And after a back and forth battle in South Philly

The Eagles are now in sole possesion of first place in the NFC East and all I can say is WOW. If you would have told me over the summer that we would:
1. Trade Donovan Mcnabb 
2. Still have a winning season through week 10 and 
3. Be tops in the division

Could I tell you I would still be on the ground right now laughing at you, belly laughs with tears in my eyes because that would be asking too much. I mean yeah for the better part of the last decade, it was a given but that was with Donovan at quarter back and with all the flack he gets let's be real here Donovan Mcnabb knows how to win football games, now yes Mike Vick knows how to win football games too Donovan has just had more success for a longer stretch of time.

And this game had me on the edge of my seat, if you were to tell me that we would drop 4 pretty much guaranteed TD passes, give up 14 straight points and the lead as well as get a field goal blocked and we would still win. Man I wouldn't believe you, but they pulled it out. As I said in the post I made at half time those two missed touchdown catches hurt and then the third drop by Maclin this was wacky world tonight. Jackson, Avant, and Maclin all dropped or missed passes that they are usually money on, nobody could have foreseen that and we still get a win. I can tell you one thing I know whats gonna be the focus in practice this week lol.

And our DEFENSE was awesome yes they gave up two TDs late one of them was after a penalty and the other after a turnover deep on our side of the field but they got five take aways and only turned the ball over once. Huh what do you mean the defense only turned the ball over once? Our second give away was on a Fumble by Asante Samuel after he had intercepted a pass by Eli Manning, Ahmad Bradshaw got his helmet on the ball just before Asanted was touched down. We got the ball back a few plays later but man was that a wacky game.

So Philadelphia Eagles, Number 1 in the NFC East for now next week Chicago

Whew and I thought last week was awesome

59 points, let me let that sink in for a second 59 points through 3 quarters. So the fact that we just cruised through the 4th quarter wow.

333 yards passing, 80 yards rushing, 4 TD passes, 2 rushing TD's. For those who say Mike Vick isn't a QB put that in your pipe and smoke it. We did it with long passes, long runs, Defense all we would have needed was a special teams touchdown to have made it a complete all phases of the game victory.

Yes we gave up 28 points, but it was garbage time for a good 50 minutes. I mean when I say we jumped on them in 16 minutes Philadelphia had scored 35 points. I'm sorry 35 UNANSWERED points. It seems yes we can be susceptible to the long pass but first Peyton and now Donovan has seen how well our secondary can lock down. Whew, I mean full throttle 45 minutes football. I can't say 60 minutes because the 4th quarter we were just cruisin basically spending time off the clock.

Everytime you turned your head the football was crossing into the endzone I mean 8 touchdowns scored by Philadelphia WOW, my wife will love it she has David kers on her fantasy team 11 points for akAers tonight. Plus a touchdown for Lesean McCoy I think she got 18 points but needed 20+ though so it was bitter sweet for the wife.

I love an eagles win, I love when we avenge losses but man this one was just wow. I hope we can play within ourselves come sunday when we play the Giants.

I was only gonna watch the first half of the Memphis Miami game but its turned into a great game. So I think I will stay up and watch the rest of it. Hope everyone is having a great night
