Lol, this is just how the season has gone. The playcalling is bad, but that was just a down right pathetic attempt to get the ball in on the 1.. The Eagles just find ways to blow games. This is painful. No matter how bad it gets, I will still watch them. So many holes to fill and I don't even know where to start? Wentz is hurt, which makes this even worse.
A field goal would have given the Eagles an 8 point lead. What's wrong with that? Pederson is not learning well at all.

The only thing I hate about winning this game is that the goddamn Cowboys get the 1 seed.

You should be more concerned with the possibility that the Giants will get a wildcard position.

lol at the Eagles dialing up a double reverse with Carson Wentz as the lead blocker, right after he got his bell rung. Just asking for disaster.

Wentz was also in a handful of dangerous situations in the first match-up our teams had... he's young, he's talented... but you roll the dice enough in this league and you're going to get hurt.

The Eagles will find a way to lose this game. Poor execution and poor coaching dictates another loss tonight!

if defense can't hold here, they fall to 5-10, in a likelihood finishing season at 5-11

this after a 3-0 start. Did anyone really think this was a playoff team? no. At same time if they have almost any other coach, they probably get to 8 wins this season, with a clearer path to playoffs in 2017

now at 5-11, or 6-10. Im just not sure. I still feel like they are 1 elite WR and 1 elite CB away, with maybe another legit LB. But with this fucking coach and playcalling who knows

Honestly, I'd rather Doug get all the BS out of his system this year.

I'd prefer that he has a full season of tape on situations that he should have taken the points instead of going for the TD.

Completely OK with them rolling the dice a bunch in a season where they were not going to the playoffs then next season.

No call on the pass interference against Shepard now... not the worst call of the day by the officials, but the most influential.

To be fair, Shepard had a pretty good push-off at the top of his route. Carroll had a good hook that kept Shepard from making the catch, but Carroll hooked the hand that Shepard pushed off with.

Looked like Shepard was trying to break free of a hold at the top of the roue... Carroll was bear hugging him.

That ball hung up there forever... game time. Good win for the Eagles.

Manning had 1 too many of his patented (TM) bad INT's tonight.

And the officiating was horsesh!t... but enough about that. It happens.

See y'all next season.

Wentz played pretty well, he had some really nice escapes from pocket where if he was sacked might have changed the outcome of this game. However, he is clearly still sailing his passes in a few spots such as the ball to Green-Beckham that could have extended a driver into Giants territory, and one on Agholor where he put his hand up and deflected it which could have led to an INT

After two 3 and outs by the offense the defense saves the day!

24-20. i called it. Final 24-19.
Anyway, I just wanted a win.
Maybe we beat the Cowboys, who may rest many starters.
7-9 would be a decent record at this point. In the beginning of the season, we'd settle for that.
That would also keep Cleveland from getting a top ten pick.

Sadly that win locked up the #1 seed for Dallas. I hope they don't win a ring or I might puke.
