles offense, who didn't manage a single point as the Eagles fell for the first time this season, losing […]
The Eagles have been the comeback kids. Three strong second-half performances have keyed a 3-0 start for the Eagles in 2014, putting them in the spotlight. On Sunday, they face another team with prospects of being a Super Bowl contender on a regular basis. With pieces in place that have made them NFC Champions in […]
When this game appeared on the schedule, you looked at the potential that both teams could be looking for a 3-1 start. The Eagles already have three wins, bringing a 3-0 record into the game. The San Francisco 49ers are just 1-2 after losses to the Bears and Cardinals. As one of the crucial tests […]
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 were presented with a chance at a 3-0 start was in 2012, the season of the “Dream Team.” The last time an Eagles team successfully started the season with a 3-0 record, the season ended in February. It’s been a long time since the Eagles started a season this way, […]
The Eagles needed another second-half comeback to pull off their second win of the season. This one involved much more drama and a lot of critical plays late in the game. Darren Sproles stole the show, but it was Malcolm Jenkins and Nick Foles adding their own key plays to the film this week. Here […]
